Despite recent volatility, one of $XRP’s major long-term price targets has been reaching double digits at $10.
However, achieving this milestone would require several catalysts to come together and support a substantial rally.
To assess the likelihood, OpenAI’s ChatGPT has outlined its outlook for $XRP through 2030, identifying the year in which the cryptocurrency has the strongest chance of reaching the target.

Notably, ChatGPT identifies 2030 as the most likely year for $XRP to reach $10, with the second half of the year representing the strongest potential window. However, it assigned the token a 4.5% probability of first hitting the target during that year.
The model estimates a 0.5% probability of $XRP reaching $10 during the remainder of 2026, followed by 1% in 2027, 1.5% in 2028, and 2.5% in 2029.
This probability rises to 4.5% in 2030, bringing the cumulative likelihood of $XRP reaching the target by December 31, 2030, to 10%.

Therefore, this leaves a 90% probability that the cryptocurrency will not reach $10 within the forecast period.
What would it take for $XRP to reach $10?
At approximately $1.10 $XRP would need to gain over 800% to reach $10. Based on an estimated circulating supply of 63.52 billion tokens, that price would give the cryptocurrency a market capitalization of approximately $635.2 billion.
Such an increase would require substantial capital inflows, potentially supported by stronger institutional adoption, sustained demand for spot $XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs), wider use of Ripple’s payment infrastructure and a prolonged cryptocurrency bull market.
However, weaker institutional demand, competition from other payment networks and digital assets, and broader market volatility could undermine the outlook.
$XRP price analysis
As of press time, $XRP was trading at $1.08, well below its 50-day simple moving average (SMA) of $1.37 and 200-day SMA of $1.27, indicating sustained bearish momentum.

The 50-day SMA remains above the 200-day SMA, while $XRP’s position below both averages points to weakening buying pressure.
Meanwhile, the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) stands at 26.51, placing $XRP in oversold territory.
This reflects strong selling pressure but could also leave room for a short-term relief rebound if buyers return.
However, the oversold reading does not confirm a reversal, meaning $XRP could remain under pressure until it reclaims the key moving averages.
