Ripple's Cryptocurrency Value Potential for a $100 High
Ripple, the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation, is expected to see significant growth in the coming years, with some experts predicting a price of $100 per coin. Crypto analyst Zach Rector, for instance, believes this could happen under certain conditions.
According to Rector, three main factors drive the growth of a cryptocurrency: institutional adoption, legal clarity, and new fund flows. Bitcoin and Ethereum have already demonstrated these factors, and Ripple (XRP) is poised to be the next potential candidate to follow.
Ripple has been making strides in these areas. The company has announced progress in institutional adoption, with partners like Bank of New York Mellon adopting digital asset custody. Ripple is also developing its own stablecoin, RLUSD, and has applied for a US bank license in July 2025. The company aims to gain access to the Federal Reserve payment system, and related announcements could come as regulatory clarity advances and related XRP ETF products launch around mid to late 2025.
The approval of an ETF for Ripple (XRP) is expected to trigger a "super cycle" of new funds flowing into the cryptocurrency. This ETF-induced influx of funds would bring increased volume and greater price stability to Ripple (XRP).
Rector argues that it would only take a net inflow of around $100-$300 billion to reach the $100 price target over time. This is significant, considering that the small fund flows worth tens of millions of dollars were enough to increase Ripple's market capitalization by tens of billions of dollars last year.
However, Rector doesn't expect Ripple (XRP) to reach $100 anytime soon. He believes a more realistic base case for the price of Ripple (XRP) by 2026 is in the range of $20-$30.
It's important to note that the price of Ripple (XRP) is not determined by its past performance. Crypto trading activities have high risk and volatility, and it's crucial to always do your own research and use cold cash before investing.
