XRP Price Prediction: Analysts Target $4.50 Before a Double-Digit Surge

Jakarta, Pintu News – In the dynamic world of cryptocurrencies, Ripple (XRP) is often seen lagging behind compared to Bitcoin (BTC). However, renowned analyst, Virtual Bacon, highlights that the key to understanding lies in the ratio of XRP to Bitcoin (BTC).

In the 2020 cycle, XRP experienced significant suppression and did not peak as it did in 2017. The return of this ratio to the 2020 peak of 0.000403 BTC could be a turning point for XRP in this cycle.

Short-term Projection

According to Virtual Beacon’s analysis, through its YouTube video, if Bitcoin (BTC) manages to reach the $150,000 mark by the end of this year or early 2026, then Ripple (XRP) is expected to touch a price of around $4.50. This is highly dependent on XRP’s ability to restore its exchange rate ratio to Bitcoin (BTC).

The timing of this milestone is also closely related to when the ETF-driven rally began to significantly affect the market. In recent weeks, although there hasn’t been a significant price spike, altcoins have shown consistent improvement. Some of them have even managed to outperform Bitcoin (BTC), signaling the start of the altcoin season that many market participants have been waiting for.

Long-term Target

Looking ahead, analysts predict that Ripple (XRP) could potentially reach $9 to $10 by the peak of this cycle. To reach that target, Bitcoin (BTC) will need to rise to close to $200,000, while the ratio of XRP to Bitcoin (BTC) should see a rise similar to previous cycle peaks.

Any price above $10 is considered an “optimistic” target, which assumes that altcoins will repeat their historical best performance. This of course requires highly favorable market conditions, including wider adoption and innovation in blockchain technology.

Market Sentiment and Strategy

Currently, the market is welcoming the emergence of ETF products for various cryptocurrencies. Not only Ripple (XRP), but also Solana (SOL) and Dogecoin (DOGE) are expected to have their own ETFs soon, with Litecoin (LTC) also seen as a strong candidate.

The emergence of these ETF products could come as a surprise to the market, especially for currencies like Dogecoin (DOGE) and Litecoin (LTC) that don’t have a strong use case but still maintain their legacy status in the cryptocurrency world.
