Can $XRP

Realistically Hit $500? Let’s Do the Math.

There’s a lot of hype around $XRP, but some price predictions are simply not grounded in reality. Claims of XRP reaching $500 are circulating—but do they hold up under basic market math?

Let’s break it down:

Current market cap: ~$129B

Circulating supply: ~58.5B

That puts the current price near where it is now.

Now let’s stretch assumptions:

If the market cap doubles to ~$260B and the full supply is unlocked, price = $2.60

If the supply stays at 58.5B and market cap = $260B, price = $4.44

Let’s go further:

For XRP to hit $10, a market cap of $1 trillion is needed with full supply.

With the supply fixed at 58.5B and a $1 trillion market cap, price = $17.09

So… $500? That would mean a market cap of over $29 trillion — almost 10x the entire current crypto market.

Believing in utility and adoption is one thing, but ignoring basic supply and market cap mechanics is another.

Conclusion: Always back your price expectations with realistic metrics — not just optimism.
