On social media, the euphoria from the latest rebound has reignited the wildest predictions, with some influencers touting XRP<\/a> at $10,000<\/strong>. While this figure makes Ripple token holders dream, a quick fundamental analysis is enough to temper expectations. With a circulating supply exceeding 50 billion tokens, a unit price of $10,000<\/strong> would propel XRP’s market cap<\/strong> to approximately $500 trillion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To put this figure into perspective, that’s several times the total global GDP<\/strong>. Even in the most optimistic scenario of massive adoption by the global banking system (SWIFT, central banks), such a valuation remains mathematically impossible in the short or medium term. Savvy investors must beware of the FOMO<\/strong> generated by these figures and focus on more tangible metrics, such as liquidity and the network’s real utility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
