Steven McClurg Calls 40% Move “No Shocker”
Steven McClurg of Canary Capital made a notable statement about XRP’s recent performance. “It really is no shocker that XRP has gone up 40% in the last few days,” McClurg said. He added that it “wouldn’t surprise me if we see another 40% in early 2027.”
Digital Asset Investor pushed back slightly, suggesting the move could come in 2026. Polymarket data referenced in the video shows 49%-51% of participants expect XRP to reach at least $2 by December 31, 2026, with smaller percentages projecting higher targets up to $7.
Ripple Valued at $50 Billion
Ripple’s valuation adds further weight to the XRP story. The 2026 ranking of the world’s most valuable private fintech companies places Ripple at number 4, with a $50 billion valuation. Only Stripe, Revolut, and Ant Group rank higher. That standing puts Ripple in an elite company among global fintech firms.
On-Chain Data Signals Accumulation
Beyond analyst ratings and predictions, on-chain data is reinforcing the bullish case. XRP receiving addresses spiked 698%, paired with three consecutive days of record Bitwise XRP ETF volume. Digital Asset Investor described the activity, stating it looks like real accumulation.
