Crypto expert Remi has raised the possibility that XRP could have a base price 
of $10,000. This came as the expert noted that the XRP Ledger (XRPL) could 
become the go-to network for tokenization, boosting XRP’s utility. How XRP Can 
Achieve A Base Price of $10,000 In an X post, Remi predicted that XRP could 
have a base price of $10,000. He suggested that this could happen if the 
altcoin has a “United States Crypto price Floor System.” Notably, he made this 
comment in reference to a report on the U.S. developing a critical minerals 
price floor system. Related Reading: Analyst Shares XRP Roadmap To $10,000: 
What Happens With Each Milestone? Remi suggested that this could also happen 
for XRP if the U.S. eventually considers it a very important asset. Meanwhile, 
the expert also noted that the XRP Ledger will tokenize gold and Bitcoin, 
which would also boost the altcoin’s utility and possibly contribute to the 
base case price of $10,000. In another X post, Remi declared that all the 
critical minerals will be tokenized on the XRPL with XRP as the bridge 
currency. He reiterated that the altcoin could reach $1,000, $10,000, and even 
$100,000 once these begin to happen on the XRPL. It is worth noting that the 
XRPL is already seeing a wave of tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs). 
Billiton Diamond and Ctrl Alt announced earlier this month that they had 
tokenized over $280 million of certified polished diamonds. Ripple also backed 
the deal, with the crypto firm providing custody services for this 
tokenization initiative. RWA.xyz data shows that the total tokenized assets on 
the XRPL are currently valued at $1.9 billion. The network ranks sixth among 
all networks in terms of tokenized RWAs. XRPL Gets New Upgrade The XRP Ledger 
has activated the Permissioned DEX, which enables compliant institutional 
trading. This is expected to further boost the network’s adoption, which is 
positive for XRP. Commenting on this development, expert X Finance Bull noted 
that regulated institutions can now trade on the network with vetted 
counterparties. Related Reading: Cup And Handle Pattern Puts XRP Price At $60 
After Hitting Resistance He further remarked that this translates to compliant 
DeFi, on-chain order books, and KYC-gated trading. The expert also claimed 
that Ripple and its partner institutions have been waiting for this, and that 
the infrastructure is ready and the payment rails are open. X Finance Bull 
declared that this is how up to trillions of dollars will enter the XRP 
Ledger. He also mentioned that the CLARITY Act, being signed into law, will be 
the next bullish catalyst for XRP. Once that happens, he predicts that 
institutional inflows into the XRP ecosystem will increase. At the time of 
writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.41, down over 4% in the last 24 
hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock,
