Edoardo Farina, a prominent voice in the XRP community and founder of Alpha Lions Academy, has warned that owning 10,000 XRP tokens could soon be out of reach for most investors. His latest comments suggest a sharp price rise is approaching, potentially sending the value of 10,000 XRP to $1 million.
According to Farina, XRP has not been appropriately valued at its present price of $2.2. Investors at this stage can collect 10,000 tokens for only $22,000. However, the positive outlook seen across the market may cause this window to close shortly.
He says he will sell some XRP when it reaches $10, but keep most of his investment until it reaches $100. For most retail investors, buying such a large amount of XRP at the current price is out of reach because it would be worth $1 million.
In October 2024, he advised his audience to consider buying XRP because it was priced at $0.52. In the past, a user needed to spend just $5,200 for 10,000 tokens. Since then, the value of the asset has more than quadrupled, backing up Farina’s statement that even bigger growth is on the horizon.

XRP’s Potential Growth Could Leave Retail Investors Behind
Farina’s warning has reignited discussion about market timing. For someone earning the U.S. median salary of $65,000 per year, purchasing 10,000 XRP at $100 would be nearly impossible without long-term savings. This possibility highlights the narrowing opportunity for new investors.
He drew an analogy between the present and Bitcoin in its early days, when each coin was valued at $1,000 in 2013. Now, those $10 coins are worth huge sums that very few people buying from stores can currently afford. Farina forecasts that Ripple is almost at the same critical moment XRP is experiencing.
According to him, XRP could surge to $100 if Bitcoin climbs to $500,000, a development that would make acquiring a prominent XRP position financially out of reach for most people. Farina continues to advise early accumulation while prices remain relatively low.
As more people start to invest in XRP and its value keeps rising, Farina believes a target of 10,000 XRP is not possible. People who decide to sit out may miss out on major advantages as the asset keeps rising.
