XRPâs recent price decline has sparked a heated debate among investors and analysts, with some predicting a further decline and others expecting a massive rebound.
Notably, the sixth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has seen a 20% drop in the past week, leading some to question its prospects.
Popular crypto investor and analyst âMr. Huberâ took to Twitter on Saturday to express his bearish view on XRP, calling it a âloser coinâ that has always been about losing. He shared a chart showing XRPâs 70% decline against the market in the last eight months.
Huberâs tweet was met with mixed reactions, with most respondents supporting his view.
âOn paper the best coin, in real life controlled by company with massive supply and dumping on holders to gain as much money out of it, meanwhile not even using it them self. Iâm happy i could switch most of them 1 for 2 ADA months ago.â Wrote one tweep.
However, not all holders share Mr. Huberâs pessimistic view. Some perceive the current price weakness in XRP as an advantageous buying opportunity, while others foresee the cryptocurrencyâs potential to strengthen, particularly as more users join Rippleâs global payments network, XRP Ledger.
Tech entrepreneur Kieran Kelly noted that despite the recent fluctuations, XRP remains a formidable digital asset for payments.
âXRP is a great digital asset for payments (speed, cost, transactions per second). The fundamentals are incredible for local or overseas payments.â tweeted Kelly.
Kelly further emphasizes the remarkable fundamentals of XRP, especially its ability to facilitate local and overseas transactions, adding that the key to XRPâs future success lies in its adoption by major entities like banks and institutions for everyday transactions backed by substantial transaction volumes.
Elsewhere, popular crypto analyst Black Swan Capitalist tweeted that seeing retail greed at all-time highs before a massive sell-off is common.
That said, despite XRPâs recent price decline sparking concerns among investors, its future still seems bright, more so if the ongoing lawsuit between Ripple and the SEC concludes in the formerâs favour or a spot XRP ETF is approved.
XRP was trading at $0.6199 at press time after a 1.31% upsurge in the past 24 hours. Itâs worth noting that the current price maintains its position above the crucial monthly support level of $0.55, which could play a significant role if thereâs further downward movement. However, itâs essential to note the presence of overhead resistance at $0.74, marked by a double top formation on the daily timeframe.
