    XRP Price Prediction if Ripple IPO Goes Public

    • currency-symbol XRP $ 2.30 (-3.53%) top looser
    Story Highlights
    • Grok AI predicts XRP could soar to $735 if Ripple matches tech giants post-IPO. Experts remain skeptical.

    • Ripple IPO speculation fuels bold XRP price targets ($440-$735), but CEO Garlinghouse sees no near-term plans.

    A new post by Italian crypto expert Fabio Zuccara is turning heads in the XRP community. It explores a bold scenario: what if Ripple goes public and eventually matches the market value of tech giants like Google, Apple, or Microsoft? What would that mean for XRP’s price?

    Let’s break it down.

    Ripple’s Current Status

    At present, XRP is the fourth-largest cryptocurrency, with a market capitalization of $137.36 billion and a 24-hour trading volume of $3.11 billion. XRP has a circulating supply of 58.62 billion coins, and its current price stands at $2.34 — marking a staggering 343.1% increase in the past year.

    Meanwhile, Ripple Labs, the company behind XRP’s technology, has an estimated valuation of $10.88 billion.

    Grok’s XRP Price Prediction if Ripple Goes Public

    As per Grok, the AI chatbot from Elon Musk’s xAI, to simulate how XRP’s price could evolve based on Ripple’s hypothetical IPO and massive future growth.

    Here’s what the Grok-powered scenario analysis suggests:

    • If Ripple’s valuation matches Google ($2.021 trillion), XRP could reach $440.46
    • If Ripple matches Apple ($3.155 trillion), XRP could hit $687.47
    • If Ripple equals Microsoft ($3.376 trillion), XRP could soar to $735.58

    Note: Although Ripple and XRP are separate entities, the analysis assumes XRP’s value is closely tied to Ripple’s success — a common perspective among many investors.

    XRP to $735: Is It a Realistic Prediction?

    Despite the excitement, many crypto analysts are skeptical. Most experts suggest that XRP could reach between $3 and $20 by 2030 in a more realistic scenario.

    Crypto analyst Zuccara acknowledges that a $735 price point for XRP would require:

    • Global crypto adoption
    • Clear and supportive regulations
    • Massive institutional investment
    • And above all, Ripple actually going public

    Ripple IPO: Not Happening Anytime Soon

    While the idea of a Ripple IPO is appealing to many investors, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has previously clarified that there are no plans for an IPO in the near future.

    Until Ripple officially announces otherwise, such predictions — while fascinating — remain speculative.

    Final Thoughts

    While Grok’s AI-based scenario adds an interesting layer to the XRP price discussion, it’s important to remember the difference between possibility and probability. The $735 target is based on ideal conditions that may not unfold.

    Still, the post has successfully reignited conversations around Ripple’s future — and what that could mean for XRP holders.
