XRP, one of the top digital assets in the cryptocurrency market, has struggled for years as the target of a lawsuit by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Despite a mild surge recently, its current price of $0.5468 remains well below its all-time high of $3.84, reached in January 2018.
With the lawsuit still ongoing, and the chance for an appeal after the final ruling, many in the XRP community wonder if XRP can ever reclaim its all-time high and potentially reach double digits.
The Path to A Double-Digit Price
Armando Pantoja, a prominent crypto figure, has expressed optimism about XRP’s future. He believes the asset’s true value lies between $8 and $20 and predicts it will reach this range by 2026. The $20 target represents a staggering 3,557.6% increase from its current price.
Pantoja’s optimism stems from several factors. Firstly, he highlights a “Historical Precedent Powerhouse,” referencing the 2017 bull run where XRP surged over 650x to its all-time high. Other analysts have also predicted that XRP will recreate this surge.
Secondly, Pantoja emphasizes the coming “Institutional Adoption Tsunami.” Widespread acceptance by financial institutions could significantly impact XRP’s appeal and drive its price up.
Pantoja also lists market trends and utility explosion, future financial services demand, and predicts that XRP will gain legal clarity and partnerships will boom.
Challenges and Skepticism Remain
Despite Pantoja’s bullish outlook, challenges remain for XRP. The asset has struggled to regain the $1 price point for nearly three years, consistently trading below this mark. Additionally, its performance in the recent bull market has been underwhelming, failing to recapture even a fraction of its 2018 peak.

This lackluster performance fuels skepticism among some market participants. They question XRP’s ability to reach $3.84, let alone $20, within the next few years. The asset’s trajectory over the past seven months, coinciding with the initial stages of the current bull run, provides little reassurance for these skeptics.
Despite the skepticism, many analysts are bullish on XRP. Analysts from a prominent crypto exchange recently updated their predictions for XRP showing the digital asset could reach $100, preceded by years of consistent growth.
Ultimately, the success of XRP will depend on its ability to overcome these challenges and capitalize on the opportunities identified by its proponents.
