‘I Took the Risk and Bought 10,000 XRP’ — Expert Believes These Words Will Define Future XRP Millionaires Stories

Edoardo Farina, the founder of Alpha Lions Academy, recently shared a powerful statement about the future of XRP holders. In a recent tweet , Farina envisioned a time when the mainstream market participants would view early adopters of XRP as "lucky," overlooking the bold sacrifices they made when few believed. He painted a future where today’s XRP investors would eventually achieve the wealth they had long dreamed of from XRP. According to his scenario, these investors would share anecdotal stories of how they sold their car to buy 10,000 XRP. Meanwhile, Farina suggested the world would see such people as having been lucky to get into XRP early. However, they would be missing the broader picture: the toll it took on these investors to enter XRP and believe in it at a time when skepticism was high, compounded by the asset’s periodic poor performance. Early Sacrifices with XRP Notably, XRP, despite its bullish fundamentals and growing adoption, continues to trade below its $3.84 all-time high, seven years and counting. The coin still hovers well below the lofty price predictions of $10, $100, or even $1,000 that have dominated the scene, predictions many believed would make holders rich. Instead, XRP remains around $2, and frustration about the lack of a considerable upward push is reaching a fever pitch. This comes as Bitcoin charts a price discovery phase beyond $100K, while XRP continues to battle resistance. According to Farina, holding XRP now and weathering the storm has nothing to do with luck but everything to do with risk and belief. He suggested that holding 10,000 XRP could make one rich if the unit price of XRP someday reaches $100 or more, turning such holders into millionaires. Given his conviction in this future, he has repeatedly urged the crypto community to try as much as possible to reach that holding threshold, as low prices won’t be available for much longer. Indeed, buying 10,000 XRP cost around $5,000 seven months ago, but those prices are now far behind. Community Echoes the Sentiment: Not Luck, But Conviction Notably, X user Fiora agreed with Farina’s post, stating that the journey of early XRP believers was anything but luck. According to Fiora, the reality behind success stories often involves risks that most people would never dare to take. Edward Navarro contributed to the thread by reflecting on what motivates many XRP holders to persevere through years of uncertainty. He explained that those outside the community may never understand why holders didn’t simply walk away with their profits. Instead, they remained committed because they believed in the value of XRP and aimed to impact the lives of others, not just themselves. "The Coin is Not Earning for the Longest Time" Meanwhile, not everyone agrees with Farina’s optimistic vision of a promising future for XRP. A user named Sun Shine urged people to distinguish between dreams and reality. He emphasized that the coin has not generated substantial returns for long. “The coin has not been earning for the longest time,” the comment noted. This underscores XRP’s nearly decade-long struggle to break past its all-time high and the frustration it gives holders.
