Why Will 99% of XRP Holders Sell Too Soon?

In a new video on X, Crypto X AiMan argues that most XRP holders will not hold long enough to see real profits. He believes that 99% will sell too early - perhaps around $5 or $10 - and miss out on the full potential of this token. But is that a reasonable prediction, or just another optimistic viewpoint on cryptocurrency? Let's analyze together. Currently, XRP is trading around $3.54. Just a few days ago, it reached a new all-time high of $3.65. For many, this has been a significant win. And for some investors, taking profits at this level is completely reasonable. After all, no one has ever lost money when taking profits. But according to AiMan, this is exactly what sets apart long-term believers and short-term traders. He stated that XRP is still in the early stages of a much stronger breakout, and those who hold tightly may see the price reach $5, $7, or even higher. Looking Back: Historical Lessons In the video, AiMan points out the past of XRP, stating that it soared from $0.50 to over $3 after the 2016 election. That’s not entirely accurate - XRP traded near $0.006 at the end of 2016 and didn't really start growing until 2017. But the bottom line remains: XRP has done it before, and some people believe it can do it again. AiMan stated that XRP could ultimately reach $40 if it achieves a market capitalization equivalent to Bitcoin. This is not just hype - it is basic math. With a circulating supply of about 59 billion tokens, XRP would need to reach a market capitalization of $2.3 trillion for each token to be valued at approximately $38.87. Is that realistic? Maybe one day. But it will require widespread adoption, possibly linked to XRP playing a core role in global finance – something Ripple has been quietly working towards through partnerships with institutions and regulatory compliance. Why Do People Sell Early So why do 99% of users sell too early? It's simple. Fear. Greed. Insecurity. AiMan pointed out that many holders will cash out at $5 or $10 to buy a car or cover expenses – this is understandable, but shortsighted, he argues. His message is clear: if you believe in the long-term value of XRP, hold tightly and ignore the noise. However, this is still a controversial viewpoint. Some X users oppose it, arguing that taking profits is not wrong - but rather smart. Others point out that Ripple still holds billions of XRP, and these tokens could create long-term selling pressure. Conclusion The core perspective of AiMan lies not only in price – but also in mindset. He believes that XRP is not just an ordinary altcoin, but an important part of the global payment system in the future. Whether you agree or not, one thing is clear: the debate about when to sell and the price that XRP can reach will not end anytime soon. Is it true that 99% of people holding XRP sold too early? Only time will tell. But if XRP reaches 40 dollars or more, the holders will be the winners.
