Crypto veteran Davinci Jeremie, one of the earliest Bitcoin adopters, has once again stirred the market with his updated take on XRP. In a recent video shared with his 826,000+ followers on X (formerly Twitter), Jeremie hinted that XRP might still skyrocket to $24 this year, calling the scenario “possible,” though not guaranteed.
A Bold Turnaround on XRP
Back in January, Jeremie made headlines for dramatically flipping his stance on XRP. After years of calling it worthless, he boldly predicted a price target between $20 and $24, marking one of the most bullish calls on the coin.
At the time, XRP had hit a multi-year high of $3.34, only to crash later by 51%, dropping to around $1.64. Now, XRP has stabilized in the $2.10 range, but momentum has clearly slowed—prompting Jeremie to adjust his expectations.
Still, he hasn’t ruled out a massive move: “$24? Possibly,” he said. However, he again warned investors to remain cautious, maintaining his position that Bitcoin is the better long-term investment.
Why XRP Still Has Explosive Potential
Despite his reservations, Jeremie pointed to one major reason why XRP might still soar: growing interest from the U.S. government.
He claimed unnamed officials are “pushing XRP,” citing recent social media posts by former President Donald Trump, who reportedly included XRP in plans for a national crypto reserve—even naming it before Bitcoin and Ethereum.
While the official government crypto acquisition list currently only includes Bitcoin, XRP’s name being associated with such high-level discussions has kept the speculation alive.
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has previously supported the idea of a multi-asset national reserve, potentially opening the door for XRP’s inclusion in broader financial strategies.
What Would a $24 XRP Mean?
If XRP were to hit $24 from today’s price of $2.10, it would represent a mind-blowing 1,042% increase. Such a surge would:
Break XRP’s all-time high
Push its market cap into the trillion-dollar club
Place it firmly in the double-digit price tier
Some analysts, like Egrag and Javon Marks, are even more optimistic—projecting targets as high as $99.
Still Not a Recommendation
Despite all the excitement, Jeremie remains firm in his personal stance: he does not recommend XRP as an investment.
Calling it a “banker coin,” he argues that supporting XRP is the same as backing a system that exploits ordinary people for the benefit of institutions.
“Do you want to support a banking system that gets free money on your behalf and steals from you when they mess up?” he asked.
