A bold forecast has stirred debate in crypto circles. Based on reports, a long-time investor known as Pumpius argues that XRP could one day trade at a whopping $1 million per coin!

Thats a huge jump from its current price near $2. The prediction rests on the idea that XRP will become the main bridge asset in a tokenized global economy worth up to $1 quadrillion.

According to Pumpius, Ripple is quietly moving real-world assets onto its blockchain. A government-backed real estate token pilot in Colombia is already under way.

Reports have disclosed that Ripple has rolled out massive network upgrades. Then, theres also a $100 million commitment to tokenizing carbon markets, and partnerships with regulated companies.

Based on data from Boston Consulting Group and Citi, $16 trillion in real-world assets could be tokenized by 2030. But Pumpius believes that figure could swell when you add $300 trillion in global real estate, $100 trillion in stocks, and over $100 trillion in bonds, plus currencies and commodities.

In his view, that push could create a token economy worth $1 quadrillion. He sees XRP, with its three to five second settlement times and built-in decentralized exchange, as the obvious choice to move value between those tokens.

Reports have disclosed that XRP Ledger already supports an automated market maker and native multi-asset transfers.

Pumpius said these features are more suited for high-volume transfers than Bitcoins design. He notes that with a total supply of 100 billion XRPand much of it locked or burnedscarcity could boost prices if demand surges.

Despite the promise, challenges remain. Regulatory clarity is still a work in progress in many countries. Competing blockchains are chasing tokenization too.

Legacy financial firms may hesitate before shifting trillions of dollars on-chain. And even if XRP becomes a dominant bridge, it would only need to handle settlement flowslikely a small slice of total tokenized value.

Yet Pumpius insists the math holds. If XRP captures a fraction of daily flows in a $1 quadrillion token economy, a million-dollar price per coin follows.

History shows radical price targets arent always impossible. Reports have pointed to early Internet skeptics who missed the webs true potential.

Whether XRP will hit seven figures or breach $3 is anyones guess.
