Analyst Jake Claver Sees Path For XRP Price To Climb Toward $1,000 By End Of 2026

During an interview on the Paul Barron podcast, financial commentator Jake Claver argued that XRP could eventually trade in the three- to four-digit range and might reach $1,000 by the end of 2026 under specific conditions. He linked this scenario to broad institutional adoption of Ripple's financial infrastructure, growing use of spot ETFs and Digital Asset Treasuries, and the expansion of Ripple's acquisition-driven product stack. Claver stressed that a substantially larger and more stable XRP market capitalization would be needed before major banks and asset managers would be comfortable deploying significant capital into the asset.
