    It’s so funny when I see people that don’t know how big $XRP will be.Yes, I hold other assets but don’t get it twisted.$XRP is the one for international pymnts.If you want me to explain why, I have over 800 videos for you to watch.I don’t care if you hold any. I’ll hold.

  • From SirRobArtII1:

    #XRP dumped 97% to $0.10, then pumped 660% to $0.76. It crashed 78% to $0.17 thereafter and pumped nearly 1,100%. If XRP actually crashes into the $0.20s, that would be a free ticket to 10-20X your entry. Bulls understand this. Frens too. Only noobs are frightened by this.🚀🚀🚀

  • From SirRobArtII1:

    Loaded up on #XRP at $0.60, if the market is generous enough will load up at $0.40 and $0.20s. Doubt it’ll be that good to me, but it’s not about WILL IT GO THAT LOW. It’s about DO YOU HAVE MONEY TO BUY IF IT DOES. That’s why I sold all my LTC earlier. To have options.
