Reports indicate that Joshua , the founder of Triblu, has proposed a bold possibility: XRP holders could potentially become millionaires, billionaires, or even trillionaires if the token were integrated into a US strategic crypto reserve.

XRP, due to its association with a US-based company, is a more secure candidate for a national reserve compared to Bitcoin. This assertion has sparked interest in certain segments of the crypto community, though it also encounters significant legal and market hurdles.


Reports indicate the US national debt hovers around $38 trillion. Ripple's escrow currently contains approximately 34.4 billion XRP. Given these numbers, Dalton and others estimate that an XRP price of roughly $883 would be necessary to cover approximately 80% of that debt.

XRP is currently trading at approximately $1.91. This would represent an increase of over 46,000% for the token. In contrast, Bitcoin is trading near $89,000 and would need to reach roughly $30 million per coin to achieve a similar debt-offset objective, assuming a focus on 1 million BTC, a concept previously proposed by US Senator Cynthia Lummis. This would represent a gain exceeding 33,000% from present levels.

Ripple's escrow is, crucially, privately managed and bound by contracts. A government can't simply seize it; they'd need legal grounds, and probably a protracted legal battle. Even if US authorities somehow acquired a significant amount of XRP, flooding the global markets with it would probably depress the price, not inflate it. Markets aren't designed to handle trillions of dollars without significant disruption.

Holders And Wealth Scenarios

According to wallet data, certain XRP addresses would experience substantial nominal gains at a $880 price point. Consider this: a holder with 10,000 XRP, currently valued at roughly $19,100, could see their holdings swell to almost $9 million on paper.

A total of 179,546 wallets currently contain between 5,000 and 10,000 XRP. Roughly 2,006 addresses are in the 500,000 to 1 million XRP range. However, the majority of the most substantial reserves are concentrated within Ripple, its founders, or various exchanges. Just 20 wallets possess between 500 million and 1 billion XRP, and a mere six addresses hold over 1 billion XRP.


Matthew Sigel, VanEck's lead researcher, has publicly championed Bitcoin as the most promising option for significant fiscal applications, though some analysts are still doubtful about any single cryptocurrency being the solution to national debt.

Coach JV and others have begun to focus on 2026, suggesting it could be a pivotal year for XRP's price, presenting the outlook as both speculative and time-sensitive. These perspectives are largely driven by sentiment and depend on elements outside of government policy, including market demand and regulatory developments.
