Crypto Rover’s $XRP Target Spans Prices Below and Above Historical High
$XRP traded around $1.51 on September 24, according to CoinMarketCap. Reaching Rover’s lower target of $3.20 would require the token to more than double from that reference price, while a move to $4.80 would represent approximately 3.18 times its value.
The forecast also spans prices on either side of $XRP’s historical high. CoinMarketCap lists that record at $3.84, placing Rover’s $3.20 lower bound below the peak and his $4.80 upper bound 25% above it.
Those endpoints describe different outcomes: the lower end would represent a recovery without exceeding CoinMarketCap’s recorded high, while the upper end would establish a higher price in that series. Neither endpoint is presented as a December 2026 closing-price forecast.
Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana Feature in the Same Outlook
Rover’s broader forecast places Bitcoin between $135,000 and $190,000 and Ethereum between $7,000 and $9,500. He also outlined ranges for $BNB, Solana, and Chainlink alongside $XRP. All six targets cover the next 12–18 months.

$XRP 2026 Price Predictions Include $2.80 and $10 Targets
Several other $XRP forecasts published during 2026 use shorter deadlines and different assumptions.
Standard Chartered lowered its year-end 2026 $XRP target to $2.80 in February, cutting its previous $8 projection by 65%. The revision accompanied reductions in the bank’s Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana forecasts following the market’s February selloff.
In the investor note, Geoffrey Kendrick attributed the changes to weaker digital-asset prices and expectations of further near-term declines. He nevertheless maintained that $XRP and Ethereum could benefit from growth in stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets.
Vincent Van Code outlined an optimistic $6–$10 $XRP range for the end of 2026 in an April 22 forecast. His AI-assisted modeling incorporated assumptions about settlement activity, liquidity provision, and adoption across the $XRP ecosystem. He described the projections as speculative.
Van Code’s model paired the price range with an estimated $400 billion–$800 billion in annual on-chain bridged volume. That figure was part of his projected scenario, rather than a measurement of completed settlement activity.
$XRP Queen separately forecast $10 during 2026 in February. Her argument centered on anticipated growth in payment corridors, tokenization, stablecoin activity, and institutional usage, rather than a technical price pattern.
Rover’s $4.80 upper target remains below both Van Code’s $6 lower bound and $XRP Queen’s $10 forecast. However, the predictions do not share a common deadline: Rover’s outlook covers 12–18 months, while those two calls explicitly target 2026.
