This XRP Chart Blew My Mind...

Added: 2026-06-04

[00:00:00]Volume is rolling back into the cryptocurrency market in a really big way. Now, we just saw a 1,000x candle wick on the XLM price chart. In this video, I want to talk about what we're seeing taking place and what this means for XRP in terms of its big move.

[00:00:15]Guys, I'm going to show you a couple charts that will let you know that XRP's move is loading up as we speak. We're going to take a look at a couple other things, so make sure you stick around for this whole thing. Like always, you're support me so much to this channel. Thank you everyone who likes and subscribes. And with that said, let's jump right into it. I hope you guys enjoy the content. supposed to start off this video and actually share with you something I think is really important to understand and something that I think trips a lot of people up. A lot of people are taking a look at all these different cryptocurrencies that have smart contracts and all these different capabilities and saying the XRP ledger should copy some of these other crypto assets. Well, just so you know, I think a lot of that functionality, that developer usability, all these different feature sets that people claim are super important are a little bit more complex in terms of how they impact price. I think a great example of this is actually Cardano.

[00:01:01]Cardano actually saw a massive decline in the price of its token after it launched smart contracts on the blockchain. The only reason I put this out there is because a lot of people want to see the XRP ledger copy a lot of other blockchains out there in terms of unlimited functionality. But the truth is is there's actually a lot of reasons why I believe unlimited functionality might not be the best thing to implement. The truth is is unlimited functionality is likely something that is going to be very important in terms of creating blockchains that have a lot of developer activity. But the truth is is there's no proof that a lot of developer activity is going to lead to production environments. The truth is is a lot of the developer activity is likely going to be done in development environment. And the problem is is there is so many different people and so many different projects fighting to be the next best smart contract platform. You have Suie, you have Salana, you have Hideera, you have ADA, you have Ethereum, right? You have all these different projects all fighting in my opinion over the same exact market which is who is going to have the best developer smart contract platform. The XRP ledger is running a race of its own.

[00:02:20]is running the race of fixed functionality. Rather than having unlimited features, but also unlimited vulnerabilities, the XRP ledger is looking to implement the most important features of finance directly into its native codebase. And the idea there is you don't need to have a infinite amount of things that can be created on these chains. Instead, you just need 99% of what is important in the current financial system today. That mentality is extremely unique. It's extremely differentiated and really only held and maintained by the XRP ledger. So, just understand there's a lot of people who are going to try to say that the XRP ledger should go copy all these other chains, but the truth is the XRP ledger has one of the highest market caps out of any other cryptocurrency and maybe it should be doing a lot less of trying to be like other things that haven't worked as well as XRP itself. With that said, I want to take a look at something really exciting going on in the market right now, and that is what is going on with XLM. What we saw this morning was actually a,00% candle wick on the XLM price chart going all the way up to $2.20.

[00:03:32]Now, this candle wick specifically was on Bybit. And it's important to realize that Bybit has a ton of liquidity. It's not some small shop exchange where they get liquidated of all their XLM and then boom, there's a big price spike and then they get more and they can fix the price. Bybit is a monster and they still had this wick happen. In my opinion, it's just one of those things that makes me think there are a lot of people trying to suppress this market. And every once in a while, price can break through their cell walls for a very, very short amount of time ultimately before they can regain control. I'll just say this, I only think there is so long that they can keep their thumb on the scale. I think there is only so long they can keep suppressing these prices.

[00:04:19]And the good news is is what XLM is showing us is there's a lot of excitement coming back to the market in general. A lot of people likely know my thoughts on XLM at this point. I think it's very similar to a Google and Bing scenario where I look at XRP as a Google and XLM is a Bing. Not to say that Bing wasn't wildly successful and got so many users over time and so much adoption, but the truth is is I just think XL XRP is in a better place. So am I concerned about XLM pumping first and XRP not moving yet? Absolutely not. I've been down this road a million times. I've seen a million things pump before XRP.

[00:04:54]But the truth is is the market always gets it right with time and XRP always catches up. And in fact, not only does XRP catch up, it tends to hold its gains much better than any other cryptocurrency. So, I worry a lot of people are losing sight of the fundamentals, losing sight of really what's important and not getting excited about the fact that doesn't really matter what's running in what order. The truth is is just seeing excitement and liquidity come back to the market should let you know that it's going to flow into XRP eventually. Whether that's next week, whether it's tomorrow, whether it's in a month from now, in my opinion, it doesn't matter. XRP has been one of the best performers in every single market over the course of its entire history and that is not going to change.

