đ¨ XRP to $60K? Inside the Deleted Forbes Article That Shook Crypto Twitter
What really happenedâand what you should actually focus on.
THE HEADLINE THAT WENT VIRALâTHEN VANISHED
Crypto Twitter exploded when Forbes briefly published an article titled:
âThe New Bitcoin Is XRP And Itâs Headed To $59,472.â
Within hours, it was gone.
AI tools like Bing and Bard confirmed it existedâbut Forbes quietly pulled the plug.
Turns out, the article was sponsored by a crypto firm, raising serious questions about its credibility.
THE NUMBERS DONâT LIE: $60K XRP ISNâT HAPPENING
Letâs break down the math:
Current XRP price: ~$0.50
At $60K/XRP: Market Cap = $6 QUADRILLION
Thatâs:
60x bigger than the global gold market
6x more than the total value of all crypto in history
Even a $100 XRP means a $10 trillion capâ7x Bitcoinâs all-time high.
In short: the math doesnât add up.
WHAT THE ARTICLE GOT RIGHT
Not everything was nonsense. Here are the valid points:
RippleNet adoption is real â 100+ institutional partners
The SEC case is over, giving regulatory clarity
XRP is seeing real-world use in cross-border payments
BUT HEREâS WHAT IT MISSED
No solid analysis backed the $60K claim
It was paid content, not independent journalism
The deletion signals even Forbes didnât stand by it
SMART INVESTOR TAKEAWAYS
Block out the hype â Viral predictions donât equal value
Utility matters â XRP is already settling billions in real transactions
$1â$10 is achievable â especially if Ripple captures a piece of the global remittance/forex market
Watch adoption, not just price
REALISTIC XRP PRICE TARGETS
2024 Bull Run: $3â$5 (if Bitcoin hits $100K+)
Long-Term (5â10 years): $10â$20 with mass institutional and global adoption
Final Word:
Forget fantasy numbers. The real XRP story lies in tech, partnerships, and use caseânot clickbait headlines.
