$XRP is back in the headlines after crypto analyst BarriC made a bold call: XRP could jump from around $2 to $1,000 — and much faster than people expect.
Why he believes it:
BarriC points to XRP’s own history. In 2017, the token went from $0.006 to $3.40, a massive 63,000% surge that caught nearly everyone off guard. He says today’s price near $2 looks like the same quiet accumulation phase before that explosive rally — calling XRP a “sleeping giant.”
Community reaction:
The prediction has split the community:
Optimists think XRP’s past performance proves such a move is possible.
Skeptics say XRP is no longer an underdog and won’t surprise the market the same way again. Many see $10 as more realistic, or think a move to four digits could take until 2030–2040.
Bottom line:
A jump to $1,000 would be a staggering 42,800% return from its current price (around $2.33). Whether realistic or not, the prediction has reignited excitement around XRP’s history of sudden, parabolic moves.
