The main reasons why XRP will see $10 before EOY:

1. There are numerous partnerships with Money transfer companies where usage of XRP is going to be the norm. XRP has numerous partnerships with some of the top money transfer companies with usage of XRP.

2. Santander is going to go live with XRP soon. In the recent AMA with Brad Garlinghouse, Corey accidentally mentioned that Santander is going to use XRapid as well along with XCurrent.

3. Soon Ripple is going to have more than 200 partnerships with Banks.

4. Ripple has tieups with more than 50 central Banks. Central Banks have the power and authority to make rules within their home country and banks will adhere to set rules. If Central Banks make it a norm to use XRapid, then banks will have to use XRapid.

Although XRP solves the problem of trust between Banks, it is a very good token.
But I don't really like this token because it's centralized.

You exaggerate the value of the XRP coin, confusing it with Ripple technology, which has really found a worthy application in the banking sector. In your opinion, the capitalization of a speculative XRP coin capable of overtaking the capitalization of bitcoin?   :D

but there is one important requirement before ripple reaches $10. bitcoin should reach $100k, fair enough right.

Oh come on if that would have been the case already then I am pretty sure we could have seen the prices spike already! But they are not really doing well isn't it, looking after the developments that you are imposing here.

XRP is always overthought project and its like in the infancy but trying to act like mature project. This baby is centralised one and you know what, the XRP team themselves control the prices and not the fact of "how much money is getting poured into it". Thats the case mate, and it would hard to believe that it will go 10 USD. I mean that would be like 100x the current rate.

Instinctively, im not too bouyed by the prospect of XRP, but i believe very soon and very unexpectedly; XRP will receieve and unexpected pump and provide profits

But when you say 10$, thats too big of an hype, even if BTC clocks 18,000$ , XRP will merely pump up to 2$ - 3$
Don't get too conscious

XRP $10 by the end of the year.
No offence but I don't think so.
The circulating supply is still 1/3 of the total supply, and for it to even reach that price, at the current market capitalization. It'll have to be 90% dominant in the crypto-sphere which seems beyond the bound of possibility.

It's very good project but it's coin is useless. It depends only on commissions in the main net which are centralised and could be lessened.

Sorry for not advocating your point. market capitalization does not allow XRP reached $ 10 unless Bitcoin increased $ 40k mark

As much as you want, it won't happen.
1. Ripple is a company that develops software based on blockchain.
2. The company has three products: xCurrent, xRapid and xVia.
3. When Ripple announces agreements with new customers testing its blockchain products, we are talking about the flagship products of xCurrent and xVia - do not use XRP tokens!
4. So far only MoneyGram has announced testing xRapid - XRP tokens are used!

Summary:
1) Ripple's success has nothing to do with the XRP token;
2) there is no guarantee that major customers will ever use the XRP token to make transfers;
3) want to XRP cost at least $10 per token? Consider what should be the capitalization of Bitcoin (much, much higher than now);
4) all coins of the top 10 pumps and all you need to do is to wait for the right moment and merge XRP, at least at the level of the January figures, and then you can buy after the price reduction. Or keep the tokens for a couple of years, if you believe in the project.

Ripple will be really important places in the future.I think banks will use this technology in the future.When people are aware of it, they will understand its value.

You are making good points, but do you realize that banks won't be buying the coins on the exchanges? They will be buying at a wholesale price directly from the Ripple company, who is hoarding over 60% of the supply. The new deals won't have any effect on the price action on exchanges.

I think that all these reasons will not increase the price, because to all of them, whatever the price of them will be, they will be the main technology of Ripple. The cause may be a pump from the side of Korea

$ 10 is definitely too high! although, if bitcoin will cost 40 k dollars this year, then 10 dollars for ripple, too, achievable. I used to think it could barely reach $ 1, but it reached  $ 3 last winter. ;D But with such capitalization it is difficult to reach such levels. We need some really cool news for the market to react this way.

Yes I believe in you. it will get to $10. Bitcoin will go down to $200. $200 not $2000 before you think am making a mistake. Dogecoin will be worth $1000 each while bitconnect will be back at rank all to a price of $20,000.
Try to get your head around this then just maybe you will understand what you explained up there.



