XRP has drawn fresh attention this week as a well-followed market commentator outlined a timeline for the asset to reach $9. According to a post shared by the influencer behind “The Modern Investor,” XRP is expected to hit the $9 mark by September 2025.
Community members are discussing this projection as XRP is currently valued at $2.45. If the price rises to $9, it would increase almost three times, making this the highest price ever for the token.
At $9, XRP’s market cap would be nearly $500 billion. With such a high valuation, it would surpass the current Ethereum (ETH) valuation of $316 billion. Meanehile, the commentator questioned the loyalty of XRP investors in his tweet, asking if they would sell their coins at $9 or continue holding.
