The potential for #Ripple to conduct an Initial Public Offering is one development that has emerged that may have an impact on the price of $XRP (IPO). This would imply that the company's shares would start to be traded openly, much like Coinbase's COIN stock. But what really grabs investors' attention is the potential for extremely high share prices. Ripple video from financial expert resurfaces Several XRP community members had started the rumours by discussing a potential IPO. It rapidly assumed a life of its own and grew from there, as rumours are prone to do. But the most intriguing development so far has been the rediscovery of a video in which financial analyst Linda Jones discusses a potential Ripple valuation. The financial analyst compares Ripple to Coinbase, which went public at a valuation of $86 billion, and notes that Ripple stock would be valued far more. She also factors in the market capitalization of the XRP supply, at which point she calculates a valuation of $107 billion. In this instance, the price of Ripple equities is 20 times higher than what it was at the time the interview was conducted. This would value the Ripple shares at about $600, yet there is a chance it may be higher since the analyst notes that Ripple's price might go as high as $500 billion. She believes that the business has what it takes to be regarded as a high-value firm, similar to Nvidia or Apple. What Happens To The Price Of XRP In This Situation? There would be more than enough justification for the price of XRP to soar along with the stock price if a Ripple stock were to be created and it rose to the heights that Jones' calculations predict. Since Ripple would be the first publicly traded firm to use a #cryptocurrency in this scenario, there is actually no prior experience. The relationship between Bitcoin and the stock price of Bitcoin mining companies, however, can be used to make certain comparisons. The stock prices of Bitcoin mining businesses frequently increase along with increases in the price of bitcoin. This occurs frequently because an increase in one's faith also results in an increase in another's faith. Extending the same reasoning to Ripple, a rise in the stock price would probably spur interest in the cryptocurrency it is based on, raising the price of XRP. It is not unusual to predict the price of XRP to cross $5 at least if the stock price eventually rises above $600. Furthermore, the performance of the two assets would probably be highly correlated, so a decline in one could result in a decline in the other, and vice versa.
