Armando Pantoja (@_TallGuyTycoon) recently addressed a key misunderstanding many investors have about XRP’s price potential and its relation to market capitalization. In a video posted on X, he explained why XRP reaching higher price levels, including $40 or even $100, is not as improbable as critics suggest. According to Pantoja, one of the biggest errors made by XRP skeptics is equating market cap increases with direct capital inflow. “Only about $20 or $30 billion would have to come into XRP in a short amount of time to get into that $2.5 trillion market cap,” he said. $XRP can get to $100 and "Market Cap" doesn't matter…here's why… pic.twitter.com/TelYVV3eVW — Armando Pantoja (@_TallGuyTycoon) May 16, 2025 This contrasts sharply with the assumption that over $1.4 trillion in new capital would be needed to push XRP’s market cap to that level. Pantoja stated that “market cap doesn’t matter,” and his explanation makes the many bullish predictions for the digital asset feasible. Understanding Thin Liquidity Pantoja emphasized that cryptocurrencies operate in thin liquidity environments, making them more susceptible to large price movements from relatively small amounts of capital. Unlike mature markets, where a significant influx of funds is needed to influence prices, crypto markets can experience large changes in market cap with minimal inflow because asset prices are based on the most recent transaction multiplied by total supply.

If a neighborhood has 100 houses, each valued at $500,000, the total value is $50 million. But if one buyer pays $1 million for a single house, the market assumption shifts, and each home is now considered to be worth $1 million, raising the market value of the neighborhood to $100 million. However, only $500,000 in new money entered the market. This same dynamic applies to crypto. When demand for XRP rises sharply in a short period and buyers are willing to pay more for the limited available supply, prices increase rapidly, and the market cap follows. Implications for XRP’s Future The distinction between market capitalization and capital inflow is crucial when evaluating XRP’s potential. Bitcoin’s market cap, for instance, has doubled in the past without a corresponding $2 trillion entering the market. The same principle applies to XRP. Pantoja’s argument reframes the conversation around XRP’s valuation. Rather than focusing on the total capital required, attention should be placed on supply, demand, and transaction pricing. “That’s why market cap is not equal to inflow,” he said. This clarity on the market cap myth is vital in a space filled with misinformed commentary and oversimplified metrics.
