Edoardo Farina, the founder of Alpha Lions Academy, has shared an ambitious prediction on how a strategic investment in XRP could lead to life-changing profits.
In a post on X, Farina outlined a scenario where an initial investment of $44,000 in XRP could balloon into $5.5 million. He suggested committing over 50% of one’s annual income to position for this hypothetical windfall.
The Math Behind the Potential XRP Windfall
Specifically, Farina noted that someone with an annual salary of $80K could invest $44K of that sum in XRP. Purchasing $44,000 worth of XRP at its current price of $2.40 per token would give investors 18,333 XRP.
Interestingly, he speculated that XRP’s unit price could rise to $300 in 10 years. This projection suggests an astonishing 12,400% price growth from the current level. As a result, those 18,000 XRP would be worth $5.5 million—an increase of over 120 times the original investment.
Putting things into perspective, Farina highlighted that this windfall could provide the equivalent of nearly 69 years’ worth of an $80,000 annual salary with just a one-year $3,600 monthly investment.
Interestingly, while Farina proposed a decade timeline for this to materialize, community members suggested it could happen much sooner than ten years.
“10 years? Come on, you know it’s coming quicker than that,” one commenter said, to which Farina replied, “I totally agree.”
Totally agree.

Bold Prediction Faces Resistance
It is worth stressing that these claims are speculative, and there’s no guarantee that XRP will trend upward over the next decade. Yet, they highlight the immense potential returns some XRP enthusiasts continue to hope for.
Some have even suggested that in five years, investors will wish they had bought more XRP. However, such ambitious outlooks continue to face resistance from critics, even within the XRP community.
Prominent XRP community figure David accused Farina of being paid to spread disinformation about XRP. David claims that people like Farina deliberately withhold the truth or twist facts.
Notably, popular price predictions from sources like Telegaon and Changelly do not believe XRP could reach $300 by 2035. Their analysts mostly settle for values below $100.
