A wave of price predictions from prominent analysts has put XRP in the spotlight, with some expecting a substantial increase to reach $10 by year-end 2025. Popular crypto analysts like Edoardo Farina and Crypto Patel believe this is within reach, citing factors such as growing DeFi applications and increasing institutional interest. Current market trends show XRP trading around $2.30 after reaching highs of $3.30 earlier in the year. While gains have been seen since the start of the year, a 30% decline from that peak highlights market volatility. Farina predicts a further surge past the $3 mark by June and a break past $10 would require a significant rally of over 370%, exceeding current levels. Crypto Patel also sees XRP’s potential for a breakout, highlighting strong support at $1.70 and a clear need to break through the psychological $3 resistance. The technical patterns of Elliott Wave analysis by XForceGlobal suggest the possibility of this breakthrough but without a precise timeframe. Analysts like Cas Abbé highlight three factors – U.S.-based XRP ETF approval, increased token utility, and broader market recovery – as potential catalysts for a rally. However, these are speculative factors that are closely monitored by traders. While some analysts see $10 as achievable in the near future (Farina & Patel), others offer more long-term predictions. Bitget’s Ryan Lee predicts it might hit $10 around 2030, while Changelly suggests a similar timeline for the token. These projections consider macro trends and regulatory developments that could impact XRP’s adoption and liquidity. Notably, Crypto Patel provides six reasons for his short-term bullish outlook, including regulatory clarity in the US regarding XRP’s classification, potential ETF approval, and the launch of Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin. Additionally, he points to growing interest in altcoins and a recent price movement above his personal entry point as signs of rising demand.
