Edoardo Farina, the Chief Executive Officer of Alpha Lions Academy and the Head of Social Adoption at XRP Healthcare, envisions a future scenario where the general public views purchasing XRP at $500 as an excellent deal. Farina recently shared his thoughts on this matter in a post on X, outlining his five-year projections for the XRP ecosystem. He predicts that over the next five years, governments globally, financial institutions, and individual consumers will increasingly adopt XRP for a variety of financial applications.
Farina also expresses confidence that gold will have been digitized on the XRP Ledger by the year 2029. Furthermore, he anticipates that Ripple, the key entity utilizing XRP for transactions, will have grown into a multi-trillion-dollar corporation by that time.
In January, Ripple’s valuation stood at approximately $11.3 billion following its repurchase of $285 million in shares from initial investors and employees. Notably, the company also held a cryptocurrency reserve valued at over $25 billion at that time.
Farina looks forward to a future where mainstream media outlets such as Fortune, The Wall Street Journal, and Forbes will provide more positive coverage of XRP within the next five years. He suggests that by 2029, individuals will be proud to have acquired XRP at $500 per token, indicating his belief that XRP’s value will significantly appreciate by then.
As of now, XRP is valued at $0.4731 in the market. The projection of $500 implies a potential increase of over 105,585% by 2029, potentially positioning the XRP market at an estimated $50 trillion.
Several prominent community members, in alignment with Farina’s views, see XRP’s value at $500 as undervalued. Not long ago, a forward-thinking XRP advocate named BarriC argued that many within the cryptocurrency sector might perceive purchasing XRP between $100 and $500 as a smart move by 2033.
Additionally, Farina and BarriC have expressed even more ambitious perspectives, positing that XRP could eventually reach $1,000 or even $10,000 someday.
Nevertheless, external market analysts do not share this same level of optimism as seen within the XRP community. Analysts at the crypto platform Changelly project a more prolonged timeline, suggesting that it might not be until 2050 for XRP to hit $500, which they consider as its ceiling rather than a bargain.
Similarly, the views from Telegaon experts offer a more conservative outlook, proposing a maximum price of $105 for XRP by 2050.
