A Korean financial analyst known as XForceGlobal has made striking predictions regarding the future price of XRP, suggesting that the cryptocurrency could reach between $10 and $20 in the upcoming months. This projection is particularly bold given today’s trading price of $2.07 for XRP, amidst a wider cryptocurrency market in a prolonged downturn.
XRP Shows Unusual Strength Amid Crypto Slump
While XRP has experienced a slight decline of over 5% in recent weeks, this decrease pales in comparison to the substantial drops seen in other leading cryptocurrencies. Top names like Ethereum have plummeted by more than 40% over the past three months, with similar declines affecting popular coins such as Solana and Dogecoin.
XForceGlobal, a Certified Elliott Wave Analyst, emphasizes that XRP’s resilience in holding above recent lows distinguishes it from competing cryptocurrencies that have faced declines ranging from 45% to 65% from their peaks. This relative strength underpins his optimistic outlook.
I agree 100%, this is just showing that the possibility being there is just telling us how XRP is in its own league even for just wave counts!

Elliott Wave Analysis Points To Massive Gains
The foundation of XForceGlobal’s forecasts lies in Elliott Wave theory, a method of technical analysis that seeks to anticipate market movements through the identification of recurring wave patterns. Citing a recognized 5-wave pattern, he predicts that XRP is on course to hit between $20 and $40 within this year or the next.
Trillion-Dollar Valuation Projections Questioned By Critics
Notably, many market observers view such ambitious targets with skepticism. For XRP to reach $10, it would necessitate an increase of over 370% from its current price. Achieving $20 would call for an even more substantial surge of approximately 850%.
At these price levels, XRP’s market capitalization would hover around $1 trillion at $10, and $2 trillion at $20, values that would be unprecedented for an alternative currency. This is a key reason why numerous analysts deem the forecasts unrealistic, especially in the short term.
CoinGlass: Trading Interest Grows Despite Market Uncertainty
Despite the ongoing debate surrounding XRP’s future, recent data from CoinGlass reveals a growing interest in the cryptocurrency. Open interest on XRP trades has surged to $3.60 billion in recent days, suggesting that traders are actively positioning themselves in the asset, regardless of market direction.
I will be laughing at everyone who said $XRP can never hit $10-20.

When questioned about the timeline for his predictions, XForceGlobal remained somewhat noncommittal, suggesting that it may take time for XRP to approach the anticipated $10-$20 mark.
Nevertheless, his confidence in the analysis is clear, stating that he would “be laughing at everyone” who doubts XRP’s potential to reach these price levels.
As XRP’s year-to-date gains dwindle to just 0.80%, effectively erasing gains accrued since the beginning of 2025, the pressing question remains: Will XForceGlobal’s lofty expectations be realized, or will they become part of the long list of failed cryptocurrency price forecasts?
