XRP Price Prediction as Ripple Announces New Stablecoin – Can XRP Reach $100?

News that Ripple Labs is set to launch its US dollar-pegged stablecoin has failed to give the XRP (XRP) price a lasting lift.,XRP, the token of the XRP Ledger launched by Ripple Labs in 2012, was last at $0.587.,That leaves it close to -7% for the week, and over -20% since 2024 highs printed in March.,Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said
the firm’s shift into the $150 billion USD stablecoin market didn’t mean it is giving up on its ambitions to grow its XRP-powered on-demand liquidity product. Rather, Garlinghouse noted that a Ripple stablecoin would act as a complementary product.,Either way,
XRP investors don’t seem too fussed by the news.,The dominant theme for XRP is still the
SEC’s battle to classify it as a security issued by Ripple.,After some legal wins for Ripple in 2023 that momentarily boosted XRP, momentum has stagnated this year.,But long-term price predictions are looking bullish.,

A long-term assessment of the XRP price suggests it has formed a pennant structure in the last four years.,A downside breakout could trigger a drop back toward 2022 lows under $0.30. However, the upside price chance seems greater in a bullish market environment.,A break to the north of the pennant structure could see the XRP price quickly retest its 2021 highs around $2. That could mean 4x gains for XRP.,While not impossible, reaching a $100 token price during the current bull market seems far-fetched.,That would require a 170x rally, taking XRP’s market cap to above $5.5 trillion—more than four times Bitcoin’s current market cap.,And XRP isn’t even close to the current levels of adoption of Bitcoin or as strong of an adoption outlook as BTC.,

Investors looking at altcoins might want to consider an alternative high-risk-reward investment strategy. Presale investing.,Analysts at Cryptonews spend a lot of time combing the presale market looking for potential gems.,One potential market leader they like the look of is a first-of-its-kind crypto-powered VR/AR project,
5thScape, which has now raised nearly $4 million in its presale.,5thScape is pitching itself as the world’s first VR/AR mixed-reality platform to break boundaries by integrating crypto tokenization to provide a superior reward experience.,The project runs on the Ethereum network and will use the Skale Network Layer 2 technology to enable the scaling necessary for gaming and other virtual world activities.,Virtual and augmented reality also need great hardware to work well. So, the team at 5thScape will develop the VR Ultra headset and the Swiftscape VR chair to maximize comfort and ergonomics and deliver an immersive experience with precise motion tracking and intuitive controls.,The funds being raised in the presale will enable the project to complete the development and manufacture of its hardware and build the decentralized network infrastructure.,Priced at $0.00285, a steep discount versus the token’s planned launch price of $0.01, investors who get involved now can lock in paper gains of 250%.,Given its token supply of 5.1 billion, investors who get in now are essentially buying into the project at a market cap of $52.1 million.,5thScape could easily become a major market leader in its VR/AR niche, however. There is a good chance that it could one day become a $500 million market cap token.,That means investors who get in now could potentially lock in gains in the region of 1,000%.,5thScape
was audited by Coinsult, and no major issues were found with its code. Also, the project is
fully KYC’d by SolidProof; the team passed the KYC verification process on January 3, 2024.,Visit 5thScape Here,XRP Price Prediction – Can XRP Reach $100?
