VC Firm Projects XRP Price Could Reach $9,000 by 2030
US regulators and market analysts are examining a new valuation study indicating potential significant price increases for XRP by 2030.
Key findings from Valhil Capital’s report include:
- XRP could rise to between $4,813 and $9,000 in five years.
- The forecast is based on treating XRP as both a payment method and a store of value.
- The Athey & Mitchnick Model emphasizes holding XRP similarly to gold, reducing circulating supply and driving prices higher.
The model anticipates:
- Daily transactions on the XRP Ledger reaching $700 billion by 2030.
- A mid-case price of $4,813 if 10% of global payments utilize XRPL.
- A bullish scenario could see prices exceed $9,000 with $1 quadrillion in store-of-value demand.
- A $100 trillion demand would result in an XRP price of $908.
Valhil Capital describes a "Virtuous Cycle Flywheel," where increased XRP usage leads to higher demand, resulting in price appreciation that encourages more holders to retain their coins, further tightening supply.
Challenges facing XRP include ongoing legal uncertainties regarding its status in the US and competition from central bank digital currencies and stablecoins. Valhil Capital's predictions are considered conservative, excluding potential markets like derivatives and real estate.
