XRP has had a rough stretch. The token is on pace to close its fifth straight 
month in the red, a run of weakness that has tested the patience of long-time 
holders and fueled debate about what comes next. Related Reading: Crypto’s

as the price sits well below its recent peak, a growing number of voices in 
the XRP community are not backing down from optimistic forecasts. One Analyst 
Says XRP Will Make People Rich In 2026 A market commentator known as Archie 
recently posted a chart on X projecting that XRP could climb as high as $83 
per token before the end of 2026. At its current price of around $1.44, that 
would amount to a gain of roughly 5,900% — enough to push XRP&#8217;s total market 
value to an estimated $5 trillion. A holder sitting on 10,000 XRP would be 
approaching millionaire status at that price. Archie went further, suggesting 
the token could eventually reach four figures — meaning $1,000 or more per 
coin. Good morning XRP fam ☀️ Prediction🚨⬇️ XRP will make a lot of people rich

2026 The post drew mixed reactions. Some holders backed the outlook. Others 
pushed back, with one user arguing that even a three-fold increase would 
barely move the needle for most people. Reports say some community members 
also raised concerns that any major price surge would disproportionately 
reward insiders, pointing to the significant token holdings of Ripple CEO Brad 
Garlinghouse and co-founder Chris Larsen. The 2016 Comparison That Bulls Keep 
Bringing Up XRP is currently down more than 60% from its recent high. Some 
analysts are drawing comparisons to a similar flat period the token went 
through in 2016, before a sharp rally took hold in 2017. The argument is that 
extended low-price stretches often clear out sellers who have lost conviction, 
setting the stage for stronger moves ahead. XRPL validator Vet addressed 
holders directly, saying this is not the time to walk away. Supporters point 
to greater regulatory clarity in the US, rising institutional interest, and 
continued activity on the XRP Ledger as factors that could shift momentum. 
Tokenization Adds A Different Kind Of Fuel The XRP Ledger has seen $1.3 
billion in tokenized real-world assets added this year, pushing its total past 
$2.3 billion. Based on reports, commentator Brad Kimes of Digital Perspectives 
assembled views from multiple market voices arguing that if institutions 
tokenized 50% of circulating cash globally and the XRP Ledger captured 10% of 
that market, the resulting demand could push XRP&#8217;s price to triple digits.
