XRP Price Prediction: Can $2.50 Become the New Floor?
  • Cobb (@Cobb_XRPL) claimed XRP will never fall below $2.50 again, sparking debate online.
  • XRP’s past struggles were tied to its legal battle with the SEC, which capped institutional interest.
  • With the lawsuit behind it and ETFs on the horizon, XRP is drawing fresh optimism as it trades near $2.78.

XRP has always had a special place in the crypto world, mostly because it’s been marketed as the token built for payments. Now, with the market buzzing again, attention has shifted back to whether it can hold higher price levels for good. Recently, well-known community figure Cobb (@Cobb_XRPL) jumped into the debate by echoing a bold take: “XRP will never trade below $2.50 again.” That post quickly lit up Crypto Twitter, sparking discussions that ranged from excitement to outright skepticism.

Some members of the XRP Army were quick to agree, welcoming the idea of a $2.50 floor as the start of a new era for the coin. Others pushed back, arguing that $2.40—or even $2 flat—seemed more realistic, especially given XRP’s history of wild price swings. The token dipped to $2.71 earlier in September, showing that volatility hasn’t disappeared just yet. Still, plenty of voices leaned bullish, saying XRP would only climb higher from here regardless of the bumps along the way.

Why XRP Supporters Are Optimistic Again

For years, XRP’s price was held down by one major obstacle: the lawsuit between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. That regulatory cloud made investors cautious and kept institutions from diving in, while other big coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum enjoyed stronger waves of adoption. Every rally in XRP seemed capped by lingering fears of legal fallout.

But now the lawsuit chapter has closed, and the mood has shifted. Institutions have started paying closer attention, and the community is looking toward the possibility of spot XRP ETFs as the next milestone. Such products could give traditional investors an easier entry point into XRP without having to directly buy and hold it, a move that might boost demand and solidify its role in the broader market.

Where XRP Stands Now

At the moment, XRP is trading around $2.78, just above the $2.50 threshold Cobb highlighted. Whether or not his prediction holds long term is still up in the air, but it captures the renewed sense of confidence in the project. After years of setbacks tied to regulation, XRP finally has room to grow into its payments narrative, and that’s fueling a mix of cautious optimism and bold price calls across the community.
