Crypto analyst Bird sparked debate on X (formerly Twitter) with a bold, unequivocal prediction: he says XRP will break into the world’s top 10 assets by market capitalization within the next 24 months — and he’s “100% confident.” Why the claim is getting attention - The comment arrived amid notable shifts in asset rankings: estimated market caps place silver at about $5.036 trillion and NVIDIA at roughly $4.458 trillion, meaning silver has overtaken NVIDIA in that snapshot of global asset valuations. That kind of volatility in rankings underscores how fast market caps can move — the point Bird used to justify his wager on XRP. Where XRP sits now (and what it would take) - Current XRP market cap: ~ $127 billion - Current XRP price: ~ $2.10 per token - Top-10 threshold (time of writing): around the market cap of Broadcom, roughly $1.6–1.7 trillion To reach that level, XRP would need extraordinary appreciation. Based on current circulating supply, achieving a market cap of roughly $1.7 trillion implies an XRP price near $28 — about a 1,220% gain from today’s price. Bigger picture and hurdles - Such a move would require more than speculation: dramatic increases in real-world utility, adoption (particularly for cross-border payments), and sustained retail and institutional demand. - Bird’s forecast is ultra-bullish and hinges on factors that are hard to guarantee over a two-year window — regulatory developments, liquidity flows, macro conditions and genuine increases in on-chain usage would all matter. Context on other major assets (time of writing) - Bitcoin market cap: ~ $1.93 trillion - Ethereum market cap: ~ $402.09 billion - Broadcom (approximate top-10 cutoff): ~ $1.61 trillion - Silver: ~ $5.036 trillion - NVIDIA: ~ $4.458 trillion Bottom line Bird’s declaration is intentionally provocative and highlights the appetite among some analysts and holders for dramatic upside in XRP. The math shows the scale of the challenge: hitting top-10 status would require a sustained, massive rally driven by real adoption and demand — not just bullish sentiment. Whether XRP can pull that off in 24 months remains an open and highly contested question. Read more AI-generated news on: undefined/news
