Хто ти є, ти взяла моє життя,
І не віддала, хто ти є.
Ти випила мою кров і п'яною впала...
...Хто ти є, і ким би не була ти,
Я не здамся без бою.
Я не здамся без бою.

📉🚀While the market is red and XRP is testing its limits in the $1.35–$1.51 range, institutions are looking much higher. Today's 13% dump is just noise.
Let's analyze the latest forecast from Standard Chartered, voiced by Jeffrey Kendrick. Why is the bank betting on $8 👀by the end of 2026?
Three pillars of
$XRP growth (according to Wall Street):
ETF Inflows: Since its launch at the end of 2025, inflows have already reached $1.37 billion. The bank's forecast: up to $8 billion in a year. Institutional capital has only just begun to warm up the asset.
$RLUSD Factor: Ripple stablecoin has shown explosive growth (capitalization >$1.4 billion). This is no longer just speculation, but a bridge for cross-border payments and liquidity in DeFi (integrations with LMAX and Hyperliquid confirm demand).
Supply Compression: Despite escrow, actual inflow into circulation is only ~300 million XRP per month. Amid institutional demand and RWA tokenization, a supply shortage is quite possible.
📊 Alternative scenarios:
To keep a cool head, let's look at the entire spectrum:
-Conservative: $2.20 - $3.50 (if ETF adoption slows).
-AI forecasts: Range: $4 - $14 (depending on macro conditions).
-Base target: Most analysts agree on $2.50 - $4 as a "safe haven."
Standard Chartered sees potential for +500% from current prices. Buying when there's blood on the streets is an old rule that works best in crypto.
Well, I'm sitting here after this Sunday, thinking, it doesn't matter if it's $4, $8, or even $1.5-$2. The main thing is that we don't "sail away" with a price below $1 by the end of the year. But we're not giving up, we believe in a bright future... But when will it come... 🤷I don't know🐅 What about you?
