A crypto commentator known as Remi Relief shared a post on the social media platform X, using artificial intelligence to support his claim that XRP could reach as high as $1,700 if it repeats its explosive run from 2017 to 2018.
The image attached to his post, which appears to be an interaction with Grok 3, an artificial intelligence tool, illustrated this calculation by adjusting previous errors in the percentage increase.
According to the AI’s analysis, XRP’s 2017 rise from $0.005 to $3.84 represented an actual gain of about 76,700%. When this growth rate is applied to XRP’s present market value, the resulting projection points to an estimated price of $1,697.27, rather than the previously calculated figure of $1,414.40.
Grok concluded that although earlier projections contained mathematical inaccuracies, the underlying argument that XRP remains capable of another extraordinary price expansion fits within the speculative nature of crypto price projections.
Taking this correction into account, Remi Relief revised his earlier outlook, abandoning his initial $1,200 target and adopting the higher $1,700 estimate as a more accurate reflection of what a repeat of XRP’s 2017 to 2018 rally could achieve for its current price.
Retail investors poured in with little resistance, and even small inflows had an outsized effect on token prices because overall liquidity and capitalization were relatively low. Particularly, XRP’s 76,000% rally occurred in an environment where total crypto market capitalization was under $1 trillion.
