NBA Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen has gone viral with a bold new poll, asking crypto enthusiasts whether XRP will reach $10 by 2026. 

Pippen’s XRP Price Prediction Sparks Discussion

His post on X, shared with his 728,000 followers, features ultra-bullish predictions for several top cryptocurrencies. 

Notably, the six-time NBA championship winner with the Chicago Bulls has again stepped into the crypto spotlight with a series of 2026 forecasts. Among them is a prediction that XRP could climb to $10.

The prediction was posted as part of a poll, allowing users to vote on which outcome they believe is most likely. Pippen’s tweet includes forecasts for Bitcoin hitting $233,000, Ethereum (ETH) reaching $10,000, and Solana (SOL) surging to $1,000.

Within the comment section, many users, including one Travis Turnbull, voiced support for the idea that XRP could hit $10, with others even believing 2026 is too far to reach the price target.

Notably, XRP’s future remains closely tied to broader market development. While recent developments have shown progress, the $10 target remains a significant jump from XRP’s current trading price. As of this press time, XRP trades at $3.12, a 1.4% decline in the past day, reducing its monthly gain to 42%. 

Can XRP Reach $10 in 2026?

Notably, many prominent analysts have shared their bold predictions on XRP’s future. One NFT project founder suggested that XRP could hit $10 by next year, provided Bitcoin’s rally pushes toward the $250,000 mark. 

Similarly, Bitcoin analyst Dennis Liu has updated his previous XRP forecast from $4–$5 to $10, pointing to a growing wave of bullish momentum building around the asset.

Another bold prediction also came from Aaron Arnold, host of Altcoin Daily. He shared a bullish yet “realistic” $11 price target for XRP by 2025. 

From the XRP’s current price, $11 would mark a 260% surge, pushing its market cap past $650 billion. This would place XRP among the top five global assets, ahead of giants like Mastercard and Tencent.

Broader Predictions

Meanwhile, Pippen’s predictions don’t stop at XRP. The former NBA star also posed the possibility of Bitcoin reaching $233,000 and Ethereum hitting $10,000 by 2026. 

Also, Pippen’s post went beyond price speculation. He included predictions involving UBER drivers talking about crypto project Game5ball, Tesla’s Optimus robot delivering food at EV diners, a 2026 alien invasion, and even the return of late rapper 2Pac.

The tweet reflects Pippen’s lighthearted engagement with the crypto community. Notably, he has previously claimed to have met Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, in a dream and is widely recognized for supporting Bitcoin and other top digital assets.
