Jake Claver has a public bet that XRP closes December 31 above $750. The digital asset still trades near $1.03, and Crypto commentator John Squire (@TheCryptoSquire) just reminded the community that Claver has 50 days left.
That is a 72,800% gain required in 50 days. Squire then asked the question sitting in many investors’ minds: “Is Jake early or right?”
Jake Claver’s $750 Call
Claver set the same $750 target for the end of 2025 but it did not happen. Members of the community called him out for this failed prediction, listing it alongside other failed 2025 XRP forecasts. Critics argued his predictions prioritize engagement over analysis.
Claver refused to back down. He has reset the deadline for $750 XRP to December 31, 2026. Squire also noted that Claver has added a $10,000 target for early 2027.
He argues that institutional adoption of blockchain infrastructure will drive massive demand for XRP as a bridge asset in cross-border settlements. Monica Long’s comments about 2026 being the year of full-scale institutional adoption are central to his argument.
⏳ 50 DAYS LEFT ⏳
Jake Claver's call: XRP above $750 on December 31.
His words: "Serious. I have a public bet on it."XRP today: $1.03.
The critics are laughing.
Jake isn't backing down. He still sees $10,000 by early 2027.When XRP reprices, who's laughing then?

XRP Has Been Sliding
The price backdrop makes the target harder to reach with every passing day. XRP fell 18% in October before the midterm elections even arrived. After November 3, when Democrats took control of the House and Senate, selling pressure increased further. The election result raised uncertainty around pro-crypto legislation.
XRP has since fallen to $1.03, a level analysts identify as critical support. A close below $1.03 opens the path toward $0.98. Over the past year, XRP is down almost 50%, a steeper decline than Bitcoin’s 27% drop over the same period.
XRP Army Reacts
The XRP army had a mixed reaction to the prediction. One commenter pointed out that Claver made the same prediction last year. However, she said she hopes he is right this time. Another dismissed the target, suggesting that Claver was just hunting for fame.
One commenter said it’s time to wake up from the dream of a 700x return in just 50 days. Another showed support for Claver but pointed out that there are many parts of the financial market he cannot control. However, he expressed excitement for the future.
The Clock is Running
Squire’s question cuts both ways. If XRP closes December 31 anywhere near $1.03, Claver’s credibility takes another public hit. If something structural shifts in the next 50 days and XRP moves, the conversation changes entirely. The community is watching, and will have the answer in less than 50 days.
