In the last seven days, the cryptocurrency market experienced a significant upsurge, with the value of most crypto assets, including Ripple $1‘s XRP token, increasing. This rise boosted the global market cap to $2.22 trillion and increased trading volume to $72.41 billion.
Crypto Bitlord’s XRP Prediction
Crypto analyst Crypto Bitlord stated that XRP is poised for a major breakout soon. His prediction about this token, which has shown weak performance in the past, has sparked much debate in the community.
“I believe XRP is ready. I expect a vertical parabolic explosion within the next 24 hours. Don’t sleep; you can make millions by timing this movement.”

Crypto Bitlord claims that his previous XRP predictions have helped people earn significant profits and suggests that a similar situation will occur this time. However, hours after his post, the anticipated surge in XRP’s price did not materialize. Instead, the price fell by 1% to $0.5856 today.
Crypto Tank’s XRP Price Forecast and Conditions
Another crypto analyst, Crypto Tank, proposes that XRP’s price could reach $100. He notes, however, that this would require the token to capture 10% of SWIFT’s daily transaction volume.
“Do yourself and your mental health a favor and ignore these chartists making different dollar predictions. Most of them have no idea. To give you an idea, 10% of SWIFT’s daily volume equates to a $100 XRP. Now add up the volumes of hundreds of banks worldwide. It’s impossible to grasp what’s happening.”
Crypto Tank
Crypto Tank’s statement divided the crypto community. Some believe this target can be achieved, while others feel it is unrealistic under current market conditions. Following a brief recovery, XRP’s price has fallen again and is currently trading at $0.5856. Crypto Bitlord’s prediction of a parabolic rise within 24 hours did not come true. Investors should focus on the overall market trend and fundamental analyses instead of speculative predictions. If XRP’s market cap reaches $118 billion, as it did on July 1, 2018, the expected price would be $1.18. A circulation supply reaching 100 billion over the years would necessitate a market cap of half a trillion for a $5 price target. Therefore, aiming for $100 seems unreasonable, as even a $10 price would imply a market cap of $1 trillion.
