Holding 1,000 to 5,000 XRP Could Present a Life-Changing Opportunity as Speculation Grows That Ripple's Escrowed XRP May Help Offset the U.S. National Debt

Now more than ever, XRP proponents strongly believe in the future potential of their beloved tokens. Ripple continues to push for XRP's in U.S.

Some XRP community members believe that the U.S. government adopting XRP as a strategic reserve could help propel the token to astronomical prices.

Specifically, some argue that Ripple’s 37.7 billion XRP in escrow could be used for this purpose. At current prices, this escrowed XRP is valued at $114 billion.

However, the U.S. national debt currently stands at $36.22 trillion. At its current valuation, Ripple’s escrowed XRP wouldn’t be enough to offset the national debt.

To put this in perspective, for Ripple’s escrowed XRP to reach the $36.22 trillion value of the U.S. national debt, XRP’s price would need to rise to $960 per token. Given XRP’s current price of $3.02, this would require an extraordinary growth of 31,688%.

Could XRP soar 31,688% to $960?

With President Trump starting a four-year term, for XRP to hit a $960 price by the end of this period, it would need to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 373%. In other words, XRP would need to increase by 373% each year for the next four years to reach $960.

Currently, XRP has posted a one-year performance of 513%. Yet, it remains uncertain whether it can maintain such growth over the next four years.

What Holding 1,000 to 5,000 XRP Could Mean

For XRP holders, this scenario is enticing, as it could lead to life-changing sums. Specifically, those holding between 1,000 and 5,000 XRP could see their portfolios grow into multimillion-dollar fortunes.

For context, 1,000 XRP is worth $3,020 today. In the scenario where XRP posts a consistent 373% annual growth over the next four years, reaching a price of $960 per token, this portfolio would be worth $960,000.

For those holding 5,000 XRP, currently worth $15,100, this investment could balloon to approximately $4.8 million.
