Jake Claver Makes Fresh XRP Price Statement That Triggers Reactions

Jake Claver has drawn significant attention across the XRP community with another post. The Digital Ascension Group CEO and crypto commentator wrote that “major institutions are accumulating XRP without saying much about it publicly.” He added that if XRP becomes “core infrastructure for international finance, the current price won’t look like much in hindsight.”

A Record That Invites Scrutiny

Claver’s credibility on XRP is contested. Throughout 2025, he predicted XRP would reach $100 by year-end. XRP closed 2025 at approximately $1.87, making his target roughly 98% off.

Despite missing that call, Claver defended his position. He argued that timelines always get extended and pointed to Ripple’s long history as evidence that large financial systems take time to build.

He did not retract his thesis.  Instead, he doubled down. In 2026, Claver issued a $750 price target for XRP, citing comments from Ripple President Monica Long about full-scale institutional adoption arriving this year. He has also projected XRP to reach $1,500 to $2,000 by the end of 2026, and stated a long-term target of $1 million per token contingent on global financial transformation.

The Community Responds

The Case for Something Larger

Claver’s core argument has remained consistent. He believes institutions are building positions before any public confirmation arrives. Ripple’s reported 1,700 non-disclosure agreements with banks, governments, and Fortune 500 companies support the possibility that significant activity is happening out of public view.

If even a portion of those agreements translate into active XRP usage, the demand picture shifts considerably. The price has not reflected that yet. Claver believes it will.
