Ridiculous words I’ve ever read... There are posts on Square claiming $XRP will hit $978.99 in 2 days (by May 12, 2025). You should know—that’s absolutely impossible. Here’s why!

XRP is currently priced around $2.37 with a circulating supply of about 56 billion tokens. That gives it a market cap of roughly $132.7 billion. Now, if XRP were to hit $978.99, its market cap would balloon to nearly $54.82 trillion. And if all 100 billion tokens in total supply were considered, that number jumps to $97.9 trillion—a valuation that exceeds the entire global stock market, which stands near $100 trillion. To put it in perspective, that’s over 18x the entire crypto market cap, which is around $2.94 trillion right now.

Even if XRP’s supply were magically slashed in half, the price would still require a market cap of over $27 trillion, which is 9x the current crypto market—completely unrealistic. No historical token burn by Ripple has ever approached such a scale, and even XRP’s burns from transaction fees are far too gradual to affect price this dramatically in just 2 days.

Jumping from $2.37 to $978.99 means a 41,000% surge—far beyond XRP’s record 280% rally over three months. Hitting that price would require $54 trillion in new capital, which would destabilize the global economy. Even if XRP replaced SWIFT’s $5T daily volume and captured 1%, it would still only reach about $35—not $978.

Let’s not forget economic and regulatory factors. While #xrp has seen positive news like the SEC lawsuit resolution and CME Futures listing, such developments move the price gradually—not instantly. Recently, XRP dipped from $2.25 to $2.09 and recovered to $2.37—a modest 13% swing, far from the explosive surge needed for a $978 target.

The bottom line? XRP hitting $978.99 in two days is fantasy-level speculation. There’s no math, history, or market logic that supports such a move. Stay grounded and do your own research—don’t fall for clickbait predictions without facts.
