XRP Holders React Strongly to Ex-Ripple CTO’s $100 Price Commentary
The $XRP community found itself divided after comments from former Ripple CTO David Schwartz resurfaced regarding the possibility of XRP reaching the $50–$100 price range. What began as a cautious response quickly escalated into a heated debate across Crypto Twitter.
Schwartz was responding to a user who claimed $XRP could never reach such levels. In his reply, he stated:
“I don’t feel comfortable saying something like that.”
While the statement was measured, it immediately caught the attention of the XRP army. Many interpreted it as skepticism, even though Schwartz later clarified that his discomfort was rooted in probability, not dismissal.
Schwartz’s Track Record: A Lesson in Underestimation
To understand the context, it’s important to revisit Schwartz’s personal history with XRP. He entered XRP at approximately $0.006 and later began selling around $0.10, a move that already represented a gain of nearly 1,567%.
However, XRP didn’t stop there. The asset eventually surged to $0.25, proving that even one of its earliest architects underestimated its upside potential. This historical example highlights a recurring theme in crypto markets: early expectations often fail to capture long-term growth.
Crypto Analyst Bird Weighs In
Crypto analyst and XRPL developer Bird (@Bird_XRPL) addressed the controversy, emphasizing that Schwartz’s caution should not be confused with bearish sentiment.
According to Bird, statements such as “I don’t think it’s likely” reflect risk-based probability, not certainty. In financial markets, probability assessments are tools for managing expectations — not definitive forecasts.
Bird further pointed out that Schwartz once considered Bitcoin reaching $100 an “impossible dream.” Bitcoin later went on to exceed $120,000, reinforcing the idea that cautious outlooks do not limit future outcomes.
Probability vs. Belief: A Key Distinction
One of the most misunderstood aspects of Schwartz’s comments is the difference between likelihood and belief. Bird explained that Schwartz’s wording reflects experience-driven prudence rather than a lack of confidence in XRP.
This distinction is critical. Many seasoned developers and analysts remain conservative in public commentary, not because they doubt the asset, but because markets consistently outperform early models.
What This Means for XRP Investors
From $0.006 to over $2, XRP has already demonstrated an ability to exceed expectations. Schwartz himself has previously explained why XRP cannot remain undervalued indefinitely, given its role in global payments infrastructure.
Bird urged investors to view these remarks within the broader context of crypto history. When insiders express caution, it often reflects lessons learned — not bearish conviction.
Is XRP Headed Toward $100?
While reaching $100 XRP would require massive adoption, liquidity expansion, and regulatory clarity, many analysts believe it is not impossible over a long-term horizon.
Bird concluded that when someone with Schwartz’s experience says “I don’t think it’s likely,” it should be read as context — not a warning. In his view, Schwartz remains fundamentally aligned with XRP’s long-term vision.
As history has repeatedly shown, crypto markets have a habit of defying even the most informed expectations.
Final Thoughts
XRP’s journey so far proves one thing clearly:
Early doubt does not define future performance.
For investors, the key lies in separating emotional reactions from rational interpretation — and understanding that caution from veterans often carries more insight than fear.

It appears that AVAX has been forming a triple zig-zag correction on a high time frame. After further study of lower time frames, I have discovered smaller fractals of this correction of lower degrees. Price action is currently supported by the 1.272 pocket, which COULD lead to a reversal, but the1.618 (Wave "W" × 0.618) is a favored ratio above the 1.272 . However, there are crumbs on a lower time frame that suggest we may be experiencing another fractal of this structure.
On The 8-Hour Chart
An ABC correction has complete, and has price has become impulsive to the down side; the dominant trend has resumed. Price is currently in the Golden Window (0.618-0.786) retracement of wave B and in an area of high liquidity. Could this be a shakeout reversal pattern or continuation pattern? 👇👇👇
On the 1-Hour Chart
An exotic expanded running flat was printed that potentially marked wave 2 or B of a higher degree. Afterward came a 5 wave impulse down with a truncated 5th followed by an ABC to the upside. It's possible that we are in the middle of a zig zag correction and are waiting for confirmation of wave 2 of the potential 5 wave impulse down. An invalidation level would be @ $12.49 and would suggest that the high time frame triple zig zag may be complete at the 1.272 of wave "W". 👇👇👇
...if price action continues to the down side the 1.618 of wave A is a common area of retracement. The 1.272 ratio on the 1-Hour chart is also a potential retracement level, but less common than the 1.618.

