Jake Claver: 99.99999% Confident XRP Will Make a Major Move in 2025

Digital Ascension Group CEO Jake Claver told the XRP community he is 99.99999% confident XRP will make an “unbelievable move” before year-end 2025. Claver reiterated earlier bullish claims that XRP could reach triple-digit prices if several catalysts align, citing disruptions in oil markets, stronger U.S. regulatory engagement, growth of XRP ETFs, and large-scale liquidity shifts in Japan. XRP traded at $1.87 with a peak near $3.66 five months earlier, reflecting roughly a 50% decline year-to-date. The article notes XRP ETF inflows of $1.14 billion in one month from firms such as Canary Capital, Grayscale, Bitwise and Franklin, and mentions a speculative BlackRock ETF filing that could target XRP. Claver has previously forecast extreme short-term targets (e.g., $100–$1,000) and faces criticism after missed predictions. The piece cautions readers that this is opinion and not financial advice.
Neutral
Claver’s statements are strongly bullish sentiment-wise but are opinion-based and tied to speculative catalysts rather than new on-chain fundamentals or confirmed institutional commitments. Short-term market reaction may be volatility as traders speculate on potential ETF flows or news about BlackRock; retail momentum could spike if influencers drive hype, but this is offset by Claver’s history of missed targets and the current 50% pullback in XRP price. The ETF inflows cited ($1.14B) are supportive evidence of institutional interest, which is a bullish structural factor for medium-to-long term price discovery. However, absent concrete, immediate catalysts (confirmed ETFs, regulatory clarity, or major corporate adoption), the most likely market outcome is short-term speculative spikes followed by consolidation — hence a neutral overall classification. Comparable events: past influencer-driven price rallies (e.g., predictions around token listings or ETF rumors) produced quick rallies and pullbacks unless backed by durable on-chain or institutional developments.
