XRP’s $90 Moon Mission: The Staggering Buy Orders Needed to Fuel the Rally

Forget "to the moon"—XRP's trajectory needs a rocket booster of buy orders to hit $90. Here's the cold, hard math behind the market cap moonshot.

Breaking Down the Buy-Side Tsunami

XRP's current price looks like a rounding error compared to its $90 target. Hitting that mark requires market-moving demand—think institutional FOMO meets retail frenzy. No vague promises, just order book mechanics.

The Liquidity Black Hole

Every trader's dream (or nightmare): a price surge that vacuums up liquidity faster than a hedge fund blows through investor capital. At $90, XRP's market cap would dwarf most altcoins—and rewrite crypto's pecking order.

Wall Street Would Blink First

Let’s be real—if XRP actually threatened $90, the SEC would probably sue the number itself for being "too ambitious." But until then, the charts don’t lie: this isn’t hopium, it’s arithmetic.

XRP Market Cap ModelXRP Market Cap Model To reach the $90 target, the order cleared out multiplier layers of the sell-side order book, beginning at $2.975 and steadily buying up liquidity at each level. This sweep continued until it consumed all available asks up to $90. The process showed how little XRP is available for sale at higher prices and how this scarcity can drive explosive price moves. Large Buy Orders with Thin Liquidity Could Catapult XRP to Higher Targets Interestingly, Dom, a well-known analyst who studies order books closely, has pointed to this pattern for years. In late 2023, when XRP still traded below $1, he predicted that just $1 billion of buy pressure could push the price up by several dollars.  Dom encouraged traders to look directly at the order book depth to see how little resistance existed beyond the early price levels. Meanwhile, last December, when XRP surpassed $2, Dom pointed to the same mechanics behind the sharp price spike. He explained that thin liquidity allowed for steep, almost vertical price jumps as soon as serious buy pressure arrived.  The market expert noted that most XRP holders set extremely high price targets and likely won't sell even after big rallies, which only adds to the supply squeeze. He expected XRP to peak only when a flood of selling reappears. Moreover, three months back, Dom shared a real-time example that showed the multiplier model in action. Specifically, he tracked $61 million in net buying pressure across top exchanges over 13 hours.  https://twitter.com/traderview2/status/1921959795801661608 Notably, this buying pressure added $16.6 billion to XRP's market cap, resulting in a real-world multiplier of 272x. Highlighting this important instance, Dom stressed that market cap figures often mislead investors who don't understand how liquidity impacts price moves.
