should surge up to 7-9$ because it is the best digital asset for payments. Xrp takes only three seconds per transaction, combined with the lowest cost per transaction. can perform 1500+ transactions per second. also available in many exchanges today (50+).
Although Ripple is a good coin but i think it's hard to reach $7 - $9 in this year. Why? The price of Ripple now is $1.48 and its market cap is $57 millions. If The price of Ripple reach $7.5, its market cap is $285 millions and ripple will pass Ethereum and Bitcoin to become leader of cryptocurrencies world, this is too hard to happen now because i think market will not accept any coins instead of bitcoin and ethereum in 5 next years.Yeah, the old market cap problem of Ripple, and you can bet that it will meet extreme resistant in trying to be number one, although I suspect its centralized leadership will definitely place more and more control over the supply, in an effort to break top spot. I believe it will eventually happen, but it will not last, it will just be a hype to start even more money pouring in.
Still, it can break 7-10 dollars, but when and only when Bitcoin is back above $20k, therefore, making XRP still number 2 or even 3 if ETH also grows.
You can make that generalization about all of the altcoins right now on the market. If BTC rises, everything rises. IMHO I think ripple should perform a coin burn to give the price a bump. I'm hodling regardless as I'm still in the green. I just don't see BTC going up to 20k any time soon.