Maybe you are merit hunting or just posting for bounties...

It's not that I don't necessarily agree with you.  It's more that I simply do not want to agree with this sentiment that all other cryptocurrency has to be tied to the value of bitcoin. 

Bitcoin has proven that blockchain technology is viable for electronic currency and this has clearly opened the door to many other cryptocurrencies.  As more exchanges between fiat and alt coins come online there should be a greater independence in price between bitcoin and various alt coins.

Now... I think recently the peaks between bitcoin and ripple have been correlational to something like $20,000 and $3.  If we go one-for-one correlation and then consider that XRP isn't directly tied but certainly related to speculative values... I'd say it's fair to expect bitcoin to be in the 50,000-70,000 range when ripple goes to $10. 

Either way, any of us remaining in this space as investors, miners, or otherwise will be really happy as the price continues to march on.

10$ for XRP is too much, 3-5$ is its price. Though if they can force banks to work with XRP, then I think the price of 10 bucks will be quite real.

XRP 10$ will be the biggest bubble in crypto history so far. 10$ is impossible and if by some miracle happen, that will not be good for the market.

Most projects are adopting Ripple, but this has little to do with XRP. I think that $10 is more than possible though, but wouldn't count on it

reason number 2 doesn't mean anything at all apart from some social media hype that may or may not help the pump. and the other 3 reasons you are separating from each other are basically the same thing. and they are all repeating the same old false hype about Ripple partnership with X number of banks! the funny thing is that these banks have never even be interested in XRP and they have always discarded it as fast and hard as they could and instead they took the technology for themselves!
none of these are a reason for such a huge pump of XRP. we will surely see pumps of this useless coin but to have such a huge pump we need the same scenarios as last year with a lot of pumps and lot of newbies coming in so that we can steal their moneyz. 8)

I hate Ripple, its a bank coin. Kind of defeats the purpose of crypto.

Still whatever the reason you give i not going to believe this centrelized coin . Moreover these news which you posted its happened before when each news released coin pumped upto 100% . So your gathering all the news and posting . May be using this kind of post you can attract short time profit but XRP 80% premined coin gives no value for blockchain technology.

Nothing is impossible but I must tell you this, that centralized crypto won’t get to 10usd not until BTC get to 200k usd. Xrp is absolutely a token with Great and massive prospect but 10usd before the end of this year is not a dream but a nightmare. Trust my word

It all depends on whether there will be use for the XRP coin, like many have pointed out many applications do not involve directly the use of XRP. Still 10$ is probably unrealistic in any scenario

I agree with you. I also think that the price of XRP is difficult to up to $ 10. Unless the BTC price is $ 50000 then the XRP is just $ 10

You are clearly one of those people who like to hate on XRP just because of its association with banks which is seriously silly in my honest opinion. XRP is easily one of the most popular cryptocurrencies in the crypto world for a long time and it has proven itself as a legit crypto coin many times before, but it still gets undermined from time to time. I do not think we will see $10 by the end of this year like op claimed, but I think that it can reach $4 by the end of this year if the market rallies like crazy like last December. Am HODLING all my XRP at the moment and am not planning to sell any of it anytime soon.

I agree with you because in crypto space, anything can get pumped price wise. When we look at Ripple and XRP, Ripple is the technology being adopted not XRP.

News about ripple works closely with many companies were indeed true, and this is also a great step taken ripple. but with the system of centralized ripple, I think will be hard for the ripple to thrive and be great. not degrading, but it's been a long ripple has a good cooperation but until now has not seen significant development.

Its impossible i think. XRP has a good potential but 10 $ is a really dream. End of the year all coins have huge rises but this is impossible.

Hahha, I agree with a guy above, bitcoin should hit the sky before centralized Ripple will be at least $10 indeed.

I think that XRP will have a lot of added value by the end of 2018, but it is very difficult to reach $10. The total market will not allow XRP to reach $10, unless BTC has a more dramatic increase.

