Price predictions continue to divide the XRP community, especially as discussions surrounding potential regulatory developments gain momentum.
While some supporters believe favorable legislation could significantly influence XRP’s long-term outlook, others feel expectations should remain grounded in realistic market conditions.
Crypto analyst ChartNerd joined that conversation by responding to a recent post from crypto influencer John Squire, dismissing the idea that XRP could reach an extraordinary valuation before the end of the year.
ChartNerd’s response was brief and direct. Reacting to John Squire’s X post, the analyst wrote, “XRP will not hit $2000 by EOY,” making clear that he does not support such a target.

John Squire Raises Question Over CLARITY Act’s Potential Impact
The exchange began after John Squire shared his confidence in XRP commentator Jake Claver and asked followers whether the CLARITY Act could help XRP reach $2,000 before the end of 2026.
In his post, Squire said he continues to believe in Claver, describing him as one of the most respected voices in the XRP community. He then invited users to weigh in on whether the proposed legislation could catalyze an unprecedented rise in XRP’s price.
Rather than presenting the prediction as a certainty, Squire framed it as a question to the community. Nevertheless, the suggestion of a $2,000 price target generated strong reactions from both supporters and critics.
Community Responses Show Wide Range of Expectations
Several users were skeptical about the ambitious forecast. One community member, Kentnguyen, said he remains confident in XRP but questioned Jake Claver’s projections. The user explained that reaching milestones such as $10, $15, $30, and eventually $100 would be more realistic before considering four-digit price targets, urging Claver to moderate his expectations.

Another commenter, Chosenprofits, was even more critical. The user encouraged XRP holders to block Claver’s account and argued that the long-promoted revaluation narrative has created unrealistic expectations. According to the commenter, XRP is unlikely to approach even $100 within their lifetime.
A third user, ExRP2022, also rejected the possibility of a massive rally before year-end. The commenter stated that XRP is unlikely to reach $20 by the end of the year and advised newer investors to be cautious about following predictions that place the digital asset above that level. The user also pointed to XRP’s trading history, noting that the cryptocurrency has never traded above the $4 range during its more than a decade in the market.
ChartNerd’s response aligned with the skepticism expressed by many participants in the discussion. While opinions on XRP’s long-term potential continue to differ, the conversation illustrates the wide gap between optimistic projections and the expectations of those who believe price targets should reflect historical performance and prevailing market conditions.
