Popular Bitcoin and crypto analyst, MagicPoopCannon, has provided a $400 forecast of XRP by 2026. However, in the short term, Magic sees XRP falling to the price range of $0.13 to $0.09. He explained:
A convincing technical case could be made that, sometime around the year 2026, XRP could be worth about $400. Not kidding.
Obviously, more short term pain is in the cards for XRP, as well as all of crypto. There is a good chance that XRP will fall to the 0.13 to 0.09 range, but I think it is likely to have a monumental recovery.
XRP’s Value Could Hit $4.98 by 2030.
In another analysis of XRP, the team at Finder.com sees the digital asset rising to a value of $4.98 by 2030.

Their forecast of XRP was summarized through the following statement and accompanying chart.
Looking further down the road, the panel estimates XRP’s value to hit $3.61 by the end of 2025 and $4.98 to close out 2030.
XRP Thrives on Speculation and Hype – Finder.com Analysts.
On an individual level, Finder.com’s analysts differ on the long-term future of XRP. Matthew Harry, the head of funds at DigitalX Asset Management, does not see XRP’s value rising on anything other than speculation. He states the following:
The XRP token is worthless for anything other than speculation. The underlying technology is terrific but the token itself does not currently have a use, it simply attracts speculators as it is cheap and an easily digestible value prop – none of which is born out in the token.
Daniel Polotsky, Founder and chairman of CoinFlip, is of a similar opinion that XRP’s value is derived from hype than actual usage. He said:
I believe XRP does not offer anything proprietary compared to its peers to justify its relatively large market cap.
I think that the project has a lot of inflated interest due to retail investors ignoring its market cap and looking at its per-unit price (less than $1), and erroneously thinking that because it’s ‘so cheap’ it will grow a lot faster than its peers.
This is simply a great marketing trick, but eventually, the lack of fundamentals of the project will be reflected in its price as the industry matures.
