XRP to Hit $14 Trillion Market Cap? Analyst Predicts Astonishing Surge

As an experienced cryptocurrency analyst, I find The Great Matsby’s bullish prediction for XRP intriguing, but also warrant a healthy dose of skepticism. While it is true that XRP has historically seen significant price movements following tight Bollinger Band squeezes, the magnitude of this predicted surge seems unprecedented.


An analyst specializing in cryptocurrencies has recently expressed a bullish outlook on XRP, the token associated with the XRP Ledger, projecting that its price could potentially soar by an astounding 58,000%, reaching a value of $250. This prediction would result in a market capitalization of approximately $14 trillion for XRP.

The renowned analyst, nicknamed “The Great Matsy,” took to microblogging platform X (previously referred to as Twitter) to boldly share his forecast, which was derived from a specialized technical pattern called the Bollinger Band squeeze.

The analyst noted that XRP‘s monthly Bollinger Bands are presently among the most compressed in their historical record. Such tight squeezes have frequently been followed by substantial price shifts for XRP in the past.

Significantly, XRP experienced a significant price surge of over 60,000% the last time it underwent a comparable squeeze in its price action. This occurred when XRP went from approximately $0.006 to reaching an all-time high near $4 before correcting. Currently, XRP is priced at around $0.44, and if a similar occurrence were to take place now, it could potentially push the price beyond $250.

By 2028, could Ripple (XRP) potentially increase in value by approximately 60,000% to reach around $250?— The Great Mattsby (@matthughes13) July 11, 2024

As a researcher studying the cryptocurrency market, I can imagine describing a significant price increase for XRP in this way: “Should XRP experience such unprecedented price growth, its total market capitalization would reach an astounding $14 trillion. This figure surpasses the current combined value of all cryptocurrencies by a large margin and outstrips the market cap of Apple, the world’s most valuable company, with its $3.5 trillion evaluation.”

Based on CompaniesMarketCap’s report, gold holds the second-largest market capitalization, exceeding $16.1 trillion. Meanwhile, some analysts predict a possible price drop for XRP.

Using Elliot Wave Theory as a guide, the analyst issued a cautionary note: XRP might experience a significant drop in value within the upcoming quarter, potentially reaching a minimum price of $0.07.
