A leading market analyst is warning XRP holders that dreams of a $1,000 price tag are far from reality. The expert, Tony The Bull, says the numbers simply do not add up, and reaching that level would require an economy-shaking leap in value. According to him, the market cap at such a price would not only surpass major companies and industries but would also outsize entire nations’ economies. He calls this level “fantasy pricing” and stresses that it is not something the market will see in 2030. Why A $1,000 XRP Price Defies Economic Reality Tony The Bull explains that a $1,000 price for XRP would create a market cap so large it would completely change the global financial landscape. At that level, XRP would be worth four times the total market cap of gold. For context, gold is considered one of the most valuable and stable assets in the world, yet the cryptocurrency would have to multiply that value fourfold.

Analyst Walks Back Shocking Prediction A $1,000 XRP would make its market cap fifteen times larger than Apple, the most valuable publicly traded company on the planet. This kind of valuation, according to Tony, is beyond what the current or foreseeable market could support. On a global scale, it would equal half of the total world GDP. In other words, half of all economic activity on Earth would have to be matched by a single cryptocurrency, something that has never happened in history. The market expert also points out that this hypothetical market cap would also be half the value of the entire global stock market. That means XRP alone would have to rival half the value of every listed company combined. Tony stresses that these comparisons show the $1,000 target is not just ambitious, it’s far beyond realistic market conditions. Expert Labels XRP $1,000 Target As “Fantasy Pricing” Because of these staggering numbers, Tony does not hesitate to call the $1,000 prediction “fantasy pricing.” Looking at hard facts, the global economy, asset values, and cryptocurrency market structure simply do not align with such a price level for XRP.

Even with strong market performance, growth, and adoption, the gap between reality and a $1,000 price is too wide to close in the near term. For holders who still cling to the hope of hitting that number, Tony delivers a blunt reality check. They might need to hold their investment for an entire generation, decades of waiting, and even then, there’s no guarantee such a level would ever be reached. Tony aims to ground the conversation in facts rather than hype. While optimism is common in the crypto world, he believes investors also need to be realistic about what’s possible and what isn’t. For XRP, the $1,000 dream is one that may remain just that, a dream. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

Teucrium’s newly launched 2x XRP ETF on the New York Stocks Exchange recorded $5.43 million in turnover during its first day of trading on April 8, despite XRP prices hitting a five-month low. The ETF, trading under the ticker XXRP, achieved this milestone as cryptocurrency markets faced widespread selling pressure. Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas called the performance “very respectable” given the current bearish market conditions.

The price briefly recovered to over $1.87 on Tuesday before falling again to $1.69 by evening. Even with these unstable price movements, Teucrium moved forward with its ETF launch, aiming to give investors a way to profit from price swings in either direction. $XXRP (2x XRP ETF) saw $5mil in volume on Day One, very respectable, esp considering the mkt conditions. That puts it in approx top 5% of new ETF launches, and about 4x what the 2x Solana ETF $SOLT did (altho both 200x less than King IBIT). pic.twitter.com/u3QQq5yuHv — Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas) April 8, 2025 New XRP ETF Outperforms Similar Solana Product Based on reports from Bloomberg’s Balchunas, the XXRP ETF’s first-day trading volume was about four times higher than what Solana’s similar 2x ETF saw on its launch day. This performance puts Teucrium’s product in the top 5% of all new ETF launches. However, the $5.43 million figure still pales in comparison to BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF debut, which saw trading volume roughly 200 times larger. Community Shows Interest Despite Broad Market Losses The altcoin community has responded positively to the ETF launch, especially considering the harsh market conditions. Data shows that 137,000 traders faced liquidations in the 24 hours surrounding the launch, with total losses exceeding $413 million across cryptocurrency markets. Some XRP supporters have suggested that while XXRP’s volume was much smaller than BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF (IBIT), a potential spot ETF (which some have dubbed “IXRP”) could provide stronger competition. How The 2x XRP ETF Works And Its Risks Unlike spot ETFs that directly hold the underlying asset, Teucrium’s XXRP does not invest directly in XRP tokens. Instead, it’s designed to deliver twice the daily performance of XRP’s price movements, which amplifies both gains and losses for investors. Related Reading: XRP Dump? Not So Fast—Software Engineer Says Panic Selling Makes No Sense Community figure Crypto Eri warned about the ETF’s built-in risk factors, noting that even if XRP’s price stays flat, volatility alone could cause significant losses. For example, if XRP experiences 25% volatility, XXRP holders could see a 6% loss. With 70% volatility, those losses could balloon to 40%. The launch comes as more than 10 asset managers have filed applications with the SEC for spot XRP ETFs. Major firms like Grayscale and Franklin Templeton have submitted applications, though BlackRock has not yet expressed interest in launching an XRP-specific ETF product.
