A well-known pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst, the Modern Investor, has projected a substantial rise in XRP’s value, contingent on Ethereum reaching a price of $10,000 within the year. This outlook comes despite current market uncertainty and declining investor confidence in the continuation of the ongoing crypto bull cycle. In a recent post on X, Modern Investor supported a forecast by fellow analyst VirtualBacon , who previously speculated that Ethereum could rise to $10,000 during this market cycle. Going further, Modern Investor predicted that Ethereum could potentially hit $15,000 before year-end. He emphasized that such a surge would likely have a positive impact on the valuation of other leading digital assets, including XRP. Apparently ETH is going to 10k this year. This means Cardano is going to 15$ and XRP will float towards 20$ https://t.co/V0aFX0EuXp — The Modern Investor (@ModernInvest) May 10, 2025 Implications for Token’s Price Trajectory Based on the projection that Ethereum will hit $10,000, Modern Investor believes XRP could rally significantly, setting a target price of $20 for the asset. This would represent a major increase from XRP’s current trading price , which stands at $2.37 at the time of reporting. Over the past 24 hours, XRP has declined by 1.12%, but remains up by 0.02% over the past week and 13.48% over the last month. On a yearly scale, XRP has appreciated by 356%, with a 14.2% gain recorded since the start of 2025. Currently, XRP holds a market capitalization of approximately $139.41 billion, ranking it as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency globally. For XRP to reach the projected $20 mark, it would need to increase in value by around 744%. If achieved, this price level would place XRP’s market cap at approximately $1.17 trillion, assuming the circulating supply remains stable at around 58.62 billion tokens. Potential Investor Returns and Market Sentiment A hypothetical portfolio of 50,000 XRP, valued at $118,500 at current prices, would be worth $1 million if the $20 target materializes. This underscores the level of returns that early investors could experience if the forecasted rally plays out as expected.

Multiple analysts and platforms have previously speculated on when this milestone might be achieved. Previous Forecasts for XRP’s $20 Milestone Notably, the analyst known as XRP Shark projected in 2023 that XRP could reach between $20 and $33 by late 2025 or early 2026. This forecast was made when XRP was valued at just $0.39, indicating a strong belief in the asset’s long-term potential. Meanwhile, analysts from the cryptocurrency platform Changelly anticipate a longer timeline, suggesting XRP may not reach $20 until April 2030, five years from now. Another source, the crypto prediction site Telegaon , expects the token to trade near the $20 range by 2028. Although differing opinions exist on when XRP might hit the $20 mark, the consensus among bullish analysts is that a significant rise in Ethereum’s price could act as a catalyst for XRP’s upward movement. While market conditions remain volatile, expert sentiment continues to suggest that XRP has the potential for substantial growth in the years ahead.
