A new cycle prediction is circulating in the crypto space, and the numbers are turning heads. Crypto pundit John Squire (@TheCryptoSquire) shared a video from another well-known analyst, Modern Investor (@ModernInvest), who laid out price targets for XRP and several major assets.
The Modern Investor put forward a straightforward set of targets. He said, “I could totally see Bitcoin going to around $295,000.” He paired that with an Ethereum range of $9,000 to $11,000 and placed XRP at $8.95. Cardano received a $5 target.
He described these as part of a normal cycle, acknowledging the gains are significant but positioning them within historical patterns of crypto market behavior. The prediction reflects a view that the current cycle has room to develop into something substantial.
XRP at $8.95 would represent an increase of almost 590% from the current price of $1.30. The Modern Investor appears comfortable placing XRP alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum in the same bullish scenario.
$8.95 XRP?
The Modern Investor sees a future with Bitcoin at $295,000, Ethereum at $11,000 and XRP at $8.95.
After everything XRP has been building, $8.95 doesn’t sound like an impossible dream.
I’d love to see this prediction become reality!

XRP has spent years building utility and expanding its use case in cross-border payments and institutional finance. The Modern Investor’s $8.95 target reflects confidence that this development will translate into price appreciation during the next major cycle. The projection aligns XRP with the market performance he expects, rather than treating it as an outlier.
Squire shared the video with the note that after everything XRP has been building, $8.95 “doesn’t sound like an impossible dream.” His statement captured the sentiment shared by many in the XRP community who see the asset’s fundamentals as justification for aggressive upside targets.
The post generated a range of responses. Some felt that the price targets were unrealistic or inflated. One person questioned Bitcoin’s value proposition relative to other assets, arguing it lacked real utility compared to alternatives. Another suggested the post was designed primarily to generate engagement rather than offer genuine insight.
Others expressed frustration with commentary of this nature circulating in the space, seeing it as part of a pattern. One person called the $9 target a joke, suggesting it is underwhelming for XRP. Another called on the community to stop amplifying dishonest XRP influencers.
The Modern Investor’s prediction is specific. Specific targets invite scrutiny, and that scrutiny is already underway. Whether or not $8.95 materializes, the conversation it generates keeps XRP at the front of cycle discussions. Squire said he would love to see the prediction become reality.
