Current Market Capitalizations (as of May 2025 estimates)
Apple: ~$2.9 trillion
Microsoft: ~$3.1 trillion
Alphabet (Google): ~$2.0 trillion
Total to surpass: ~$8 trillion
Step 2: Ripple’s Current XRP Supply
Circulating supply: ~55 billion XRP
Total supply: ~100 billion XRP
(We'll use the circulating supply for a more realistic estimate.)
Step 3: $XRP Price at $8 Trillion Market Cap
If $XRP ’s market cap hit $8 trillion (assuming Ripple’s value drives XRP demand to that level):
Price = Market Cap / Circulating Supply
Price = $8,000,000,000,000 / 55,000,000,000 = ~$145.45 per XRP
This scenario is highly speculative and extremely unlikely under current economic conditions.
Ripple the company and XRP the token are not the same, and XRP holders do not have equity in Ripple.
Even if Ripple IPOs successfully, XRP’s price would depend on utility, demand, regulatory clarity, and macro sentiment — not just Ripple's stock performance.
If Ripple somehow surpassed Apple, Microsoft, and Google post-IPO — driving XRP's value in proportion — XRP could theoretically hit around $145, assuming full alignment of value (which is a stretch). More plausible, partial alignment scenarios would result in a much lower price, likely in the $5–$20 range.
