Holding 1,000 XRP Tokens Could Be a Financially Significant Decision by the End of 2025, Says Edoardo Farina

Edoardo Farina, founder of Alpha Lions Academy, recently shared his optimistic outlook on XRP's price trajectory, suggesting that holding just 1,000 XRP tokens could be a financially significant decision by the end of 2025.

Edoardo Farina, founder of Alpha Lions Academy, recently shared his optimistic outlook on XRP’s price trajectory, suggesting that holding just 1,000 XRP tokens could be a financially significant decision by the end of 2025.

In a recent video, Farina presented a detailed case for why XRP may outperform expectations in the coming market cycle. He also discussed the implications of this for smaller investors.

Unusual Market Performance This Cycle

Farina highlighted that the current crypto market cycle is not unfolding in typical patterns. Traditionally, XRP experiences price surges later in the cycle, usually after Bitcoin and major altcoins have already rallied.

However, this cycle has seen XRP experience substantial growth early on.

He pointed to XRP’s sharp increase in late 2024, when the token surged from under $0.60 to over $3.30 in a matter of weeks. This was its highest price since 2018, and it occurred while Bitcoin’s dominance in the market remained relatively high, showcasing XRP’s independent movement.

Legal Clarity and Institutional Access

A key factor supporting Farina’s bullish view is the resolution of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) case against Ripple.

With XRP now classified as a non-security, it enables Ripple to partner more freely with financial institutions, a development that removes a major barrier to adoption.

In addition, Farina highlighted the increasing interest from institutional investors in cryptocurrencies, leading to the approval and launch of XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

This step is seen as crucial for facilitating broader market participation in cryptocurrencies.

According to Farina, the synergy of legal certainty and increasing institutional access creates highly favorable conditions for XRP’s value to rise.

Furthermore, Ripple’s broader business strategy may also contribute to XRP’s upward trajectory. Farina mentioned the company’s recent acquisitions, including that of Hidden Road, and suggested that a potential acquisition of Circle, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, could significantly increase Ripple’s influence in the financial sector.

Smash Small Goals to Reach Big Goals

Farina projects that XRP reaching $10 by the end of 2025 is a realistic goal, based on ongoing shifts in market dynamics.

This includes a potential decline in Bitcoin’s dominance and the increasing demand for crypto investment products like ETFs.

In a more optimistic scenario, which Farina admits is a ‘wild card,’ he envisions XRP could hit $100. However, he acknowledged that such an outcome would depend largely on the level of adoption.

It would also be influenced by the role of XRP in tokenizing real-world assets, a strategy that several companies are currently exploring.

Under that scenario, a holding of 1,000 XRP tokens would be valued at $100,000. Farina notes that while this might not be life-changing for everyone, it could represent significant financial progress for many investors who began investing in crypto in recent years.

While the video highlights the potential of owning just 1,000 tokens, Farina recommends that investors aim to accumulate 10,000 XRP if they have the capacity.

At current prices, approximately $2.42 per coin, this would require an investment of around $24,000.

In his view, holding this amount allows greater flexibility in profit-taking and positions investors for reaping the benefits of long-term wealth generation should XRP reach the $100 mark, which would accrue a staggering $1 million in value.

At present, 1,000 XRP tokens can be acquired for roughly $2,400.

In his concluding remarks, Farina emphasizes that whether one holds a small or large amount, the coming years will be pivotal for investors in XRP.

As institutions enter the market and demand for crypto continues to grow, the potential for significant gains is there to be realized.
