During his Squawk Box appearance on December 16, 2022, Jim Cramer said XRP was “destined to be wiped out,” together with Dogecoin (DOGE) and Litecoin (LTC).
The Mad Money host viewed the cryptocurrencies as weak compared to Bitcoin (BTC) and thus not promising in the long run.
“It’s like $80 billion worth of non-Bitcoin that’s really destined to be wiped out. There are still people who conflate blockchain with them,” Cramer said.
"I think you should be negative on #crypto. I'm negative on $XRP, $LTC, and $DOGE because I haven't been able to find anyone that takes them," says @jimcramer. "It's like $80 billion worth of non-Bitcoin that's destined to be wiped out." pic.twitter.com/lrFbjtT0Wn

Nearly three years later, however, the token is not only still alive but also enjoying a price Cramer would have found unthinkable back then.
Namely, XRP price has climbed from $0.35 after the broadcast to $2.41 at the time of writing, November 3, 2025, being nearly 590% in the green.
XRP continues to grow
While XRP has certainly grown since Cramer’s false predictions, the AI XRP price prediction outlook is still strengthening as new institutional developments fuel investor enthusiasm.
Namely, the XRP ecosystem is set for a major expansion in November, with Canary Capital’s XRP ETF expected around November 13–14, followed by a Bitwise product later in the month. Ripple also rolled out Ripple Prime in the U.S. on November 3, offering spot prime brokerage and over-the-counter (OTC) trading services for major digital assets.
From a technical standpoint, XRP price forecast remains capped below key resistance, with a push to $2.90 contingent on clearing $2.70. Moreover, support near $2.40 continues to hold, suggesting limited near-term downside unless broader crypto sentiment weakens.
Still, not everyone is convinced. Analyst Ali Martinez, for instance, warns of a possible retest of $2.25. Yet historically, November has been one of XRP’s strongest months, with a median 25% gain, lending support to near-term growth.
