XRP pundits are speculating on massive upside potential after Twenty One Capital CEO Jack Mallers made one of his boldest predictions for Bitcoin.
During a live interview on NYSE TV, Mallers confidently declared that Bitcoin is going “higher, higher,” and when pressed, added, “a lot higher.”
He projected that Bitcoin could surge 200x from its current price of around $115,900, targeting the global $500 trillion savings market.
This ultra-bullish Bitcoin outlook has renewed excitement within the XRP community, prompting speculation about how high the XRP price could climb in such a scenario.
Specifically, Digital Asset Investor, a well-known XRP influencer, responded to Mallers’ claim by stating that if Bitcoin surges 200x, XRP price could rally 1000x.
Jack Mallers’ 200x Bitcoin Thesis
Mallers explained that global wealth across real estate, equities, and precious metals totals roughly $900 trillion, with about half of it primarily serving as savings. In his view, Bitcoin is now competing for a portion of that market.
He emphasized that Bitcoin is aiming to capture a share of the estimated $500 trillion global savings market. Currently, Bitcoin accounts for only around $2.3 trillion of that.
From a purchasing power perspective, this suggests massive growth potential up to 200 times its current value.
His firm, Twenty One Capital, is backing this prediction with action. Since its launch in April, the company has acquired 43,514 BTC, worth over $5 billion. Institutional investors like Tether, Bitfinex, Strategy, and SoftBank are also supporting the strategy.
For context, a 200x increase would put Bitcoin at over $23.1 million per BTC. Interestingly, MicroStrategy has also projected that Bitcoin could reach $13 million per coin by the 2040s.
This level of ambitious growth is raising questions about the future positions of top altcoins like XRP.
XRP Price Potential in a 200x Bitcoin Scenario
If Bitcoin truly achieves a 200x increase, Digital Asset Investor argues that XRP could outperform even more dramatically, rising 1000x from today’s price of around $3.
A 1000x gain would place the XRP price at an astonishing $3,000 per coin. With a circulating supply of 59.77 billion tokens, such a price would give XRP a market cap of approximately $179 trillion.

Meanwhile, industry figures like Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson have previously suggested a similar 1000x potential for ADA relative to Bitcoin’s growth.
With this projection, Hoskinson aims to highlight that Bitcoin’s upside may be more limited, while smaller-cap altcoins like ADA and XRP could have more room to run.
Meanwhile, XRP supporters have continued to call for even more aggressive price targets, well beyond the 1000x mark.
Bolder Predictions for XRP
For instance, crypto CEO Jake Claver recently suggested that the XRP price could reach $2,500 if major macroeconomic shifts trigger a global “supply shock”. He argues that price is driven by available supply, not market cap, and dismisses critiques that such a valuation is unrealistic.
Claver has also claimed that the XRP price could eventually reach $10,000. He reasons that higher XRP prices would allow institutions to move large sums with fewer tokens, increasing network efficiency.
He cited Ripple’s own example: sending $1 million requires 1 million XRP at $1, but only 100,000 XRP at $10 — and just 100 XRP if the price is $10,000.
While critics view these predictions as unrealistic, Claver continues to dismiss market cap concerns. Still, skeptics caution that such narratives may mislead investors into chasing improbable short-term gains.
