Market Data 
The First Ledger team recently rejuvenated discussions around ambitious XRP price predictions, humorously teasing extravagance should XRP hit a certain milestone.
The crypto market is home to audacious price predictions, and XRP has often been at the center of some of them. Most recently, the team behind First Ledger, a decentralized exchange on the XRPL, joined the discussion with a humorous commentary.
“When XRP Hits $2,000, There Will be Signs”
In a recent post on X, the team playfully teased the idea of XRP hitting $2,000, suggesting that such a milestone would come with noticeable signs of newfound wealth, like owning a Gundam robot or a John Deere tractor.
The First Ledger post presents two images indicating the absurdity of the scenario. In the first image, a television screen displays a CNN headline announcing XRP’s price at $2,000, while a Mona Lisa painting hangs on the wall. This indicates the kind of luxury such wealth might bring.

Meanwhile, the second image shows Pepe the Frog, a well-known internet meme, sipping tea while wearing a crown. Surrounding Pepe are a Gundam robot, a military tank, and a John Deere tractor.
Through this humorous display, the First Ledger team calls attention to the extravagant lifestyle they might lead if XRP’s price skyrocketed to the ambitious mark, with subsequent comments poking fun at the speculative nature of crypto price predictions.
A Trend of Ambitious XRP Price Predictions
However, the idea of XRP reaching such lofty targets isn’t new in the community, though it remains a highly ambitious target. Recently, XRP has shown resilience by holding steady above the $2 mark despite a broader market slowdown.
This stability follows an impressive run between November 2024 and January 2025, when the token surged nearly 600% to reach $3.38. While many analysts believe XRP could soon climb back above $3, some community members are setting their sights much higher, awaiting prices tied to major financial milestones.
For instance, they speculate that if XRP were to complement or even replace SWIFT, the global financial messaging system, its price could soar to levels like $100, $1,000, or even $2,000.
Back in January 2025, a market analyst known as 24hoursawake predicted that XRP would hit $2,000 within 48 days. Expectedly, this far-fetched forecast failed to come true.
Last month, community commentator Remi Relief suggested that a year-end price of $1,200 for XRP would be a conservative estimate. The analyst claimed that after presenting his reasoning, investors would argue the price should be even higher, potentially between $2,000 and $3,000.
When I say $1200 XRP EOY…I’m being conservative.
I will be laying down my reason and when I’m done you will say…”you’re crazy, it can’t be $1000…you mean $2000-$3000” 🙌

XRP to $2,000 Impossible Under Current Conditions
Despite the comments, a $2,000 price tag for XRP appears unrealistic under current market conditions. With a circulating supply of 58 billion tokens, XRP would need a market capitalization of $116 trillion to reach that level, a figure that seems nearly impossible at this stage.
Still, the hypothetical gains could lead to massive wealth. At XRP’s current price of $2.36, an investment of $20,000 would buy roughly 8,474 tokens. If the price climbed to $2,000, that investment would balloon to $16.9 million, representing an astonishing 84,645% return. Interestingly, analysts at Changelly believe XRP could reach $2,000 in July 2050.
