XRP REMAINS STABLE & PRIMED FOR A BREAKOUT! - IS RETAIL GONE? - $1 XRP VS $1000 XRP - XRP NEWS!

Added: 2026-05-28

[00:00:00]Hello everyone and welcome back to the common sense crypto channel. As with you always, this is Rich doing another video today on XRP.

[00:00:12]So I hope you're all having a wonderful day today wherever you are in this great great world. We're going to talk about XRP. But before I get started, I got to thank all of you for the great comments over the last couple of days. I really appreciate it. And looking at XRP on the one-day chart, we're sitting here at a $133.

[00:00:36]XRP is moving 3 cents up and then it comes back down 3 cents. Then it moves back up 3 cents and you could see it on the oneweek chart as well. We are still in this channel between a$130 and a$140 waiting for some sort of rebound to send us to much higher prices, but it's just not happening yet. And it is absolutely coming. You just got to make it until it happens. And look at Bitcoin on the one day chart sitting under 76K.

[00:01:10]And the same story goes for Bitcoin.

[00:01:13]Everybody's still thinking it's going to plummet down under 50K while other people believe it's going back to $100,000.

[00:01:22]It's the same story with Bitcoin as what you see with XRP. You have the doom and gloom guys thinking that XRP is going well under a dollar. Again, then you have other people that are much more optimistic thinking that we're about to see a breakout begin at any moment. We just got to see what happens next. And here's the fear and greed index. We are now in fear. We're at 37. Yesterday, we moved back to neutral. And that's because the market dipped a little bit.

[00:01:56]Once the price starts breaking out, all of this will change. Right now, it's like nobody wants to put their money into crypto. They don't want to tie up their money. They're waiting for confirmation of a breakout to begin.

[00:02:09]Then they'll all FOMO back in the same thing that that they did with gold and silver. Dump 390 billion erased from the US stock market in just 75 minutes as Marco Rubio says US Iran deal talks will take several more days. It's not just the crypto market, it's the stock market getting hit with this all the time. And it's because of all that uncertainty and nobody wants to wait days. I mean, if some sort of announcement drops, people are like, "Okay, I'm taking my money and I'm leaving this space only to return a couple days later when the market turns green again." And along the way, they keep losing a little bit of their crypto. That's why I tell people, you got to be patient through the dips. And the only time you ever lose anything is if you actually sell.

[00:03:08]There are genuinely like 300 people left in crypto. This is actually very bullish. The people never quit are about to make generational wealth. It happens every time. I think there's a lot more than 300 people left in crypto. I think new investors are entering this space all the time because I see them on X and most of the people that are still here are the people that have been holding for a very long time and they have diamond hands and they're never selling their crypto. And here's R Paul confirming what I said. Retail didn't go away. They just need some green candles to chase. Take a listen.

[00:03:54]the fastest possible returns, if you go with the thesis that most retail investors, the Robin Hood crowd and the Coinbase crowd, they're generally in their 20s and 30s, they generally can't afford a house. They're generally working two or three jobs and they're looking for a way out.

[00:04:15]And so they will speculate. They're also a gaming generation. So losing your life is not the end of the world because you lose it in games and you start again, right?

[00:04:24]They grew up on gaming. So, it's a risk-taking culture and it's a logical risk-taking culture when there's no way of getting out of the trap unless you take risk.

[00:04:34]So, they just move where the returns are. So, they're all on Robin Hood trading options on Palunteer and tech stocks and then gold and silver start going, they start trading that. So if the returns start coming back to crypto and we know that over time cryptos outperformed I posted a chex recently about the gold crypto ratio. I mean I mean since 2020 I think crypto bitcoin's outperformed gold by 87 and a half%.

[00:05:05]So as soon as crypto starts moving it has that super massive black hole effect because it outperforms everything and it just sucks in capital. So they will be back. They didn't leave crypto forever.

[00:05:16]They just lost their stake at the casino and if they've got a stake, they went elsewhere to the different casino and they'll come back to whatever casino pays the best odds.

[00:05:24]>> And he's not wrong. What they're doing right now is chasing green candles.

[00:05:30]Wherever a green candle shows up, that's where they want to park their money.

[00:05:35]It's the same way you seen all those people lining up for gold and silver at the top. And you'll see it again in crypto. and he talked about how Bitcoin outperformed gold. Wait until he sees how XRP outperforms gold. XRP is still going to have the greatest return on investment in this space even from where it's sitting right now.

[00:06:01]Gold search trends for buy crypto Google search trends for by crypto have been rising steadily. Many traders are forecasting the return of retail traders. Like I said, people are getting interested in crypto again because think about it. If you enter this space now, you're literally buying the bottom and waiting for the massive returns to show up. You don't want to come in later when the green candles are already here because you'll be paying premium prices for these cryptocurrencies.

[00:06:38]It's the same way I always told people.

