Prominent XRP community member, XRP Dragon (@DRAGON_XRP66), has sparked debate by suggesting that XRP’s historical rise from $0.003 to over $3 suggests a future surge of 99,900% to reach a target price of $3,000. This bold prediction stems from past rallies that saw XRP jump considerably before reaching its all-time high in 2017/2018. However, many remain skeptical, pointing out the fundamental shift towards real-world adoption and utility compared to the speculative frenzy of 2017. Ripple’s expanding partnerships, strengthened payment infrastructure, and resilience against regulatory challenges are seen as crucial factors that could potentially replicate this past performance or even exceed it.
