Top Researcher Outlines the Path to a Higher-Priced XRP

Crypto researcher SMQKE has outlined a case for a higher XRP price based on two factors: growing adoption and declining supply. In a recent post on X , SMQKE said XRP’s future price will be determined by “adoption, utility, and scarcity,” while referring readers to a video that walks through the documents behind the argument. The video begins with the size of the cross-border payments market. SMQKE cites Delphi Digital, which used a McKinsey estimate that placed global cross-border payments at $155 trillion in 2018 and projected the market could reach around $230 trillion by 2028.
