XRP could be gearing up for a major breakout. Experts predict that XRP could go as high as $10 by the year’s end. In an interview with Altcoin Daily, crypto analyst George Tung, the founder of CryptosRUs, said that he sees XRP hitting between $8 and $10 by the end of 2025.
He pointed to XRP’s ability to survive multiple market cycles and its solid fundamentals as the key reasons for his bold prediction.
Tung called the $8-$10 a conservative estimate for XRP. The rising institutional interest with several XRP ETFs in the making is the key catalyst, he says. If the ETFs are approved, it could unlock massive demand and push XRP much higher in this cycle.
In a broader market outlook, he expects Bitcoin to climb 1.5x to 2x, Ethereum 3x to 4x, and sees XRP’s 4x to 5x potential as realistic, especially if market sentiment improves and altcoin liquidity returns. He predicts Bitcoin could peak between $200K and $300K this cycle.
He was asked if $1000 could be turned to $100,000 by year-end, to which Tung warned against chasing huge gains without being aware of the risks involved. While memecoins like Pepe have made headlines, Tung noted that those big wins are rare now. He recommends users to put most of their money into solid, proven projects and allot just 5-10% for risky plays like memecoin.
Virtual Bacon sees a buying opportunity for XRP, but only if it drops 20% or more compared to Bitcoin. He says this could play out in two ways: XRP falls while Bitcoin stays steady, or Bitcoin pumps and XRP lags. Both cases could push XRP into a strong value range. He calls it a classic mid-cycle pattern that often surprises the market.
Davinci Jeremie, who said “XRP is going to zero”, now sees strong institutional interest and believes it could hit $24. XRP researcher SMQKE thinks XRP could beat Ethereum this year and go up to at least $6. Another expert, Egrag Crypto, expects XRP to rise to $13 or even $22, based on strong signs from its yearly price chart.
Dark Defender says XRP is making a new pattern on the weekly chart that could push it up to $18.22 to $23.20 soon. He called $5.85 a key mid-level to watch and said this move matches their previous targets and a pattern from November 2024. He also shared that there may be some resistance along the way.
George Tung predicts XRP could see 4x-5x growth, while Ethereum is forecast for 3x-4x. XRP’s focus on payments offers unique potential.
Increased adoption by financial institutions, especially through Ripple’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) system, could significantly boost XRP’s demand and price.
Rising institutional interest and the approval of XRP ETFs are seen as major catalysts, potentially unlocking massive demand and pushing XRP prices much higher.
