Bought some XRP in May 2017 at around 10c, but just a small amount, still have most of it left. If someone bought in Jan that year and sold in Dec they would have pulled nearly 500x.
I saw that yesterday. They send you margin call warnings if the LTV gets too low, before they liquidate your bitcoin, basically, you have a highly leveraged bitcoin play and they are calling it a 'LoAN'. Can't beat a good scam
I had a good think about buying XRP when it was about €0.02, but decided not to.
I think I've seen this film before, and I didn't like the ending

not this lending stuff again, have 100 squid (at todays rate) stuck in Celsius meltdown still to reimbursed
He's completely consumed by it. Ruined his life he says. He doesn't seem to understand he would have sold it all well before it was worth 1 million. He is one of those characters who would be complaining about how his life is ruined because he sold it too soon. Guy needs a doctor.
I was given free XRP when it started don’t even remember where I spent it, oh well
Anyways BTC up above $102k again
That bitcoin hdd in a dump story is getting old. If that hdd is indeed in there and even if they find it I do not think it will be in a state that will allow to recover anything other than 20c worth of aluminium and some neodymium magnets.
XRP supposedly hit $3.84 on 4th Jan 2018 on one of the Korean exchanges. But the real ATH is misleading
Scratch that, it hit it already today lol.
Looking like a new ATH soon, what a time to be alive.
I had 7000 xrp bought at 19c. Cashed them out at 50c and was happy to do so.
Hindsight and all that!
Only have 500 now.
I got some XRP at €0.2033, not too bad, only a hundred euros worth though
XRP has given me my greatest returns to date. Bought at .35. This is fact not an emotion or wish.
Well deserved too, it's been undervalued for years at this point.
xrp 3 bucks, none myself but nice for those who have held
Ripple IPO, XRP and RLUSD will lead the entire crypto industry into a new age 🙏
"Not a partnership" 😂😂😂

Not a partnership, remember a few years ago Microsoft admitted defeat with Windows phone and moved over to Android.
Similar going on here, Ripple adopts the Chainlink standard
Simplest of terms, Link Holders will be collecting fees from Ripple holders

A certain poster must be delighted with the chainlink ripple partnership today.
Nice push for btc today, still only in retracement though, interesting to see what happens next
I suspect the inauguration is a massive sell the news event much like Elon shilling doge on the tonight show? Not even confident of eth reaching it's all time high
Things might be volatile until the inauguration. Then people are saying things will pump. I don’t see anyone factoring in world events and black swans. I’m looking to start moving some to cash in batches during the next pump. Last time I sat on stuff I should have been taking profits from. People get attached to looking at balances going up.
Is that it, is 30% alt pullback complete and now recovering?
Bitcoin has the strongest encryption as it scales, there is far more money behind tradfi systems running on old cobol. Why would anyone go after bitcoin when these are far easier and far more lucrative.
I would agree although I was thinking abit higher than 107k. In the region of 140k peak (give or take 5/10k) around May/June 2025
All that UK gold money must be running out.
not good at all
https://www.reuters.com/markets/currencies/russia-is-using-bitcoin-foreign-trade-finance-minister-says-2024-12-25/
tho if them Russian mined blocks could be identified and black listed that means less bitcoins in circulation for rest of us hence can justify higher price
Merry Christmas.
Heading for $100k....again. 🥃
