In a bold forecast shared on X, prominent XRP enthusiast BarriC envisions a future where XRP skyrockets to $1,000 per token, a move he believes will ignite a wave of retail FOMO unlike anything seen before.
His post, which has stirred conversation across the XRP community, warns that many will regret missing the early opportunity and eventually “happily pay $1,000 for 1 XRP.”
From Current Price to Future Possibilities
As of report time, XRP is trading around $3.17, reflecting steady bullish momentum amid a broader market rebound. The token recently retested key resistance at $3.21 and appears poised for higher moves if volume and sentiment persist. Market watchers note that XRP has formed a solid base above $3.00, which could act as a springboard for future rallies.
Historically, XRP has delivered parabolic returns. In 2017, it surged from under a cent to over $3 in less than a year, a more than 60,000% increase. BarriC draws on this precedent, suggesting that XRP’s long-term value could dwarf even its past highs, driven by increased utility in global payments and liquidity solutions.
Once $XRP skyrockets to $1,000
A lot of people will get left behind
A lot of people will realise they fumbled $XRP
A lot of people will FOMO into $XRP and happily pay $1,000 for 1 x #XRP

BarriC’s $1,000 Prediction: FOMO at Full Speed
BarriC believes XRP’s path to $1,000 will unfold in stages. First, the token must break past short-term resistance zones, especially the $4.00–$5.00 range. From there, institutional demand, particularly from banks and payment processors, could propel XRP toward the $10–$50 range, eventually setting the stage for a moonshot to $1,000.
What makes this prediction stand out isn’t just the price target; it’s the psychology behind it. BarriC highlights how retail investors often act late in a rally. Many will watch XRP climb and hesitate to buy during early gains, only to FOMO in once XRP hits three- or four-digit territory. By then, according to BarriC, the price will no longer matter; they’ll “happily pay $1,000” just to get in.

Realistic or Out of Reach?
While BarriC’s vision is compelling, many analysts remain skeptical. For XRP to reach $1,000, its market cap would need to exceed $50 trillion, a figure larger than the entire global stock market. Critics argue that such a valuation is highly improbable, even if XRP becomes a central player in cross-border finance.
Still, there’s a growing consensus that XRP’s fundamentals are improving. The resolution of its legal battle with the U.S. SEC, the rise of Ripple’s stablecoin RLUSD, and growing institutional adoption are all tailwinds that could push XRP toward higher valuations, though perhaps not as high as $1,000.
Final Thoughts
BarriC’s statement serves as both a price prediction and a psychological insight: when XRP begins its next major rally, many will wish they had acted sooner. Whether XRP ever reaches $1,000 remains to be seen. But as history shows, in the world of crypto, what seems impossible today can become reality tomorrow, and the fear of missing out has a way of rewriting what people believe is “too expensive.”
