Expert Predicts XRP Price for December 2025 if Bitcoin Hits $225,000

As the market continues to test new highs in 2025, prominent crypto commentator Mario Nawfal has released his end-of-year price predictions for XRP and other top assets.

Nawfal, known for hosting the popular “Roundtable” show on X, shared his December 31st outlook for the four largest crypto assets by market cap. Specifically, he outlined where he believes Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Solana could land if current momentum holds.

Bitcoin Could Hit $225,000 by December

This would push XRP’s market capitalization above half a trillion dollars, solidifying its position among the largest digital assets.

While a $10 XRP would still fall short of the $30 projections made by ultra-bullish analysts like Carl Moon, it would still mark a notable milestone for, as this would be the first time XRP enters the double-digit range.

Many in the XRP community see such a surge as realistic if institutional integration and ETF approval accelerate over the coming months. For instance, market commentator Zach Rector has stated that ETF inflows into XRP following approval and the conclusion of the Ripple lawsuit could support XRP’s journey to $20 by next year.

Meanwhile, analyst EGRAG has used various technical indicators to forecast a range of $7 to $30 for XRP this season, with $20 being his base target.

However, more conservative voices, like Aaron Arnold, suggest a $5 price for XRP by early 2026, especially if Bitcoin hits $150,000.

Ethereum and Solana to Hit New Peaks Too

Meanwhile, in his December 31st scenario, Nawfal predicts Ethereum will reach $10,000, more than doubling from current levels. Notably, Ethereum is currently trading at a three-year high of $4,300, having surged 46% in the last four weeks.

The $10,000 target is widely anticipated in the crypto space, with many analysts forecasting it for Ethereum. This would place Ethereum’s market cap above $1.2 trillion. Meanwhile, Carl Moon suggests ETH could even reach $25,000 this year.

As for Solana, Nawfal projects a climb to $1,000, a more than 475% gain from SOL’s current level of $175. Solana reached an all-time high of nearly $300 seven months ago but has struggled to approach that level since

However, SOL is up 24% in the last two months. At $1,000, Solana would have a market cap of $540 billion, enough to rank it above Mastercard and Netflix.
