Yes, XRP was the first coin to see a price increase as the market improved.
There are some optimistic analysts who expect the price to reach $10 by the end of 2025 with increased institutional adoption of the coin, increased attraction of more companies and partnerships, and resolution of the case with the SEC.
Personally, I do not agree with this analysis and I expect Ripple to peak at $3-4.
I kinda agree with your skepticism basically because While it's great to see XRP leading the charge in the market recovery, a $10 price tag by the end of 2025 seems kinda optimistic to me too.
I mean don't get me wrong, Ripple has been making some nice moves, from securing new partnerships to advancing their technology. And if they can resolve that pesky SEC case, it'll definitely be a huge win.
But $10? Is kinda a pretty steep climb, especially considering the current market conditions. Your prediction of $3-4 seems much more realistic to me.
