XRP Could Hit $22 by December 2025? Top Analyst Says Soo!

Ripple’s native token, XRP, has just climbed to the third spot in the global crypto rankings, sitting right behind Bitcoin and Ethereum, with its market cap reaching $164.29 billion. At the same time, popular crypto influencer Alex Cobb has made a bold prediction, saying XRP could hit $22.54 by December 2025.

But what makes him so confident that XRP can reach this level?

Analyst Predicts XRP Price to Hit $22

In his recent post, Cobb used humor to send a serious message. He shared a meme showing XRP skeptics regretting their decision as the coin rises above $22.54. It was a playful way to say something clear, don’t ignore XRP’s potential.

If XRP reaches that price, it would mean a massive 8X jump, or about 767% gain from where it is now. Such a rise could push XRP’s market value to around $1.32 trillion, possibly putting it ahead of Ethereum as the second-largest crypto.

Even veteran trader Peter Brandt, once critical of XRP, now believes it could hit a $502 billion market cap, and some believe it could go even higher.

History of Proving Doubters Wrong

This isn’t the first time XRP has shocked those who doubted it. Between November 2024 and January 2025, XRP surged by 7X, forcing well-known critics to rethink their positions. 

Even Davinci Jeremie, a die-hard Bitcoin fan, admitted XRP could climb past $20, recognizing the community’s strong push and Ripple’s progress.

Whales Buying More XRP

Recently, XRP whales have accumulated a massive amount of XRP. Right now, 2,743 wallets each hold over 1 million XRP, the highest number ever. These wallets now control nearly half of all XRP in circulation.

Meanwhile, this big buying wave comes as XRP hit $2.80 after a strong 10% daily jump. The price spike also forced $31 million in short positions to close, catching bearish traders off guard.

After hitting $2.97, XRP pulled back but found support at $2.70. It’s now holding above $2.75. If buyers push it past $2.90 with good volume, XRP could reach $3.20 or higher soon.
