Edoardo Farina, CEO of Alpha Lions Academy, recently sparked discussions within the cryptocurrency community with his bold commentary on XRP’s price trajectory.
In a post on X, Farina noted the rapid shift in market sentiment, stating that “a $10 XRP seems like a conservative price prediction” compared to just months ago when even a $2 forecast faced widespread skepticism.
His remarks highlight the growing optimism about XRP’s potential in 2025, fueled by recent market performance and promising developments on the regulatory and political fronts.
Suddenly, a $10 XRP seems like a conservative price prediction.
Just a few months ago, calling for $2 would have been enough for people to try and tear down your reputation.
How quickly the narrative shifts. 99% aren’t ready.

XRP’s Recent Market Momentum
XRP has experienced remarkable growth since late 2024, reaching levels not seen since 2018. The asset’s momentum has carried over into the new year. Despite a recent drop over the past 24 hours, the asset is still up over 10% in 2025, with its highest price this year over 22% higher than the end of 2024.
At its current price of $2.29, it is still well above $2. As Farina noted, many analysts have shared predictions of $10 and more for the digital asset. They have attributed XRP’s rise to its breakthrough of key resistance levels which signals increased investor confidence, and major shifts in the U.S. political and regulatory landscape.

Key Developments Driving Optimism
January 20, 2025, marks an important date for XRP and the broader cryptocurrency market. On this day, Donald Trump, the pro-crypto president-elect, will take office. Trump’s administration is expected to bring regulatory clarity to the industry, especially with the anticipated resignation of Gary Gensler, the current SEC Chair.
Trump’s nominee for SEC Chair, Paul Atkins, is considered a crypto-friendly figure, raising hopes for a more favorable approach to digital assets. The crypto community expects that the incoming administration may expedite the resolution of Ripple’s legal battle with the SEC and potentially dismiss other ongoing lawsuits against similar blockchain firms.
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has expressed optimism about the year ahead, aligning with Farina’s positive outlook. According to Garlinghouse, 2025 could be transformative for XRP, as the company shifts focus to real-world utility and increasing momentum.
As January 20 approaches, all eyes are on the incoming U.S. administration and its potential to redefine the crypto landscape. For XRP holders, the anticipation of a breakthrough year is stronger than ever. As Farina stated, “99% aren’t ready.”