Imho you guys should read this:

xRapid

In Q1, Ripple announced five new xRapid pilot customers — Western Union, Cambridge Global Payments, MercuryFX, IDT and MoneyGram. The pilots, which involve live transactions, have continued to prove that xRapid can lower liquidity costs and dramatically increase payment speed and transparency using XRP. In Q2, Ripple will look to grow the number of xRapid pilots and work to move existing pilots into production.

It is from their website:
https://ripple.com/insights/q1-2018-xrp-markets-report/

Xrapid = XRP

So in Q2 we should see someone big using XRP.

I think that it is possible only with one variant. If the bitcoin will cost 70000-100000 dollars. The option to re-enable the pump up to $ 10 is unrealistic

Ripple is being trusted by more than 200 banks and it was recently funded by digital giants like IDG Capital Partners, Core Innovation Capital and others. These facets are going to drive XRP's price higher up.

Have you ever consider calculating the marketcap at $10 per xrp? Just multiply the circulation supply by  $10 and you realize that it's impossible for xrp to get such huge amount of money by year end

That's big tho! I know some of you guys will compute the usd price and overall marketcap so you'll get the answer. If bitcoin will jump to 100k usd or more probably all alts will pump and we have 7 months to go.

i'll be genuinely appalled if it reaches 10 bucks and will take it as an absolutely certain sign that the crypto markets will take an even bigger shit than bitcoin did in 2011, not that ripple belongs anywhere near a crypto market anyway. there is nothing to justify $1 or 10c let alone anything beyond. i can't believe it's swollen as much as it has.

So what is the difference???

Call it a black sheep if you like. But its presence does not defeat the purpose of Cryptos. Remember that even black sheep do have their place among white sheep.

That is the major reason the banks can use it. It is a popular choice among bankers.

Ripple may have more than 500 central Banks, but this makes no change. No bank is interested in Ripple.
Ripple is not bad coin, but 10$ by the end of the year is absolutely impossible.

We are all waiting to the moon not only ripple. No doubt that the price of many coins will grow. Keep calm and wait for another big pump.

When bitcoin was at it's all time high of 20k per coin , ripple achieved the 3 dollars bar so if we go with such proportion , ripple will be able to reach the 10$ bar when bitcoin will be around 60k per coin and that's not even for sure because there is no direct correlation between both coins or bitcoin and other altcoins in general . As for my opinion , i think that ripple is a coin that might do that because they already have tied a lot of relationships with banks and being a pre-mined coin will make controlling it's fluctuations easier and thus less scary to use , even tho it directly defies the non centralization ideology that the cryptocurrencies world is based on .

I am sure that it won't happend because partnerships that you mention are not related with ripple coin, they are related to ripple technology. Also ripple coin's Total supply is very huge so I don't believe that ripple can reach 10 dallars.

If you really look into what Ripple is doing you would see that the people that are using Ripple payment platforms and should eventually thank the Ripple coin for letting them know about it.

for better or worse, and i don't know which but it's certainly dispiriting, i don't think this matters too much. crypto traders are so stupid that they can't differentiate between the value proposition of the coin itself being used versus the technology being licensed and the actual coin being left behind.

they treat it as the same. maybe one day they'll be wiser but for now it's all about half guessing the real moves and that's enough.

$10 is very high for the ripple and I don't think that it will happen in this year although the possibility is wide open. maybe ripple can reach more than $1 in this year and we still need time to see ripple reach $10. so if ripple can reach $10, how much bitcoin price at the end of this year? because ripple and other altcoin are depends on the bitcoin price. but lets we wait until the end of this year so we can know how much price that ripple can reach and if we have ripple in our wallet, prepare to sell at that price.

as you can see from the past 3 months performance of XRP, it has been losing value. i hope for your sake that you haven't been HODLING all your XRPs!
it has nothing to do with hate, it is just the fact that a centralized altcoin has no place in this world specially when it is created and fully controlled by  a centralized shady company. if a merchant wants a centralized digital money they will use PayPal as they are doing now, they will never even look at XRP as an option in a million years.
add to that the fact that it has 100 billion premined supply and you can see how its price should decline in the long term.

A month ago the ripple cost 45 cents. Today the price of the coin is 26 cents and there is every reason to believe that the depreciation will continue. To say that the ripple will cost $10 is not serious.
