Prominent cryptocurrency exchange Gemini has laid out its most bullish and bearish predictions for Ripple’s XRP.
The exchange outlined its long-term outlook for the asset, forecasting the value of $10,000 in XRP in 2030.
In its best-case scenario, the exchange predicts a 134% to 188% increase in value by 2030. This would mean that XRP could settle between the $5.10 and $6.28 price mark in the next five years. Institutional adoption, increased XRP usage in payments, and a potential ETF approval are all catalyzing factors.
Conversely, from a bearish standpoint, XRP is expected to drop by 94%, resulting in a price decline to $0.13 from its current price point of $2.33. The Gemini chatbot cites regulatory hurdles, slow adoption, and increased market competition as factors informing this outlook.
XRP makes a major upclimb as market cap value skyrockets
Meanwhile, XRP bulls have remained awake since the start of May, hitting fundamental milestones. More recently, Ripple (XRP) surpassed Tether (USDT) to become the 3rd most-valued cryptocurrency by market cap valuation. XRP also saw its price value hit $2.61, a price value last seen on March 6th.
According to data from Santiment, a handful of factors influencing the new development include the 11% increase in the amount of XRP holders observed in 2025, as well as the recent house bill allowing Missouri to offer income tax deductions on capital gains which includes XRP and Bitcoin profits.
Coinciding with the recent price surge is XRP’s futures Open interest, which has skyrocketed by more than $1 billion in the past week, according to Glassnode’s report.
The 41.6% increase took the interest rate from $2.42B to $3.42B in 7 days. Glassnode asserts that the recent move suggests “elevated speculative activity and growing directional conviction.”
At report time, XRP is trading at $2.3, with daily gains soaring above 2%. XRP remains the second highest weekly gainer within the top four categories, with 21% sustained over the last seven days, placing it right behind Bitcoin.
