Jake Claver Thinks XRP Could Hit This Price In Less Than 6 Months
On a recent episode of the Dropping Bombs podcast, host Brad Lea asked crypto strategist Jake Claver a simple question about where the market would be in six months.
Claver’s answer was anything but simple. He named three macro events, set a $100 XRP price target, and gave himself a six-month window to be right. LordXRP (@Bitforcoinz) shared the moment with followers on X.

Jake Claver’s Prediction
The prediction was specific. Jake Claver told Lea that XRP will be “north of $100 in the next six months.” He tied the forecast to three distinct developments he expects to materialize.
Claver said he believes the reverse carry trade will unwind, that Satoshi Nakamoto will move his Bitcoin, and that BlackRock will launch an XRP ETF. He sees these three events as arriving together within the same window.
The Reverse Carry Trade
The reverse carry trade is a macro-level shift. Whenever investors borrow in low-interest currencies to buy higher-yielding assets, that trade eventually reverses. Capital moves fast once it does.
Historically, that kind of liquidity movement reaches risk assets like cryptocurrencies. If Claver’s timing holds, XRP could benefit from a wave of incoming capital as that trade unwinds.
Satoshi’s Bitcoin
The mention of Satoshi moving Bitcoin is significant. The original Bitcoin wallet, attributed to the pseudonymous creator Satoshi Nakamoto, holds roughly 1.1 million BTC and has never moved. Any movement from those wallets would be a seismic event for the entire crypto market.
Claver includes this in his six-month outlook as a macro trigger that would demand the attention of every major market participant.
A BlackRock XRP ETF
This may be the most consequential piece of Claver’s prediction for XRP directly. BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF reshaped institutional access to crypto when it launched. Rumors have circulated for years that the asset manager has similar plans for XRP.
A BlackRock XRP ETF would open the asset to a large class of investors and add positive buying pressure to the market. Regulatory clarity in the U.S. has improved significantly in the last few years, and other firms have launched spot XRP ETFs. All eyes are now on BlackRock.
XRP’s Next Move
XRP has spent years navigating legal and regulatory uncertainty. That chapter is largely behind it. With a clear legal standing, growing institutional interest, and the prospect of ETF access, XRP enters this period with more structural support than at any previous cycle peak. If Jake Claver’s prediction holds, we might see XRP at $100 before 2026 ends.
