Analyst Says XRP Price Can Hit $153 by ‘Cycle 5 on Fibonacci Roadmap’

XRP (XRP-USD) is at the center of an ambitious new price prediction that sees the token eventually climbing past the $100 mark. Crypto analyst TARA recently shared a five-step “Fibonacci roadmap” based on long-term market cycles. While the token currently trades near $1.45, this technical analysis suggests that XRP could eventually reach a peak of $153 after moving through several years of growth and pullbacks.

Fibonacci Levels Map Out Five Major Price Peaks

The new forecast uses a math-based tool called Fibonacci extensions to predict where the price might stop during future rallies. According to TARA, the first cycle is already finished, with XRP hitting a high of $3.65 in mid-2025. Using that high point as a starting guide, the analyst predicts the next four cycles will hit the following peaks:

  • Cycle 2: $8.68
  • Cycle 3: $22.50
  • Cycle 4: $59.00
  • Cycle 5: $153.00

Triple-Digit Target Requires Multiple Growth Cycles

Investors hoping for a quick move to $100 might need to be patient. The analysis shows that XRP does not reach triple digits in the next one or two rallies. Instead, the $100 level only becomes a reality during “Cycle 5.” The analyst did not give a specific calendar date for this, explaining that the journey will take several years. Each big move up is expected to be followed by a correction, where the price drops back down before the next cycle begins.

Massive XRP Price Predictions Create a Debate on Realism

For XRP to reach $153, it would need to grow by more than 10,000% from today. This has sparked a big debate. Some believe it is possible if XRP becomes the main tool for global bank transfers. However, others point out that at $100 per token, XRP would be worth trillions of dollars. This would make the XRP network more valuable than the biggest companies in the world, like Apple ($AAPL) or Microsoft ($MSFT). Even Ripple’s own leadership has expressed doubt that such a high price could happen anytime soon.

At the time of writing, XRP’s price is sitting at $1.4539.
