🚀 $100 for $XRP in 3 years: a realistic scenario or financial utopianism?

Analyst and developer Vincent Van Code has reignited the debate around XRP, claiming the token could hit the $100+ mark within the next three years.
His main argument: the market doesn't price in long-term prospects instantly. Investor confidence grows gradually, so $XRP will likely follow a "saw-tooth" trend-much like Bitcoin and Ethereum did back when no one yet believed in their success.

📊 What does this mean in terms of numbers?
XRP is currently trading around $1.49 with a market cap of ~$94 billion (based on a circulating supply of ~63 billion XRP).
• XRP at $20 ➡️ market cap of ~$1.26 trillion (on par with current Bitcoin or top tech giants).
• XRP at $100 ➡️ market cap of ~$6.3 trillion.
This would make XRP one of the world's largest financial assets, surpassing the combined market capitalization of many global giants.

🧠 Two opposing market philosophies:
1️⃣ The critics' stance (including former Ripple CTO David Schwartz): If institutional investors truly saw a realistic path to such scale, the market would have priced it in already, and XRP wouldn't be trading below $2.
2️⃣ Vincent Van Code's stance: Conviction and adoption build in waves. Building liquidity and institutional trust is a gradual process, not an overnight surge.

🎯 Alternative analyst targets:
A more conservative-yet still bullish-scenario from Ali Martinez points to $60; however, for this rally to kick off, XRP must first decisively close a monthly candle above the historical resistance level of $3.66.
