If I get an offer of around 90-100k but am still interviewing at other firms and the recruiter asks me how much the offer needs to be to immediately accept, how much more should I say?

Is there a chance they will think thats a crazy high ask and take away the offer? Or would they just say another number but lower

Small, but nonzero chance it blows up the offer somehow. Not necessarily because anyone is going to get offended, but because the more steps you add the more likely it is that something goes sideways.
