Ex-Ripple CTO says XRP could surpass Bitcoin if crypto market expands broadly.

David Schwartz, former CTO of Ripple, stated that XRP could eventually overtake Bitcoin by market capitalization if the overall crypto market grows significantly. Currently, XRP trades at $1.34 with a market cap around $85 billion, while Bitcoin's market cap is about $1.55 trillion, meaning XRP would need to reach roughly $24.70 to match Bitcoin. Schwartz emphasized this is a personal view, not an official forecast, and no specific timeline or price target was given. Meanwhile, Ripple's XRPL upgrade is nearing activation, and the U.S. Senate will soon vote on a digital asset market structure bill, both important developments for the ecosystem.
