Crypto Pundit Warns: XRP at $10,000 Would Destroy the XRP Ledger’s Core Purpose

Could a moon-shot price tag actually sink XRP's utility? One industry voice drops a bombshell.

XRP was built to move fast and cheap—not to make Lambo dreams come true. Yet here we are, debating a $10,000 fantasy while banks quietly test the ledger for cross-border settlements. Classic crypto: speculators ignore the tech to chase imaginary numbers.

Why $10,000 breaks the system

The XRP Ledger thrives on micro-fees and liquidity efficiency. Inflate the token to five figures, and suddenly every transaction requires absurd precision—like buying coffee with a bar of gold. The network's speed advantage crumbles under impractical denominations.

Meanwhile, Ripple's institutional partners care about throughput, not your portfolio. They'll ditch XRP the second it becomes a volatile store of value rather than a frictionless bridge asset. But hey, at least the 'to the moon' crowd gets bragging rights—until the music stops.