On January 21, Eastern Time, U.S. President Trump has reached a future agreement framework with NATO regarding Greenland.
Completely cancel the tariff threat to European allies that was set to take effect on February 1!
Geopolitical risks have been lifted, global risk appetite has fully rebounded, and the three major U.S. stock indices have surged violently, while spot gold and silver have come under pressure and corrected!
The cryptocurrency market welcomes an excellent long position window — Bitcoin has strongly rebounded back to the $90,000 level, and Ethereum has firmly stabilized above $3,000 while quickly advancing!
The tariff clouds have dispersed + Trump reiterates that the U.S. aims to be the 'global cryptocurrency capital', institutional funds are accelerating backflows, altcoins are poised for a rally, this wave of Trump’s 'flood-like' favorable policies reignites the bull market engine!
BTC rush to 100,000, is it just a matter of time for Ethereum to return to 4,000?
FOMO players, can't sit still on the bench anymore, right? 🚀🔥

Trump's recent actions are indeed very "Trump-like":
Yesterday, because of Greenland (or did he mistakenly say Iceland?), the U.S. stock market dropped over 2%. Today, he changed his tune, saying "no military takeover of the island" and "we've already discussed a framework with NATO" and "tariffs won’t be increased for now," resulting in an immediate rebound in the U.S. stock market, with the Dow soaring several hundred points, and the S&P and NASDAQ also opening high.
Then he calmly added, "That little drop yesterday? Insignificant! The U.S. stock market will double in the next year!"
The imagery is so strong, it’s simply the stock market version of "first a slap, then a piece of candy":
Day one: I want Greenland! No? Then raise tariffs! (Stock market -2%)
Day two: Oh, don't be nervous, I won’t hit anyone... let's talk about the framework~ (Stock market +1%+)
Control? Not at all! I just gently... influenced global risk preferences a bit.
From this, several points can be seen
1. Greenland is a black swan in the stock market
In the past, black swans were pandemics, geopolitical wars, and financial crises; now it has escalated—one piece of ice can make Wall Street shudder.
Trump successfully transformed the term 'polar bear market' from meteorology to finance.
2. Does he know he can control it?
Control? No, he is just 'gently guiding market sentiment', okay?
It's like your cat knocking over a vase, and after it breaks, it looks at you innocently: 'Meow? I was just testing gravity.'
Then you coax it, and it comes back wanting snacks—markets are the same; scare it a bit and it drops, comfort it and it rises; Trump understands 'cat slave economics' very well.
3. The value of the doubling prophecy
He said doubling ≈ 'In the next 12 months, I will continue to create N similar plots:
First create panic → then dramatically reverse → the market will be grateful and soar'.
So strictly speaking, he is not predicting the stock market; he is foreshadowing his upcoming performance art.
4. The ultimate conclusion (Schrödinger's tax)
Trump is not controlling the stock market; he is just playing a super-sized 'Schrödinger's tariff' game:
Before the tariff box is opened, there are two simultaneous states: 'to add' and 'not to add'.
When investors are trembling, it's a superposition state; when Trump opens his mouth to announce 'no increase' → wave function collapses → everyone goes long.
So the real controllers of the market are... Schrödinger and Trump's collaborative performance art.
To sum it up in the most annoying way:
Trump did not control the stock market; he is just the 'emotional DJ' of the stock market, playing sad remixes when he wants it to drop, and high drops when he wants it to rise; Greenland is just the song title he chose today~ 🎧🧊📈

Right now, ETH already had a big drop. After a big drop, the market usually does two things: it either moves sideways for some time, or it makes a small bounce and then drops again. This means the easy trade is already finished, and now we must be careful.
At the moment, ETH is trading between support and resistance. It is not strong, and it is not clearly reversing up. Because of this, the best strategy for a day trader is not to chase price in the middle.
If ETH moves up toward 2970–3010 and starts to slow down, show small candles, or gets rejected, that is a short scalp opportunity. This is a quick trade, small profit, in and out.
If ETH goes down near 2900 and holds there, then makes a higher low and starts to move up again, that can be a small long scalp. This is only a short bounce trade, not a big move.
If price stays in the middle and does nothing clearly, the best trade is no trade. Waiting is also a position for a day trader.
The key rule to remember is this: don’t predict, react.
We wait for price to come to a clear area, then we trade the reaction.
Along with Ethereum $BTC and $SOL will also follow the same chart.
