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.
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.
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:
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.
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:
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.
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.
No. Ripple CEO says there’s no IPO planned for now, making any XRP-related IPO speculation uncertain.
An IPO could boost confidence and demand for XRP, but the price impact depends on adoption, utility, and investor sentiment.
Analysts suggest XRP could realistically reach $3 to $20 by 2030, depending on adoption and market conditions.
