XRP remains under $3 but long-running debates continue to weigh in on whether XRP can ever reach $100.
Some argue the math supports it. Others say it’s economically impossible. This article presents a breakdown of what the numbers actually say, and what would realistically need to happen for XRP to hit the triple-digit mark.

At today’s price of $2.30, XRP’s valuation is approximately $134 billion based on a circulating supply of 60 billion and over $230 billion on the full supply. For XRP to reach $100, the numbers take a dramatic jump.
A $100 price equals a $6 trillion market cap, a level that would put XRP among the largest assets in global financial history. For perspective:
