Prominent XRP commentator, BarriC, has suggested that XRP could experience a significant price increase if it follows a trajectory similar to its previous market cycle.
In his tweet, BarriC highlighted XRP’s performance during the 2017–2018 period, when the digital asset rose from $0.006 to over $3. He noted that current market conditions appear to be tracking a similar pattern to that earlier phase, which led to XRP’s historic rise.
$XRP went from $0.006 to $3 + in 2017-2018
Right now, the market is following a similar path to 2017-2018
If #XRP replicates what it did back then
We could see $XRP go from $3 to $300 end of 2025 into 2026

Projection of Future Value
BarriC stated that if XRP replicates the growth it experienced in 2017–2018, the token could move from $3 to $300 by the end of 2025 and into 2026. For $300, XRP would need to rise by 9,900%. The projection is based on an assumption that XRP’s price structure could unfold in a manner consistent with its previous major bull run.
Differing Opinions from Market Observers
The post also attracted comments from other users who shared differing views. One user, Bud, dismissed the prediction, stating, “No. XRP will continue to devalue. We saw the peak and if you didn’t cash your bag by now, you better get on it.” His comment reflected a belief that XRP had already reached its highest value and was unlikely to repeat the growth suggested by BarriC.
Another user, Old Man Rawshak, argued that the circumstances today differ from those of 2017–2018. He wrote, “Back then it wasn’t as big of a threat as it is Now! So Market Manipulation/Supression is trying to keep it from taking off!”

Further Context of the Projection
BarriC’s outlook draws on the historical performance of XRP, which remains one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. While the scenario he outlined is highly optimistic, it reflects a viewpoint within the community that XRP could achieve exponential growth if conditions align similarly to past cycles.
At the same time, the differing reactions to the tweet show the uncertainty surrounding XRP’s future price trajectory, with some participants emphasizing optimism based on past cycles, and others caution against expecting similar outcomes under today’s market conditions.
