Digital Ascension Group CEO Jake Claver is insisting on an extremely bullish outlook for XRP in the final days of the year.
The conversation began when XRP community member Xena tagged Claver on X, referencing talk about a bet related to XRP’s price in 2025. She clarified that she was not part of the bet but asked Claver to speak to the community about his confidence in XRP’s outlook.
Notably, five months ago, XRP traded at $3.66, meaning it is now down about 50%. As a result, many have written off 2025 and are now focusing on 2026 as a year of potential promise for XRP holders. Meanwhile, Claver is not backing down.
Notably, this is not the first time he has expressed such an extreme outlook on XRP.
Earlier this month, Claver said he still believes XRP can reach a triple-digit price. On the Good Evening Crypto podcast, host Abs pointed to developments in Japan, where a long-standing financial strategy is beginning to unwind. Trillions of dollars in borrowed money are being pulled back, which restructures the market.
Claver said this environment could strongly benefit XRP. He claimed he is “99.99999% sure” XRP can reach three digits, but only if several key catalysts occur.
These include disruptions in the oil market, stronger regulatory involvement from U.S. agencies, the growth of XRP ETFs, and global liquidity changes due to Japan’s financial shift.
Notably, XRP ETFs have already seen $1.14 billion in inflows in just one month, led by firms such as Canary Capital, Grayscale, Bitwise, and Franklin. He also noted that major companies like Vanguard, which manages $9.3 trillion in assets, are now offering XRP products, making him “super bullish” despite the year nearly ending.
XRP ETF recordsHe added that a recently filed BlackRock ETF, which has not yet named its underlying asset, could focus on XRP and serve as the main driver of a major price surge — though he acknowledged this is speculative.
Meanwhile, as the year draws to a close with failed predictions, Claver and other XRP influencers are facing criticism on YouTube and social media. Many are accusing them of repeatedly missing short-term targets and damaging their credibility.
Claver, who previously projected XRP at $100–$1,000 by year-end, has been a major focus of this backlash. Even so, he is not backing down, despite the year ending with little hope for a major recovery in the broader crypto market.
One X user remarked:
“The only way someone could be so sure is if he has some insider information. No other way — unless God himself spoke to Jake and gave him a rundown.”
