Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer Emeritus, David Schwartz, has cast doubt on the widely-held belief that XRP will eventually be worth as much as $100 per coin. Responding, Schwartz stated that he does not feel comfortable setting sky-high targets for XRP’s price. He emphasized that while he personally doubts that XRP would ascend to as high as $100, he had been proven wrong by the market in the past.
“I don’t feel comfortable saying something like that,” Schwartz noted. “While I don’t think it’s likely, I didn’t think it was likely that XRP would ever hit $0.25.” When the XRP price climbed to $0.10, he sold a portion of his holdings because the level felt too high to make sense.
The XRP Ledger chief architect also likened this to Bitcoin’s early days, when few people imagined the top crypto would reach $100. Nevertheless, XRP has remained resilient, smashing levels that once felt unattainable.
