A post from crypto commentator Nate (@natebridges51) has circulated widely in XRP circles. He shares a simple calculation, noting that $100 would make those holding 10,000 XRP millionaires.
He added, “If you think it’s possible within the next 20 years, getting to 10,000 XRP will be the best decision you ever make, right?”
The question drew the XRP army’s attention, attracting dozens of responses, ranging from enthusiastic agreement to outright skepticism.
if you hold 10,000 #XRP and it hits $100, you are a millionaire.
do you think this is possible?

How the Community Responded
Reactions to Nate’s post split sharply. One respondent pushed back on the 20-year timeline, insisting XRP would reach the target far sooner, within 3 to 5 years. Another set a timeline for 2032, also compressing the period significantly. Nate agreed that hitting a high target by 2032 would be great.
One commenter suggested the post amounted to engagement farming and accused Nate of spreading doubt about XRP while presenting himself as a supporter. Others questioned the value of $1 million in 20 years, noting that inflation would significantly erode its purchasing power.
One respondent raised a practical concern: most retail holders cannot sustain a 20-year hold. He argued that most can’t even hold for a month. Another pointed out that XRP has existed since 2012 and questioned what a 35-year wait would mean for its credibility as an investment.
Despite the mixed sentiment, the $100 XRP milestone continues to attract serious discussion across both analyst circles and retail communities.
The Case for Holding XRP Long Term
Several crypto analysts and commentators have consistently advised XRP holders to resist selling. Edward Farina of Alpha Lions Academy has cited multiple reasons to hold, including the resolution of the SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit, growing institutional interest, and Ripple’s expansion into stablecoin infrastructure with RLUSD. He also pointed to upcoming corporate partnerships and the absence of full price discovery as reasons to remain patient.

Commentator John Squire has also argued that selling before regulatory clarity materializes would mean exiting too early. The SEC case concluded in 2025, and many believe that removed the single biggest barrier to institutional capital entering the XRP market.
The $100 Target
The $100 figure has appeared repeatedly across XRP commentary. One pundit linked it directly to a potential BlackRock spot XRP ETF filing, arguing such an event would trigger an immediate surge. That claim remains speculative, as BlackRock had not filed at the time. Although the timelines vary, many analysts and experts are confident in the $100 target.
