{"content":"Here’s How High XRP Price Could Go After the 2028 Bitcoin Halving The XRP price could skyrocket by over 2,200% from the current value if XRP resumes its upsurge momentum after the Bitcoin halving. Notably, the Bitcoin halving, which reduces Bitcoin’s issuance rate every four years, typically has a positive impact on Bitcoin price, as it triggers a drop in inflation amid growing demand. Interestingly, this event not only affects Bitcoin’s price. Due to the firstborn crypto’s influence on the broader market, altcoins such as XRP also react positively. As a result, analysts believe the next Bitcoin halving could have a massive impact on XRP price. For context, Bitcoin has undergone four halvings since its inception in 2009. However, XRP has only been around for three of those halvings, having launched in 2013, and the effect of each of these three halvings has been undeniable. XRP Price Action After Each Bitcoin Halving Specifically, during the second Bitcoin halving in July 2016, the XRP price traded for $0.0066. Interestingly, 12 months after this event, in June 2017, XRP had claimed a peak price of $0.3662. This represented a massive 5,448% increase from its price during the second halving. When the third Bitcoin halving occurred in May 2020, XRP traded for $0.21. The XRP price skyrocketed 12 months later despite the bearish pressure introduced by the SEC lawsuit from December 2020. By April 2021, about 12 months after the third halving, XRP had hit a peak price of $1.96, representing an 833% rise from the price during the halving. Meanwhile, as the fourth halving emerged in April 2024, XRP price traded for $0.55 at the time. Following the persistent pattern, XRP surged to $3 about 12 months after the halving, in March 2025. This marked a 445% increase from the price of $0.55 during the April 2024 halving. While XRP had already attained legal clarity in the SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit at the time of the fourth halving, it still has some legal baggage, as the final resolution of the case is still pending.
