The XRP community is speculating on the potential valuation of Ripple if it goes public following Donald Trump's recent election victory and the expected resignation of SEC Chair Gary Gensler. Ripple's CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, has hinted at reconsidering an IPO, which was previously dismissed due to regulatory pressures. A community commentator, Nietzbux, presented a valuation model suggesting that Ripple could potentially trade at three times the value of its XRP holdings. Pro-crypto attorney John Deaton referenced market analyst Peter Brandt's analysis, suggesting that if XRP breaks out of its current consolidation pattern, its market capitalization could reach $500 billion, resulting in an XRP price of $8.72. Deaton also highlighted Ripple's holdings of 40 billion XRP and speculated that Ripple could be worth over $1 trillion using MicroStrategy's valuation multiple. He mentioned Ripple's recent buyback of Series C shares and the possibility of an IPO by late 2025 or early 2026. However, these are speculative projections based on available data, with no guarantee of their realization.
