A groundbreaking valuation model has been proposed suggesting that if XRP were to establish itself as a core medium of exchange within the global financial system, its value could soar far beyond current levels to reach $10,000, sending shockwaves through the market.
According to cryptocurrency media outlet NewsBTC on February 20 (local time), Jimmy Vallee, Managing Director at investment firm Valhil Capital, presented an analysis of XRP’s potential base price should it function as the world’s future reserve currency. Vallee calculated the economic value XRP could attain if it served as a bridge currency connecting all global asset classes. He argued that by applying a valuation model dividing total global wealth and daily transaction volume by XRP’s circulating supply, the fair price of XRP could form at a minimum of $10,000. This scenario assumes that XRP would go beyond being a simple cryptocurrency to complement or replace SWIFT, the global interbank messaging system.
A buyback theory discussed in parts of the investment industry also forms a key component of the analysis. Vallee explained that in the event of a collapse or major transition in the global financial system, governments or central banks could potentially repurchase large quantities of privately held XRP at a set price to stabilize the system. The projection that such a buyback price could be set around $10,000 reflects a high assessment of XRP’s practical utility and its ability to provide global liquidity. This figure represents the astronomical value that could arise if digital assets move beyond being mere investment vehicles to serve as the lifeblood of cross-border capital flows.
The technological superiority and ecosystem scalability of the XRP Ledger were also cited as grounds for potential value appreciation. Its ability to process tens of thousands of transactions within seconds positions XRP uniquely in markets such as central bank digital currency issuance and asset tokenization. Ripple’s extensive global partnership network is considered a practical example demonstrating how this theoretical value could be applied in real financial environments. Just as Bitcoin (BTC) has solidified its position as a store of value, XRP is building its own domain as a utility asset for transactions.
Although XRP’s current price remains significantly disconnected from these long-term valuation projections, discussions within the ecosystem regarding fundamental revaluation driven by expanding utility are actively underway. Experts note that securing regulatory clarity in the digital asset market and the potential passage of U.S. cryptocurrency market structure legislation will be key variables in realizing such long-term price scenarios. As institutional capital inflows accelerate and real-world use cases for XRP continue to expand, market interest in the once purely theoretical $10,000 valuation thesis is expected to intensify.
