The XRP price has struggled for the last three years, staying down even when Bitcoin and other altcoins rallied to possible new all-time highs. However, even through this, the XRP community has remained steadfast in their belief that the altcoin’s price will reach new peaks. Forecasts have ranged from reaching $1 to as high as $1,000. The latter has been hotly debated among crypto investors. However, one crypto researcher believes that the XRP price will be able to touch $1,000 eventually, giving reasons for why this could happen.
Dominating Global Banking Systems
The has always been the fact that it is to be integrated into the world banking systems, allowing for cheaper, faster, and smoother transactions. The expectations for the token’s use in banking were the initial reason behind its meteoric rise, and this has continued to foster belief in its future. Crypto researcher CryptoTank took to X (formerly Twitter), to the value proposal of this for the XRP Price, alluding to this utility. The researcher points out that SWIFT is already integrating the RippleNet into its systems, and given SWIFT’s volume, it could mean a lot of inflow for the token.
At this rate, the low would not be adequate to handle the volume from SWIFT alone. Thus, the researcher believes that the XRP price would rise to be able to compensate for this new volume. “XRP has to be very high to move just 10% of Swifts daily volume,” the researcher said. “When you start adding the other banks in it gets crazy how high XRP will go.”
XRP Price To $1,000 Debate
The recent debate surrounding the XRP price reaching $1,000 began with the Uphold crypto exchange asking the community what they would do if the XRP price were to hit $1,000. This sparked speculations on whether or not the altcoin can actually reach this price, triggering input from various angles.
