Top crypto analyst Dan Gambardello has stirred the community with a bullish forecast, suggesting that both Cardano (ADA) and XRP could reach $10 in this market cycle. Taking to X, Gambardello stated , “Cardano and XRP seem like they both may hit $10 this cycle,” adding, “That would be fine with me.” While the statement sparked enthusiasm from some, others questioned the feasibility of such a massive price surge. One user, “T,” replied, acknowledging Gambardello’s optimism about XRP and ADA. However, he argued that “those are some wild numbers.” T went on to say that market cycles are more about fundamentals than price targets.

He pointed out that a $10 ADA price would put Cardano’s market cap at approximately $350 billion. According to him, this massive cap wouldn’t be unreasonable, given that Ethereum reached a $500 billion market cap in the last cycle. Moreover, he argued that while Ethereum hit half a trillion dollars in the previous cycle, its technology “does not even come close to Cardano,” dismissing the $10 price target for ADA as unrealistic. However, the critic countered that price targets should not be based on historical market cap trends but on the actual expansion of blockchain fundamentals. “Fundamentals drive the narrative, not arbitrary market caps,” T responded. Notably, ADA is trading at $0.7114 at press time. Reaching $10 would require an astonishing growth of 1,305%. Cardano’s ability to achieve this magnitude of growth is under question, as its yearly trajectory shows a gain of only 14.66%. Moreover, at its current price, Cardano is trading a staggering 77% below its all-time high of $3.10 from the last cycle.

Specifically, XRP needs to grow by about 316% to reach $10. Notably, XRP is also below its all-time high of $3.84, trading roughly 37% lower. However, XRP boasts an impressive yearly gain of 288%. It’s also worth noting that if XRP were to reach $10, its fully diluted market capitalization would reach a staggering $1 trillion.

The long-standing litigation war between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is yet to come to an end, with the regulatory agency recently dropping several high-profile crypto cases. The lengthy litigation has been subject to much speculation with some analysts pointing to the possible intention of Ripple to slow down settlement talks for a better deal. Lawyer James Murphy, who is also MetaLawMan on social media site X, has proposed that Ripple is in negotiations with the SEC to have major decisions in the case overturned. His thesis is based on Judge Analisa Torres’ ruling, which, although helpful in some ways, also convicted Ripple of breaking securities laws. The verdict was accompanied by some injunctions that may hamper Ripple’s future ability to make securities offerings or an IPO, as well as the increasing chances of an XRP ETF approval in 2025, as reported earlier. Murphy surmises that Ripple is using the ongoing process to negotiate for changes in the court’s conclusions prior to settling for a final settlement. “It’s highly possible that Ripple may be dragging out the lawsuit to try and buy more time to negotiate a better deal with the SEC,” he said. He feels the SEC would be amenable to a solution where both sides withdraw their appeals, and Ripple pays its $125 million fine. From his viewpoint, though, the party delaying is not the regulatory commission but Ripple. Conversely, attorney Fred Rispoli has a different opinion. He argues that the delay is on the part of the SEC and not Ripple. In earlier remarks, Rispoli intimated that the commission’s reluctance to seal the settlement could be due to internal issues regarding amending the financial penalty imposed on Ripple. Rispoli quoted SEC commissioners Mark Uyeda and Hester Peirce as not wanting to own the job of amending Ripple’s $125 million penalty. “My best guess is that, given the $125M judgment, that is real money that Uyeda and Pierce do not want to have responsibility for modifying,” he stated in an X post published on February 25. He went on to suggest that the delay might be the result of no desire to take an unpopular decision, which he characterized as an act of “cowardice.” Regardless of the disagreement on who is responsible for the delay, both legal analysts appear to concur on one point: the case is drawing to a close, as highlighted in our previous story. Murphy puts the possibility of the issue being resolved prior to April 16, the deadline for Ripple’s last appeal brief, while Rispoli anticipates a dismissal within the next few months.

SEC drops appeal against Ripple $XRP, but legal battle continues The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has agreed to withdraw its appeal against Ripple, pending Commission approval, according to former Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett on X. The decision means Judge Torres' August ruling, which found that Ripple’s programmatic XRP sales did not violate securities laws, remains in place. However, Ripple has not dropped its own appeal challenging the $125 million fine and the injunction restricting XRP sales to institutional investors without SEC registration. Sources suggest the next move is in Ripple’s hands, as the company could either continue appealing the fine and injunction or choose to drop the case. It remains unclear whether the SEC will seek further negotiations regarding the district court ruling. If the appeal withdrawal is approved, the SEC will no longer actively pursue charges against Ripple, bringing a four-year legal battle closer to an end.

As Ripple’s protracted legal battle with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues, speculation about a potential settlement is gaining traction. With the April 16 deadline for Ripple’s reply brief in the SEC’s appeal process drawing closer, whispers are suggesting that the regulatory body might be considering withdrawing its case. Crypto commentator Andrew Parish hinted at an imminent resolution, citing SEC insiders who anticipate a reduced fine and a reclassification of XRP toward commodity status. If this pans out, it could be a significant decision with implications not just for XRP but potentially setting a precedent for the broader cryptocurrency industry. On the other hand, lawyer Bill Morgan remains cautious, emphasizing that the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the Ripple vs. SEC case—whether due to a final settlement or a prolonged appeals process—could exert downward pressure on XRP’s price in the coming weeks. Morgan stated in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that there is a strong possibility XRP could face bearish pressure if the Ripple lawsuit doesn’t reach a resolution soon. At press time, XRP is trading at $2.27, down 2.67% in the past 24 hours with a 13.24% drop in the trading volume, as per CoinMarketCap data . The digital asset is facing resistance at the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $2.34, a level it needs to reclaim for further upward movement. The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator is showing signs of a mild recovery, with the MACD line (blue) crossing above the signal line (orange), confirming a bullish divergence. The MACD histogram is also showing green bars, suggesting that buyers have short-term control over the price direction.

A break above the 0.618 Fib level ($2.736) could pave the way for a rally toward the $3+ range. Related: Ripple vs. SEC: Is a Settlement in Sight After Years of Legal Sparring? Additionally, a major target for bulls is the 1.618 Fib extension ($3.678) if XRP gains momentum. Meanwhile, the 2.618 and 3.618 Fib levels ($4.777 – $5.876) also present potential upside targets if bullish sentiment returns following a favorable legal outcome. On the downside, if XRP fails to hold the $2.18 support level, it could revisit the $1.90 mark or even lower.