[00:05:40]Taking a look at the XRP price chart, guys, I don't think you can get a price chart in any asset that looks better than this. Take a look at XRP right here consolidating right on top of those previous monthly highs. This right here is what you love to see in a price chart. Yes, we got super exuberant. We blew through the previous all-times highs in 2018 and 2021 and then ultimately we fell back down. But what we're seeing is XRP is holding these highs really, really well. And I wouldn't be surprised if watching XLM is not guiding exactly where XRP is going to follow. I just think the XRP price chart is cleaner than the XLM price chart. XLM actually fell really far down if you did a comparison to the XRP price chart. probably all the way down well below its previous all-time highs, which totally fine, right? It's not to say that that's some huge problem, but I just love the way XRP is consolidating right on top of them. It makes everything nice and clean. The chart formation's phenomenal, and I just think in terms of the things that XRP and Ripple have been doing over the past couple years, there are things that the market hasn't necessarily recognized yet. But I really think people are severely sleeping on the importance of Ripple Prime having a prime broker and routing realworld trade volume through the XRV ledger. That's how you get mass adoption in my opinion. The DTCC tokenizing assets on different chains, it's super exciting. But ultimately, one of my biggest pet peeves with a lot of the tokenization things happening so far is all these assets get tokenized but not traded. Ripple Prime is the key to change that. Ripple Prime is what is going to drive actual trade volumes and actual settlement through the XRP ledger. So, it's not a big pot of tokenized assets sitting around and no one using them. The vertical integration of what Ripple did to build an entire company systemically around XRP and handle custody to trading to lending to borrowing to settlement all on top of the XRP ledger. In my opinion, that is Amazon-like activity. It's not one piece where a company has to come in and they might have to use a different person for custody and then they might have to use a different person for execution and then a different person for lending and then a different person for trading.

[00:07:54]Like what Ripple is doing is just bringing all those things in one house.

[00:07:57]So they're the corporate institutional cryptocurrency player that anyone can go to to instantaneously have access to the market. There is tremendous value in my opinion to that and I just think all that activity ultimately comes down to the XRP ledger in a way where a lot of other chains might have a piece here or there that could be equal or even better to the ecosystem reser created but when you have that all in one place when you follow that Amazon playbook of creating that entire ecosystem that's where long-term value sits and guys I just think the whole idea of this concept in particularly that I'm about to read on the is maybe one of the most powerful in the entire crypto space. There's a lot of different narratives in all of crypto, but I really do think there's a very unique problem being solved with XRP.

[00:08:46]And this was pointed out by Saul ear Saul earlier today. He said, "If Germany and Russia need to settle out a trade balance, does Germany want rubles? Does Russia want euros? Do either of them want to use dollars?" You already know the answer. The truth is is not only is the XRP ledger a space age way of settling, transmitting, and moving value all around the world for fractions of a second instantaneously, but there is something more powerful than that. The world we're heading into is one that is completely geopolitically separated and economies are being more separated and pulled out of the United States economy than ever before.

[00:09:24]You are going to need some neutral decentralized asset to create liquidity between all these different segmented financial systems because none of these countries are going to stop doing business with one another. XRP as an asset, right? just as the ticker, just as the token has a very unique value proposition in being able to solve this massive problem. Because the truth is is no one sits closer to the central banks than Ripple. No one sits closer to the massive financial institutions than Ripple. by positioning XRP in a place where not only is the XRP ledger a core utility, but XRP the asset is a unique differentiated problem-solving solution to this massive issue of global liquidity and trade between these nations. That has a power and that has a capability to completely transform the entire financial system and how countries do business with one another.

[00:10:26]This right here is something that no other cryptocurrency is looking to solve. XRP has a very unique value proposition outside of all the great technology, outside of all the very, very important things that Ripple is doing in just being neutral decentralized liquidity between FX currencies. And that is something that is very unique to the XRP ledger. It's something you don't need smart contracts for. And it's something that no new interesting project is ever going to be able to catch up to. Guys, in my opinion, this might be the holy grail of the use case of all of crypto. And it has XRP's name written all over it.

[00:11:02]Thank you so much for coming. I hope you enjoy this update. And for now, pick a