[00:06:41]It doesn't even matter what price point you bought at. If you bought at $3 and change, it doesn't really matter because we're going to go so much higher. Just wait until the institutional money hits this space. That's going to be the biggest gamecher we have ever seen in crypto. And here's the XRP ETF tracker.

[00:07:03]$13.64 million in volume. And that is on a down day. So even the volume on the ETFs now they're starting to pick up a little bit. Remember on a down day we used to see seven maybe 8 million in volume. Now it's almost double that. And on a day where XRP is sitting in the green, we're seeing $20 million plus in volume on those days as well. And all this volume means is that more and more XRP is being taken out of circulation.

[00:07:41]We are so close to the 1 billion XRP being locked in ETF vault benchmark. So that's 1% of the total supply being locked away. We are so close to that happening now. Just wait until later this year where eight or nine% of the total supply is locked away in ETF vaults. I'm telling you, scarcity will happen for XRP because the demand is not going away. It's consistent demand day after day and that's what's going to hold up the price of this cryptocurrency over time as well. XRP and Starlink.

[00:08:25]Now, everybody is speculating on this.

[00:08:29]You see, we will have XRP across Starlink satellites, and that's because American Airlines now experiences significant time savings because they're working with Ripple Treasury. They're also working with Starlink now. So, right away, people are making the connection between American Airlines, Starlink, and XRP. I want to see where this goes from here. I think it's too soon to say this has XRP written all over it. Let's see what happens over a short period of time. And this is a great clip. Take a listen to the question that she asked. When the XRP ledger was created, what do you think David Schwarz had in mind for a price target that would make the most sense in order to be using it for crossber payments?

[00:09:22]>> It's a really good question and uh you know I think it's something that they've obviously been very cautious on to speculate on. I think like if you look at some of the early forums like David had comments like XRP can't be low if it's been used at this kind of volume.

[00:09:37]at the time he said that I think XRP was in the like 50 cent range. So if he considers that low like what's high is that in the hundreds of dollars is that in the thousands of dollars I think David has seen enough things in his lifetime to realize that um if this thing gets mass adoption right like how much more powerful is that than what Doge is currently being valued at in the market. So, what price point do you think David Schwarz was talking about when it comes to mass adoption? Could it be in the hundreds of dollars? Could it be in the thousands of dollars? I remember somebody broke it down a couple years ago and they said the banks can't even touch XRP or utilize XRP at all unless it's a threedigit asset. So maybe that would be the starting point, but that would be more where the banks are using XRP. Now if you're talking about mass adoption, then I think it needs to be much higher where XRP is being used for domestic payments, micro payments, and crossborder payments at the same time. But I thought this was a great post, a $1,000 XRP versus a $1 XRP. And this breaks it down perfectly. So you see $1 XRP, low price, less effective to move $10 billion, you need 10 billion XRP. Moving that many tokens is slow, harder to track and manage. More volume, more congestion, higher risk. A $1,000 XRP, high price, more effective. To move $10 billion, you only need 10 million XRP. Fewer tokens to move faster and easier, easier to manage and track, more efficient, less congestion and lower risk. And there it is explained in the terms of delivery drivers. So at $1 to move a big amount of ex of money, you need a huge convoy of trucks. It takes more time, more gas, more traffic, and more can go wrong. At $1,000, you need far fewer trucks. It's faster, easier, cheaper, and much more efficient. So, if the banks were to utilize XRP, this is where a lot of people thought, well, the banks already have a set price for XRP.

[00:12:05]The IMF came up with that price point a long time ago, and it's in the thousands. And honestly, that would make the most sense because you need less XRP to move larger amounts of money. But that broke it down perfectly and it's so much simpler when you see it on a screen. The XRP FUD zone is near bottom levels. These are positive signs that there is not much room left on the ground for lower prices. And I totally agree. The FUD around XRP right now, it is absolutely insane. You have all those same narratives rushing back to this cryptocurrency. It's centralized. It's controlled by the banks. They're never going to let XRP investors get rich based on market cap previous cycles. All those same narratives that were with the XRP community for such a long period of time. But nobody wants to talk about supply and demand because when you start talking about that instead of market cap, all of a sudden you see much higher prices for this cryptocurrency.

[00:13:20]But like I said at the beginning of this video, right now we're still in that range between a$130 and a$140. Even now it looks like XRP is starting to level out. Most likely we will see a two or three cent move back up, maybe go sideways, maybe go a little bit higher, but we need a fullon reversal on this cryptocurrency already. I want to see the much higher price point show up. I want to see us break through a $151 and then hold. That will be the signal that it is go time. we would be then heading back to $2 plus and beyond. But like I always tell you, until it happens, stay patient, stay positive, and let's get rich together. With that said, I'm going to wrap up this video. I want to thank you all for watching. I appreciate all of you, and once again, thank you all for the great comments as well. I'll see you in the next one. Have a great night.
