XRP Must Rally 158% to Reach Analyst's $60 Target
A prominent crypto analyst has made a bold prediction for XRP's price target. According to Ali Martinez, XRP could reach $60, but only after it rallies by approximately 158% and breaks through a key resistance level at $3.66.
The current price of XRP is around $1.42, so this would be an enormous gain. If the token were to hit the predicted target, its market capitalization would swell to nearly $3.8 trillion, from its current value of about $89 billion.
However, Martinez emphasized that this prediction is a long-term chart target and not a forecast for XRP's price in 2026. The analyst also gave no timeline for when XRP might reach the predicted level.
This prediction is interesting because it arrives during a period of divergence between XRP's price performance and regulated investment demand. U.S. spot XRP ETFs have seen significant net inflows, with $1.68 billion cumulatively added to these products since their inception. Goldman Sachs has also reported a position in XRP ETFs worth around $87.4 million.
