Investors could see their holdings of 1,000, 5,000 or 10,000 XRP skyrocket to $1 million worth at various price milestones.
XRP has not performed as admirably as some market participants expected in the ongoing bull market. Notably, investors had believed the July 2023 judgment in the Ripple vs. SEC case, which declared XRP a non-security, could lift the legal pressure, eventually leading to an impressive performance in the bull run.
Accumulation Amid Bullish Expectations
However, these expectations have not come to fruition, as XRP continues to underperform while other cryptocurrencies record gains. XRP is down by more than 18% this year, making it the only crypto asset on the top 10 list with a year-to-date decline. Despite this bearish trend, market watchers remain unfazed.
Projections of ambitious price targets have surfaced, with some identifying two to three-digit prices. For instance, market commentator and game developer Chad Steingraber predicted XRP to reach a peak of $250 this cycle. Meanwhile, analyst EGRAG expects XRP to hit $27, citing historical patterns.
Other analysts have projected more realistic targets, such as $5, and the $8 to $13 range. Ultimately, the general argument is that XRP would not miss out on this bull run like it did the previous one. These bullish expectations have led to a sustained accumulation trend across different tiers of addresses.
How 1,000, 5,000 and 10,000 XRP Can Yield $1M
Considering this accumulation campaign and the expectations, The Crypto Basic assessed how much XRP needs to grow in this bull cycle to yield $1 million for varying tiers of holdings. The assessment considered investors holding 1,000, 5,000 and 10,000 XRP tokens.
The 1,000 tokens are currently valued at $497.6 against the current price of $0.4976 per XRP. For these tokens to skyrocket to $1 million, XRP would need to appreciate by astronomical margins. The 1,000 tokens would be worth $1 million at an XRP price of $1,000. Analysts BarriC and JackTheRippler argued two months back that XRP is capable of reaching $1,000, representing a 201,228% increase.
Meanwhile, investors with 5,000 XRP in their portfolio would need XRP at a lower price to reach $1 million. These tokens, currently worth $2,483, would hit $1 million if XRP reaches a $200 price. Interestingly, cryptocurrency analyst Javon Marks has persistently contended that XRP could breach $200, marking a 40,165% price jump.
For addresses holding 10,000 XRP, if the price of the token hits a three-digit value of $100, their portfolio would surge to $1 million. Industry player Andrew Forte casually suggested in March that XRP could clinch $100 in 2037. While $100 is the least ambitious of the three targets, it still remains highly improbable.
