Over the years, there have been talks of the XRP price eventually reaching the 5-figure mark, putting it above $10,000. These predictions come due to the cryptocurrency’s offering and usage in both the payments sector and the fast-growing real-world assets market. However, this dream still seems far away, given that XRP has yet to hit $5, and even Ethereum has not touched the $10,000 mark. One analyst in particular has come forward to explain that the move to $10,000 will not even follow the trajectory people are expecting.
XRP Price Will Move When No One Expects It To
In an X post, XRP community member Crypto Aikido explained that the way people are expecting the XRP price to move to new highs is actually not correct. Mostly, it seems that investors are expecting that there will come a time when everything seems to fall into place, and then the price will move up.

However, Crypto Aikido says this will not happen, and instead, it will begin when no one expects it to. The first part of the move is actually that the XRP price will continue to trend low for a while. In fact, the crypto analyst expects the XRP price to keep trending low for way longer than people imagine it would.
The whole point of this is that such a muted performance for an extended period would make people lose hope that the coin will ever move higher. As a result, Crypto Aikido believes that most people will be shaken out as the price stays cheap for far too long, and holding XRP would feel pointless.
Once this is done, though, is when the crypto analyst believes that the XRP price will actually begin to move. This is because, as they explain, the move is not going to reward agreement. But rather, it will work in a way that punishes those who hesitate and lose hope in the cryptocurrency.

As Crypto Aikido explains, eventually, the XRP price, which is being laughed at at $1.50, will be called cheap at $20. Such will be the trajectory that the digital asset will follow in its move toward eventually reaching above the $10,000 mark.
Aside from Crypto Aikido, other community members have also predicted that the XRP price will reach $10,000. According to a NewsBTC report, crypto analyst Remi also believes that XRP will reach $10,000 when assets such as Bitcoin and Gold are being tokenized on its blockchain, as well as other precious minerals. Given all of this, the crypto analyst believes $10,000 will be a base price for XRP.
