Where is the Direction in XRP? Is it Overexaggerated or Will it Increase by 2900%?
XRP is back in the spotlight; caught between bold price predictions and criticisms. Analysts foresee a rise of up to 2900% by 2026, while Jeff Dorman from Arca argues that XRP is "severely overhyped." Meanwhile, despite early celebrations from the XRP community, the lawsuit with US regulators has not yet concluded. In the meantime, whale movements are increasing, and Ripple's chart is showing bullish signals, but the path remains uncertain.

In the meantime, Minotaurus (MTAUR) is attracting attention with its high potential. While early investors target a profit of over 10,000%, MTAUR stands out as a fresh and new alternative against the long-standing story of XRP. So, which one is currently more dominant: a familiar giant or a new ambitious contender? We explore this in detail in this article.

Is XRP Still Being Overhyped, or Is It Being Misunderstood?
Arca's Investment Director Jeff Dorman sparked renewed debate with his comment that XRP is "overvalued." He argued that XRP, which has a market value of about $131 billion, lacks any current financial or practical use case to support this value. According to Dorman, the main driving force behind XRP is its long-established community and recognition in the crypto world. However, social support alone is not sufficient unless there is real use.

Dorman compared the current state of XRP to the GameStop frenzy: the attention-grabbing raises the price but there is no real growth behind it. However, he did not completely dismiss the future of XRP. Some moves made by Ripple, such as the acquisition of Hidden Road and the application for a broker-dealer license, could convert XRP's social impact into tangible use cases. "Not worthless," said Dorman, "But I can't define its value." For now, the market is divided.
Analysts Forecast a 2900% Increase by 2026
On the other hand, many analysts believe that XRP has entered one of the strongest phases in its chart history. According to technical analyses, XRP has completed a major Elliott Wave correction and is now entering the 3rd wave, which is generally considered the strongest phase of the cycle. Predictions vary over time between $8 and $12; the most optimistic estimates indicate a 2900% increase from current levels.

Whale movements support this view. In the last 30 days, investors holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP purchased 440 million tokens. The group holding between 1 million and 10 million XRP added another 190 million tokens. Analysts are particularly highlighting the resistance zone between 2.36 and 2.59 dollars, and breaking through this level could signal the start of a significant movement. If this scenario occurs, XRP could leave doubts behind and enter an upward trend.
A Clear Candidate with a Growth Potential Exceeding 10,000%: Minotaurus (MTAUR)
While XRP is moving forward with sharp movements and complex interpretations, the Minotaurus (MTAUR) stands out for a clearer reason: mathematics. Currently, the token is trading at just 0.00011001 USDT, with a listing price of 0.00020 USDT. Even this difference gives early investors a serious advantage. However, the main point that stands out is the long-term goal: 10,000% growth, that is, the price of up to 0.011 USDT. Some early investors believe that MTAUR offers a clearer investment opportunity compared to projects like XRP that are still waiting for real use.

Minotaur is also distributing rewards worth 100,000 USDT in its ongoing campaign. This bonus is given as MTAUR and allows investors to earn real tokens while taking positions early. This opportunity has generated new interest in the project and may accelerate the transition to the next funding phase.

Early investors are buying not only with hopes for growth but also at a significantly discounted price. Those participating right now can purchase MTAUR tokens at up to an 80% discount compared to the listing price. The current price is below 0.00012 USDT, while the listing will be at 0.00020 USDT. This difference alone represents a serious opportunity for investors, especially considering that over 2 million USDT has been raised so far.

The Minotaur project aims to establish a strong presence in the rapidly growing casual gaming sector. According to estimates, this market will reach a volume of 19.12 billion dollars by 2027. Currently, there are more than 17 million active mobile players. In-game spending is also on the rise; it is expected to exceed 74.4 billion dollars by 2025. Even if MTAUR captures a small share of this demand, it could quickly move past the presale stage. This potential is attracting the attention of investors.
Result
XRP is at a crossroads. While it has a strong community and long-term potential, there are still questions about its current value. Although technical analysis shows positive signals, critics argue that they have not seen clear progress. For many investors, being patient is essential.

On the other hand, Minotaurus (MTAUR) offers a more direct opportunity. It stands out with a clear listing price, the possibility of purchase at a significant discount, and its integration into a rapidly growing gaming market.

Whether you assess the potential for XRP to rise again or explore next-generation tokens like MTAUR, this market offers great opportunities for investors who make careful moves. It is now more important than ever to make wise decisions.
