With this in mind, the outlook is that XRP is about to rise to a significantly high and stable value.<\/p>\n<h2>XRP\u2019s Rise Starts With Bank And Payment Provider Adoption<\/h2>\n<p>XRP has always been surrounded by ambitious price projections built around adoption and its proposed role in international fund transfers. Some of these forecasts have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-price-25000-divine-prediction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">stretched as high as $25,000,<\/a> based on the belief that a large-scale payment utility could eventually transform the cryptocurrency\u2019s market value.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SMQKEDQG\/status\/2049221512893435913?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">SMQKE\u2019s outlook follows <\/a>a similar adoption-based argument, although it does not attach a specific price target to XRP. Instead, the focus is on how XRP could rise to a much higher and more stable value over time, and it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/xrp-ready-for-next-bull-run\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">starts with adoption.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>According to him, the more banks integrate Ripple\u2019s distributed ledger technology for international payments, the more transaction flow can move across the network. This is the foundation of the bullish case: rising usage creates more demand for liquidity, and XRP is designed to sit at the center of that settlement layer.<\/p>\n<p>The post also pointed to payment service providers such as Finastra, Volante, and CGI as part of the wider infrastructure that could feed transaction volume into the XRP Ledger.<\/p>\n<p>The argument is that these providers can tap into cross-currency real-time gross settlement functions and a neutral liquidity marketplace, creating a larger flow of payments beyond direct bank-to-bank usage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Over time,<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-solve-cryptos-bottlenecks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> as banks adopt Ripple\u2019s distributed ledger <\/a>solution for international payments and payment service providers take advantage of the cross-currency RTGS capability and neutral liquidity marketplace provided by the XRP Ledger, the transaction volumes of the network will grow massively.<\/p>\n<h2>A $180 Trillion Market<\/h2>\n<p>The number at the center of SMQKE\u2019s post is $180 trillion, which is the estimated annual volume of the international payments market that XRP is positioned to serve as a bridge currency.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to him, XRP is in the right position to become the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/breaking-news-ticker\/xrp-price-target-at-18000-expert-says-only-one-condition-must-be-met\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> best liquidity vehicle for <\/a>these payment markets. That is the size of the market XRP is positioned to serve, and this is another factor as to why the XRP price will surge massively.<\/p>\n<p>SMQKE also pointed to XRP\u2019s supply structure as another reason the token could rise over time. XRP\u2019s maximum supply is capped at 100 billion tokens. Although calculations using this number make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/david-schwartz-challenges-10000-xrp-theory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">ultra-bullish price targets unrealistic<\/a>, the saving grace is that XRP tokens cannot be mined, and the supply will constantly decrease.<\/p>\n<p>SMQKE also addressed XRP\u2019s volatility as another factor why it\u2019s set to rise, noting that wider demand could make the price more stable as usage becomes more constant due to a steady demand for XRP as a bridging currency.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/NAXeOFJT\/\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1636\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The XRP price is trading around $1.37, but a new outlook from XRP commentator SMQKE is looking away from the short-term chart and back to the long-term utility case.\u00a0 The analyst\u2019s view centers on the simple idea that XRP\u2019s value will not be decided by speculation alone but by whether it becomes a fundamental liquidity [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":42562,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[51],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-42561","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-xrp"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>XRP Price Set To Rise As It\u2019s Set To Capture A $180 Trillion Market;
