XRP reaching $10 would require a major increase from its current price. But Digital Asset Investor has focused on a different question: how much capital would actually need to enter the market to move XRP through the order book.
In a video posted on X, he examined a claim from Chad Steingraber that used artificial intelligence to scan XRP order books and estimate the capital needed to push the price toward $10.
Digital Asset Investor began by discussing Steingraber’s analysis of XRP’s order books. Steingraber said he had an AI system scan the market and examine automated orders instead of relying on humans to place bids. The analysis then asked how much money it would take to move XRP to $10.
Digital Asset Investor explained that traders should not treat every visible sell order as committed liquidity. He said that “far asks are not committed liquidity” and noted that many orders between $5 and $10 could represent stale limit orders. According to his explanation, traders could remove those orders if XRP began moving sharply higher.
He then focused on the liquidity closer to the current market price. Digital Asset Investor said the live order book near the market’s current price contains roughly $9 million to $11 million for each 1% to 2% move.

Digital Asset Investor used those figures to make a broader point about capital required to move XRP through different price levels.
“It would not take a lot of money to push prices to where people think,” he said.
His comments centered on the difference between visible liquidity and liquidity that remains available when buyers actually enter the market. If sellers cancel distant orders as XRP rises, buyers could encounter less resistance at those levels than the displayed order book initially suggests.
However, the order-book figures alone do not establish that XRP will reach $10. The market would still need sustained buying demand across exchanges to maintain higher prices.

Digital Asset Investor then connected the order-book discussion to the Shane Ellis theory, which has circulated within the XRP community.
The theory proposes that institutional demand for XRP in cross-border settlement could rapidly reprice if existing liquidity cannot comfortably support large transactions. Supporters believe institutions handling transactions worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars would need deeper XRP liquidity to reduce slippage.
The theory also suggests that exchanges serving institutional payment corridors could clear available orders or adjust spreads as demand increases, potentially moving XRP into a much higher price range. Some versions of the theory discuss prices far above $10, although Digital Asset Investor did not make a specific price prediction in the video.
He said the order-book analysis reminded him of Shane Ellis theory and encouraged viewers to do the same.
