John Deaton, a crypto lawyer, has suggested that Ripple's potential IPO could result in a valuation exceeding $100 billion, which is in line with previous analyst projections. Deaton believes that if Ripple wins the ongoing lawsuit against the SEC, an IPO could be expected within a year. He also highlighted Ripple's internal valuation, which was estimated at $15 billion based on its ownership of 45 billion XRP tokens, and theorized that if XRP reached $2 per token, Ripple's valuation would soar to $100 billion. Linda Jones, a Wall Street financial expert, has also estimated that Ripple's share could grow twenty times bigger if XRP reaches its previous peak value of $3.59.
