Analyst Gert van Lagen projects XRP could reach $50 if it breaks a key resistance level at $2.10 and gains strength relative to Bitcoin. This scenario assumes Bitcoin's price reaches about $450,000 and XRP's market cap hits around $3 trillion, surpassing Bitcoin's recent valuation. The projection is based on a technical pattern called a symmetrical triangle and depends on XRP outperforming Bitcoin and circulating supply factors. If achieved, XRP could become the largest cryptocurrency by market cap under these conditions.
As of Oct 09, 2026 00:32 WIB, XRP trades at Rp23.846 on Pluang, down 5.98% in one day, with a market cap of Rp1.530,8 trillion, far below the $3 trillion valuation discussed in the article. In contrast, Bitcoin is priced at Rp1.446.173.646, down 2.84%, holding a market cap of Rp29.233,11 trillion and a circulating supply at 96%. XRP's current market cap is significantly smaller than Bitcoin's, highlighting the large gap the analyst's $50 XRP scenario would need to close.
