Crypto analyst Crypto Patel has revealed when XRP could rally to between $10 and $20. This came as he commented on the token’s history following its 14th anniversary celebration, noting that it is one of the oldest crypto assets.
Analyst Reveals When XRP Will Rally To Between $10 and $20
In an X post, Crypto Patel predicted that XRP would trade between $10 and $20 by its 20th anniversary in 2032. The analyst also touched on the token’s history, noting that the XRP Ledger (XRPL) went live on June 2, 2021. As such, it is one of the oldest coins still standing, older than Ethereum and almost every other altcoin trading.
Crypto Patel also touched on some misconceptions about XRP. First, he stated that there was no mining as all 100 billion tokens were created at the start. Furthermore, there was never an ICO for the token, and the analyst noted that this is the part the crowd gets wrong. Instead of a public token sale, he revealed that XRP was handed out through giveaways, partner deals, and private sales. As such, XRP doesn’t have an ICO price.
The analyst also noted that XRP exchange trading began in August 2013, with the token trading at around $0.0058. In its first year, the token ranged between $0.005 and $0.01. XRP then rallied to an all-time high (ATH) near $3.84 in January 2018. It is worth noting that it is around this period that it recorded a parabolic rally of 1,400% in a few weeks.
Analyst Points To The Crash After The SEC Lawsuit
Crypto Patel also mentioned that XRP crashed following the SEC’s 2020 allegations that the token was a security. The token fell to $0.11 within two years, representing a 97% crash from its ATH at the time. However, the token rallied to a new ATH of $3.66 in July 2025 as the SEC and Ripple settled the lawsuit that had lasted for almost five years.
The analyst remarked that XRP’s survival for this long is in itself an achievement, seeing as it went from half a cent to almost $4 and then through a multi-year SEC battle. Crypto Patel said that this achievement is the part that gets lost in the noise. He added that despite all that the token has been through, it is still trading just above $1, which represents around a 207x increase from its first exchange listing.
XRP also currently stands out as one of the tokens with regulatory clarity, as Judge Analisa Torres ruled in the SEC lawsuit that it is not a security.
At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.09, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
