Crypto Rover Shares XRP Price Outlook for the Next 12–18 Months.
Crypto Rover has forecast XRP reaching $3.20–$4.80 over the next 12–18 months, outlining a target range that remains below several double-digit predictions published this year. His projection formed part of a six-asset outlook covering Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, Solana, XRP, and Chainlink.
The crypto commentator, whose X account has approximately 1.6 million followers, attached the same 12–18-month timeframe to all six forecasts. His XRP target is therefore distinct from predictions specifically tied to the end of 2026.
Crypto Rover’s XRP Target Spans Prices Below and Above Historical High
XRP traded around $1.51 on September 24, according to CoinMarketCap. Reaching Rover’s lower target of $3.20 would require the token to more than double from that reference price, while a move to $4.80 would represent approximately 3.18 times its value.
The forecast also spans prices on either side of XRP’s historical high. CoinMarketCap lists that record at $3.84, placing Rover’s $3.20 lower bound below the peak and his $4.80 upper bound 25% above it.
Those endpoints describe different outcomes: the lower end would represent a recovery without exceeding CoinMarketCap’s recorded high, while the upper end would establish a higher price in that series. Neither endpoint is presented as a December 2026 closing-price forecast.
Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana Feature in the Same Outlook
Rover’s broader forecast places Bitcoin between $135,000 and $190,000 and Ethereum between $7,000 and $9,500. He also outlined ranges for BNB, Solana, and Chainlink alongside XRP. All six targets cover the next 12–18 months.
| Cryptocurrency | Crypto Rover’s target range |
|---|---|
| Bitcoin (BTC) | $135,000–$190,000 |
| Ethereum (ETH) | $7,000–$9,500 |
| BNB | $950–$1,350 |
| Solana (SOL) | $400–$700 |
| XRP | $3.20–$4.80 |
| Chainlink (LINK) | $280–$450 |

XRP 2026 Price Predictions Include $2.80 and $10 Targets
Several other XRP forecasts published during 2026 use shorter deadlines and different assumptions.
Standard Chartered lowered its year-end 2026 XRP target to $2.80 in February, cutting its previous $8 projection by 65%. The revision accompanied reductions in the bank’s Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana forecasts following the market’s February selloff.
In the investor note, Geoffrey Kendrick attributed the changes to weaker digital-asset prices and expectations of further near-term declines. He nevertheless maintained that XRP and Ethereum could benefit from growth in stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets.
Vincent Van Code outlined an optimistic $6–$10 XRP range for the end of 2026 in an April 22 forecast. His AI-assisted modeling incorporated assumptions about settlement activity, liquidity provision, and adoption across the XRP ecosystem. He described the projections as speculative.
Van Code’s model paired the price range with an estimated $400 billion–$800 billion in annual on-chain bridged volume. That figure was part of his projected scenario, rather than a measurement of completed settlement activity.
XRP Queen separately forecast $10 during 2026 in February. Her argument centered on anticipated growth in payment corridors, tokenization, stablecoin activity, and institutional usage, rather than a technical price pattern.
Rover’s $4.80 upper target remains below both Van Code’s $6 lower bound and XRP Queen’s $10 forecast. However, the predictions do not share a common deadline: Rover’s outlook covers 12–18 months, while those two calls explicitly target 2026.
