March 3 News, Standard Chartered Bank remains optimistic about the long-term price of XRP. The latest forecast shows that by 2026, XRP will drop to $2.80, with a target of $7 in 2027, rising to $12.60 in 2028, $19.60 in 2029, and maintaining a long-term goal of $28 in 2030. This prediction aligns closely with the Fibonacci extension targets of well-known analyst Chart Nerd, indicating institutional confidence in XRP’s long-term growth.
Standard Chartered Bank noted that due to recent downturns in the cryptocurrency market, the 2026 target has been significantly lowered by about 65% from the previous $8, reflecting short-term volatility pressures. However, the bank has raised or maintained long-term expectations from 2028 to 2030, suggesting confidence in XRP’s institutional adoption, global settlement use cases, and market infrastructure development despite short-term caution.
Fibonacci extension levels show XRP at approximately $8 at 127.2%, $13 at 141.4%, and about $27 at 161.8%, closely matching Standard Chartered’s 2030 forecast of $28. Chart Nerd emphasizes that XRP’s long-term potential depends on increasing institutional users, ETF capital inflows, and the adoption of cross-border payments, with specific dates being less critical.
Looking back, Standard Chartered previously predicted that XRP would reach $8 by the end of 2026, indicating a potential market increase of up to 330%. The recent downward adjustment reflects short-term pressures from market downturns and SEC legal uncertainties, but the long-term outlook remains positive.
Analysts believe that Standard Chartered’s XRP forecast shows institutional investors remain confident in the long-term outlook for cryptocurrencies. Despite short-term price fluctuations, driven by ETF approvals and infrastructure improvements, XRP is expected to reach new all-time highs before 2030.
