Relief Rally or Lower High? Bitcoin Tests Critical Resistance at $64K–$67K

Pseudonymous market expert XRP Queen has boldly forecasted that a $10 XRP 
price is possible in 2026. To support her bullish outlook, the XRP advocate 
has highlighted several key reasons, focusing more on utility and 
institutional rails than price patterns and hype-driven growth. Reasons The 
XRP Price Could Reach $10 In 2026 In an X post this week, XRP Queen boldly 
forecasted that XRP could rise from its current price below $1.5 to $10 in 
2026. She fired back at crypto members who had expressed skepticism about the 
ambitious target, asserting that those who had laughed at the possibility of a 
$10 surge would eventually delete their tweets once XRP reaches that 
milestone. Although her bullish predictions of XRP are not supported by 
technical chart patterns or historical data analysis, XRP Queen outlined 
several other key reasons she believed the cryptocurrency could reach $10 in 
2026. Her argument primarily centers on XRP’s fundamental utility as a payment 
solution and institutional settlement rail. Related Reading: Bitcoin Final 
Sell-Off Coming? Analyst Says It’s Time To ‘Buckle Up’ Based on these factors, 
it’s likely the analyst expects XRP’s price to advance significantly, driven 
by the scale of adoption, rising demand, and broader recognition the 
cryptocurrency could achieve as it continues to be used for everyday 
transactions. The first point she highlighted was that XRP is already being 
used in “real payment corridors.” Currently, the cryptocurrency has expanded 
across multiple global regions and markets, where it facilitates cross-border 
transactions. One notable example of this traction is in South Korea, where 
XRP has emerged as the most actively traded cryptocurrency, underscoring its 
growing adoption and market demand. The second reason XRP Queen believes the 
cryptocurrency could hit $10 in 2026 is the expanding role of the XRP Ledger 
(XRPL) in tokenizing real-world assets (RWA) and supporting stablecoin 
issuance. Recent reports indicate that even the U.S. Treasury debt has been 
tokenized on the ledger, reflecting broader institutional interest in on-chain 
debt issuance. Furthermore, Circle’s USDC, one of the largest regulated 
stablecoins, has launched natively on XRPL, enabling issuance and use directly 
on the network. This development has direct implications for XRP’s value. Each 
time a tokenized asset or stablecoin is issued, transferred, or traded on 
XRPL, XRP is used to pay transaction fees, effectively serving as a bridge 
currency for liquidity between different assets. Consequently, as more 
institutions adopt XRPL, demand for XRP could rise, potentially fueling a 
price appreciation. Regulatory Clarity And Institutional Intent Another major 
point XRP Queen emphasized to support her ambitious $10 price forecast is the 
regulatory clarity XRP and Ripple have achieved recently. After nearly seven 
years of litigation with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the 
case was settled in 2025 with a $125 million fine on Ripple. This legal 
resolution puts XRP back into the spotlight, transforming sentiment and 
fueling demand for the cryptocurrency. Related Reading: AI Explains What’s

Queen has also stated that “institutions do not build rails for fun,” implying 
that XRP’s vision is not merely theoretical or speculative, but a long-term 
effort to establish a global financial infrastructure. The crypto expert also 
hammered on the market capitalization argument, noting that even at $10, XRP’s 
valuation would still be below past cycle peaks for other major 
cryptocurrencies. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from
