Most likely path 2024/2025for $XRP :

1) SEC appeals last minute to continue market manipulation and paper hands sell. It’s possible this part won’t happen as he’s already under pressure and being lambasted in parliament for his hindering of the US economy by attacking crypto, the obvious future of finance.

2) Trump wins the US election and appoints musk to the department of government efficiency

3) Gary gensler gets fired, hopefully prosecuted for his corruption.

4) A pro-crypto boss heads the SEC, finally bringing the USA into the 21st century

5) XRP rises dramatically and more and more institutions adopt it, the pressure cooker will be released. We will see a flip of the switch at some point thereafter, likely in 2030 but that’s another story, hopefully sooner and there will be no stopping the price from going parabolic.

6) Speculations on the development of WW3 causes periodic dips. WW3 began with the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and has been steadily gaining momentum since. NATO is at war with its enemies through proxies in Ukraine and Israel, Taiwan war next which is likely to begin in 2025 or 2027 at the very latest. At some point during this tribulation, Russia will lead a group of nations which will include Turkey, a NATO nation to attack Israel but that is several years away. Russia will, at some point in late 2025-mid 2026 try to close the suwalki gap to protect Kaliningrad and cut the baltics off from NATO. The NATO-Russia direct hot war will begin here. China has the propensity to use a nuke to take out a U.S. aircraft carrier during the Taiwan war when the U.S comes to their defence. This particular war will drag in north and South Korea, Japan, the phillipines and possibly some surrounding nations, India may try to keep out of this one initially but will inevitably be dragged in at some point. This war will be fought on all dimensions, including cyberspace and won’t look like WW2, it will be fought with modern technology.
