Numerous market analysts are now revisiting their XRP price predictions as the year ends on a largely bearish note, beyond most people’s expectations.
XRP has been trading below $2 for several days, dipping to $1.77 this month before attempting to recover. Since the coin touched $3.66 in July, its price has declined consistently over the following six months, falling by more than 50%.
Earlier, some analysts predicted during XRP’s July bull run that the coin could reach $50, while more conservative voices suggested $5 to $10. However, none of these predictions materialized, and 2025 is now winding down.
Many analysts are acknowledging their failed forecasts and issuing new timelines for when XRP may reach $10, $50, and $100.
New Timelines for XRP to Reach $10
According to researchers at Changelly Exchange, XRP could reach $10 as early as August 2029. This timeline aligns with projections Bitwise outlined in a report to professional investors a few months ago.
The report suggested that XRP may reach $10.20 under a bull-case scenario by 2029. In an ultra-bull scenario, Bitwise projected that XRP could hit $13 by 2028.
Telegain analysts also expect XRP to trade at an average of $10.29 by 2028. From today’s price of $1.91, this would represent a 421% upside.
New Timelines for XRP to Reach $50
For the $50 price point, Changelly outlined a timeline of 2034, suggesting that XRP may have a maximum price of $51 by January of that year. This represents a potential upside of 2,496.3% from today’s price.
Analysts at Telegain have a longer timeline, suggesting XRP could reach $50 sometime between 2035 and 2040. Specifically, they predict a minimum price of $40.29 by 2035 and a maximum price of $59 by 2040.
Bitwise analysts, on the other hand, do not provide a timeline for XRP to reach $50. Their most ambitious price projection is $29.32 by 2030.
New Timelines for XRP to Reach $100
XRP community figure Zach Rector revised his timeline for XRP reaching $100 to 2030, down from his earlier 2025 forecast. Rector’s original prediction, made in November, compared doubting a $100 XRP in 2025 to telling children that Santa isn’t real.
The revision drew criticism from the community, with commenters accusing him of “moving the goalposts”. Nevertheless, many still consider his 2030 timeline for a $100 XRP price ambitious.
Changelly’s research suggests XRP could reach $134 by 2040, roughly 14 years from now. Telegain analysts estimate that XRP may only reach $106 by 2050, about 24 years away.
From today’s price, a $100 XRP would represent a 52x increase, which explains why projections suggest it may take several decades to reach this level. At this price, wallets holding 10,000 XRP would see themselves become millionaires.
