Can XRP Move Beyond $1 In The Next 6 to 12 Months?
The next couple of months are expected to be bullish for the entire cryptocurrency market. Focusing on XRP, Ash Crypto, a prominent cryptocurrency analyst, revealed that the altcoin could climb high. He anticipates that by the following year, XRP will trade between $3 and $5.
The predicted range is certainly bullish for the altcoin and its investors. A rise to the $3 mark corresponds to a 460% gain or a 5X return on investment. The asset hit an all-time high of $3.84 back in 2018. As a result, a rise beyond this could register a new peak for the altcoin. However, if XRP surges to $5, it would indicate a more significant 834% increase over the current price.
It looks like Ash Crypto wasn’t the only one who believed XRP could move beyond $3 in these coming months. Crypto trader Myles G predicted last month that XRP will be worth $3 by Christmas. While a spike of this magnitude seems impossible, the volatile market could do wonders.
