A move from $1.87 to $3 in 48 hours would represent a 60.4% increase, significantly elevating xrp's market cap and potentially moving it to the no. 4 spot.
The price target is based on a prediction from an individual claiming an iq of 267, which the article itself describes as a 'random prediction.' there is no fundamental or technical analysis provided to support this claim.
The specific call is for xrp to reach $3 within 48 hours. however, the article notes significant resistance levels at $1.926, $2.050, and $2.366 that would need to be broken with substantial buying activity, which the current daily volume of $1.72 billion rarely supports for such a rapid ascent.
The prediction explicitly sets a 'two-day deadline' or '48-hour countdown' for the target price to be met.

The level of $2.050 is the next magnet and the next place where sellers can accumulate. The amount of $2.366 is the heavier barrier that must be broken for $3 to become an active target instead of just a figure in some random prediction.
