Many people in the market are waiting for XRP to break past its highest price ever, but some analysts are already predicting that it could eventually reach prices in the triple digits.
Since May 8, XRP has been slowly moving upward as part of a larger market recovery, which recently saw Bitcoin surpass the $100,000 mark. Even though XRP is still trading in the $2 range, it has reached the higher end for the first time in nearly two months.
BarriC Predicts $100 XRP by 2025
As excitement grows around XRP possibly hitting $3, some voices in the market are already setting their sights much higher—toward the $100 mark. Among those making bold predictions is BarriC, a crypto commentator who recently shared a confident outlook on X, claiming that XRP reaching $100 could be just the beginning of a bigger move that might eventually take the token to four-digit prices. He believes that a surge to $1,000 could happen much faster than most people think.
BarriC believes XRP could reach $100 sometime in 2025, which is a very bold prediction since the price would need to go up by more than 3,800% from its current level of $3.55. His forecast is one of the most daring, especially compared to other analysts who think $100 is possible but expect it to take several years and rely on major growth in the global crypto market.
Experts Predict $100 XRP But Not Soon
Financial expert Linda Jones believes XRP could eventually reach $100, but she doesn’t expect that to happen this year. Back in March 2023, Matthew Brienen, the Chief Operating Officer at CryptoCharged, boldly predicted that XRP could trade anywhere between $100 and $1,000. However, he thinks this could happen over the next ten years.
Analysts from crypto platforms Telegaon and Changelly also think XRP could hit $100, but like others, they don’t expect it anytime soon. Changelly’s analysts predict XRP might reach $100 by 2034, while Telegaon expects it to happen between 2035 and 2040.
Forecast for XRP Price in 2030
As blockchain technology continues to grow and gain wider adoption in the next five years, the popularity of cryptocurrencies is expected to rise, benefiting XRP as well. If Ripple’s ongoing legal issues with the SEC are settled positively, the coin could see a boost in market trust, potentially driving its price higher. By 2030, the minimum value for XRP could be around $6.23, with a maximum potential price of $8.53.
BarriC Sees $100 as First Step Toward $1,000 XRP
BarriC offers the boldest prediction among market experts, seeing $100 as just the beginning for XRP. In a recent statement, he suggested that after reaching $100 in 2025, the coin could quickly jump to $1,000 by 2026 or 2027.
However, many analysts, even those who are optimistic about XRP’s future, think that reaching $100 this year is highly unlikely. Earlier in 2025, financial expert Rajat Soni called out those predicting an XRP surge to $100 in this cycle, even going so far as to say such people might be mentally impaired.
XRP Community Responds to Soni’s Remarks
Supporters of XRP have not held back in reacting to Soni’s harsh comments. Some argue that the idea of XRP reaching $100 is no more unrealistic than Bitcoin enthusiasts predicting that all global assets will eventually be valued in Bitcoin. When questioned about XRP’s future, Soni doubled down on his stance, calling the asset a “shitcoin” and predicting it will ultimately collapse to zero.
However, many in the XRP community believe Soni’s latest comments stem from jealousy, pointing to XRP’s recent strong performance compared to Bitcoin.
Final Thoughts
Predictions for XRP’s future price vary widely. Some, like BarriC, believe it could reach $100 by 2025, possibly even higher prices soon after. However, most analysts expect this to take longer, with forecasts stretching into the 2030s. While XRP’s future depends on blockchain adoption and a resolution to Ripple’s legal issues, the coin’s recent performance and strong community support suggest it could experience significant growth, despite skepticism from figures like Rajat Soni.
