Discussion around a possible Ripple IPO in 2026 and potential impact on the XRP price has picked up after Investing Visuals ranked major private companies by estimated valuation. Notably, Ripple comes in next at $50 billion, matching Canva at the same level. If Ripple goes public at a $50 billion valuation, it will likely rank as the ninth-largest IPO of 2026. This figure also exceeds Ripple’s most recent private valuation.
For context, in Q4 2025, Ripple completed a $500 million funding round that valued the company at about $40 billion. A move to $50 billion would represent a 25% increase. Importantly, an IPO of that size would raise questions about XRP’s price outlook, since markets have often linked the two despite XRP being a separate asset. Specifically, when Ripple expands partnerships, gains regulatory clarity, or attracts institutional attention, XRP sentiment typically picks up.
Google Gemini called 2026 a year when Ripple’s corporate growth and XRP’s market performance could become more connected, especially for institutional investors. With the assumption that Ripple lists publicly at a $50 billion valuation, Gemini presented a hypothetical price range for XRP. In this scenario, Gemini suggested a bullish XRP price range between $8 and $15. One major factor behind this prediction is institutional sentiment.
