The XRP price has been a lightning rod for speculation ever since Ripple’s courtroom battles began dominating headlines. With partial victories in the US and growing adoption overseas, bulls now claim XRP could climb as high as $6 in 2025. That would be a huge win for loyal holders, but analysts argue it pales compared to what newer projects might deliver. One Ethereum Layer 2 token in particular — Layer Brett ($LBRETT) — is being called a stronger play for traders chasing 50x multiples.
XRP price forecast stirs debate
The community around XRP has grown used to volatility. After years of regulatory hurdles, the tide has shifted slightly in Ripple’s favour, and optimism is back. Analysts pointing to RippleNet’s expansion in Asia and Europe say a XRP price surge to $6 is not unrealistic, especially if more institutions join the network. Supporters also highlight its strong liquidity and ongoing partnerships with payment providers. But even with those positives, critics point out that XRP is a large-cap asset. That makes 50x returns almost impossible in the near term. For retail traders seeking life-changing gains, the conversation quickly moves to smaller-cap tokens.
The problem with chasing old memes
The meme coin space shows how quickly attention shifts. Brett on Base had its run as a cultural hit, but without scalability or long-term vision, it’s struggling to keep momentum. Analysts now talk about it as a meme “stuck” on Base — fun while it lasted, but with its growth curve already flattening. That shift in mood has opened the door for Layer Brett, a spin on the same meme but rebuilt for Ethereum Layer 2. By escaping its Base origins, the project offers lightning-fast transactions, low fees, and features that put it closer to utility than novelty.
Layer Brett’s explosive presale
At the time of writing, Layer Brett is priced at $0.0058 in presale and has already raised over $3.9 million, just shy of the $4M milestone. Staking rewards are eye-catching too, sitting around 650% APY, though they fall quickly as more holders join. With a fixed supply of 10 billion tokens and allocations for liquidity and community growth, the tokenomics are transparent. The roadmap includes NFT rollouts, gamified staking, and cross-chain bridging — elements designed to sustain activity long after launch. For many, that’s a sharper pitch than waiting years for another XRP price breakout.
Community energy drives FOMO
Momentum is visible across social platforms. Telegram and X communities are both nearing 10k members, TikTok has surged past 25k followers, and YouTube reviews are pulling in thousands of views within days. As one trader posted in a Telegram chat: “LBRETT is moving faster than anything I’ve seen — the speed and fees crush ETH.” This kind of organic buzz is often the difference between a presale that fizzles out and one that snowballs into a viral movement. Analysts say it mirrors the community spirit that once sent XRP soaring, but with fresher energy and meme-driven appeal.
Why traders expect sharper multiples
In a direct comparison, the difference is clear. The XRP price could indeed rally to $6 in 2025, rewarding loyal holders. But the upside is measured in multiples of 2x or 3x at best. Layer Brett, on the other hand, offers early entry at fractions of a cent, staking rewards still in the hundreds of percent, and a roadmap packed with catalysts. For traders looking for 50x gains, it ticks every box: Hype, tech, scarcity, and community traction.
Layer Brett’s presale is live at $0.0058 — grab tokens now, stake early while rewards remain sky-high, and position before XRP holders realise where the faster gains are hiding.
