A recent post by the prominent X user JackTheRippler has drawn attention to a price model that forecasts XRP reaching $28.55, based on specific transaction assumptions tied to Ripple’s new acquisition , Hidden Road, and XRP serving as a bridge asset . The model, shared through a captioned image, presents a structured formula to calculate XRP’s hypothetical future value using transaction volume, velocity, and effective circulating supply. The calculation begins with the assumption that XRPL processes $3 trillion annually in settlement volume. This figure is then divided by a velocity factor of 10, representing how frequently XRP circulates within the economy over a given period. Using the formula: Market Cap = Transaction Volume ÷ Velocity, Market Cap = $3 trillion ÷ 10 = $300 billion. The projected market capitalization of XRP under these settlement conditions would be $300 billion.

The supply used in the model is 52.497 billion tokens, which factors in the effect of locked or inaccessible tokens, suggesting an estimated 10% of the total supply is effectively removed from circulation. Using this data: Price per XRP = Market Cap ÷ Effective Circulating Supply, Price per XRP = $300 billion ÷ 52.497 billion = approximately $5.71. To model speculative market behavior, a sentiment-driven multiplier is applied. The model assumes a multiplier of 5, intended to reflect market demand and investor enthusiasm during a bullish phase. This leads to: Bullish Price = $5.71 × 5 = $28.55.

In response, other users commented on the implications of such a development. E-Trey added , “And ripple just bought Hidden Road,” suggesting Ripple’s recent acquisition of Hidden Road may have direct influence over this volume redirection. Another user, Stoffel, expanded on the broader potential, referencing developments including ETF proposals and SWIFT integration, suggesting that triple-digit valuations for XRP could be within reach under broader adoption scenarios. The model does not represent a guaranteed price projection but rather a hypothetical scenario rooted in economic modeling and speculative multipliers. The actual price would depend on real-world adoption rates, regulatory developments, and broader market dynamics. However, the post reinforces the interest among XRP proponents in quantifying the potential of the XRPL as a global settlement layer.
