Recently, I wondered: what if I invest $1,000 in Shiba Inu (SHIB) today and hold it until 2035? At the current price of about $0.000014, that's roughly 71.4 million tokens. Future forecasts vary: from $0.0001 to $0.00216 per token.
If SHIB reaches $0.0001, my tokens would be worth about $7,140. At a price of $0.000854 — already $60,999. And if the optimistic forecast of $0.00216 comes true, that would be $154,270.
Of course, these are just assumptions, and the cryptocurrency market is unpredictable. But even moderate growth can yield significant profits.
Would you dare to invest $1,000 in SHIB for 10 years?
Recently, I came across the opinion of Edoardo Farina: he claims that most investors will never be able to own 1,000 XRP. At first, this seemed like an exaggeration, but the statistics speak for themselves:
Out of 6.5 million XRP wallets, more than 5 million contain less than 500 XRP.
Only about 1 million addresses have between 500 and 1,000 XRP.
Considering the current price of XRP at around $2.36, 1,000 coins are worth approximately $2,360. Just seven months ago, for the same amount, one could buy five times more tokens.
Some analysts believe that 1,000 XRP could provide financial freedom by 2029. If the price reaches $100, that's $100,000; at $1,000 — already a million.
But not everyone shares this optimism. Some experts consider such forecasts too ambitious.
🧠 What do you think? Is 1,000 XRP already an " unattainable minimum" or still a realistic goal?
The price of XRP has decreased by 2.03%, reaching $2.36 on May 17. This marks the second consecutive day of decline, driven by increasing legal uncertainty and outflows from derivative instruments.
The total open interest for XRP has fallen below $5.5 billion, indicating a decrease in trader activity and a potential continuation of the downward trend.
Investors are concerned about the possible consequences of the current legal proceedings, which intensifies pressure on the asset's price.
Is it too late to buy Bitcoin? Michael Saylor believes that this is just the beginning.
He compares BTC to New York: even 100 years after its peak — investments are still relevant. Bitcoin is becoming the central infrastructure of cyberspace — the digital equivalent of real estate.
Saylor points out that $950 trillion of global capital — in gold, real estate, and stocks — will gradually start flowing into BTC.
He refers to altcoins as "junk stocks," while Bitcoin itself is a digital ecosystem that is not dependent on countries and borders. $BTC

Bitcoin has reached new highs in 14 countries over the past few weeks, including Japan, Argentina, Laos, Pakistan and Sudan.

Will Bitcoin be able to continue rising before the halving? Against the backdrop of a correction after reaching a local maximum of $53 thousand on February 20, 2024, Bitcoin is trading around $51,567. The growth of Bitcoin is associated with increased interest in BTC futures and spot Bitcoin ETFs, as well as the approaching halving. Forecasts from members of the crypto community vary: Doctor Profit predicts growth to $65 thousand per month, and Michael van de Popp calls the figure at $56 thousand by April 2024. Some are expressing caution because Bitcoin is oversold.
