There has been growing speculation that Ripple could pivot toward functioning as an XRP treasury company, following a model similar to Strategy’s Bitcoin investment strategy. This shift could have major implications for XRP’s valuation, particularly given the scale of Ripple’s current holdings. Ripple currently controls approximately 40.67 billion XRP, roughly 41% of the token’s total supply. At current prices, this stake is worth over $122 billion. Comparatively, Strategy’s Bitcoin reserves total 628,791 BTC, valued at around $72.6 billion. Ripple’s large holdings make it uniquely positioned to influence market supply and sentiment if it transitions into a treasury-focused organization that accumulates, rather than distributes, XRP. To evaluate the potential market impact of such a strategy, both OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google Gemini were asked to generate independent price forecasts under various assumptions. ChatGPT’s Projections for a Treasury-Focused Ripple ChatGPT offered multiple models based on hypothetical use cases and market behaviors. In one scenario, XRP is adopted as a reserve asset for international payment settlements, which represent a $150 trillion annual market. Capturing just 1% of this total could elevate XRP’s market capitalization to $1.5 trillion, implying a price of $25.29 per token, based on a circulating supply of 59.3 billion XRP. Another projection centered on institutional demand. If Ripple’s strategic pivot attracts investment from financial institutions and corporations, similar to the Bitcoin buying trend seen in 2020–2021, XRP’s market cap could expand to $2.5 trillion, raising its price to $42.15. A more targeted model considered XRP being adopted as a replacement for nostro and vostro accounts, which collectively hold about $27 trillion. If XRP absorbs just 10% of this liquidity, it would bring $2.7 trillion into the XRP ecosystem, increasing the price to $45.53. In a conservative scenario, ChatGPT explored the impact of Ripple locking its entire 40.67 billion XRP reserve for a decade, removing future supply concerns. This action alone could strengthen investor confidence and drive the price from $3 to $6. Should market momentum increase due to ETF approvals or institutional endorsements, XRP’s market capitalization could reach $550 billion, pushing the price between $9.27 and $15. Google Gemini’s Conservative Estimates Google Gemini offered more measured projections. If Ripple were to permanently withhold its XRP reserves from circulation, the price could rise to $5.06, assuming the market sustains a valuation of $300 billion but is now spread across a smaller available supply.

If Ripple is perceived as a dedicated treasury entity and receives a 50% valuation premium, XRP’s market cap could reach $450 billion. This would translate to a price of $4.50 if calculated against the full 100 billion XRP supply. In a highly bullish scenario, where XRP gains recognition as a scarce, institution-grade asset, Gemini projected that achieving half of Bitcoin’s $2.3 trillion market cap would place XRP at $11.50. Reaching parity with Bitcoin’s market cap would bring the price to approximately $23. Increasing Corporate Interest in XRP Treasuries Beyond Ripple, several companies are already implementing XRP-focused treasury strategies. Nature’s Miracle Holding Inc. recently announced a plan to invest $20 million in XRP. Trident Digital Tech Holdings committed $500 million, and Webus International allocated $300 million. Additional participants include VivoPower International and Wellgistics Health. This broader trend has sparked conversations among industry leaders. Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley has questioned whether Ripple might soon formalize its role as an XRP treasury company. He also suggested that a wider corporate movement toward holding XRP could reduce the circulating supply and contribute to upward price pressure. Ripple’s potential shift to a treasury-centered strategy could redefine XRP’s role in both corporate finance and global payments. Whether through institutional adoption, reserve accumulation, or market scarcity, the strategic implications are significant. While forecasts vary, the overall outlook suggests that such a transition would likely support a substantial increase in XRP’s valuation, especially if market confidence continues to grow.
