Solana Just Posted "XRP" — And What's Behind It Changes EVERYTHING

In this hour‑long YouTube video, Kamilah Stevenson delivers a high‑energy market update that blends personal investing anecdotes, macro‑economic commentary, and a deep dive into the recent surge of activity around XRP. She begins by urging viewers to stay active in the markets, emphasizing dollar‑cost averaging, leverage awareness, and the importance of buying on dips. She recounts a recent speculative AI‑stock trade that yielded a 350% gain, illustrating the potential of high‑risk plays when managed with stop‑losses. The core of the video focuses on a week of unprecedented developments for XRP: Solana’s cryptic X‑post of the three‑letter ticker, the launch of wrapped XRP on Solana’s DeFi platforms (Jupiter, Phantom, Titan Exchange, Meteora) backed by $100 million in liquidity, and a cascade of institutional endorsements—including Japanese banks demonstrating sub‑4‑second cross‑border settlements, Rakuten’s consumer rollout, Société Générale’s regulated stablecoin, a Korean tokenized government bond, Swiss institutions moving $84 million into XRP‑ETPs, and a record $1.2 billion in spot‑ETF inflows. Stevenson explains wrapped XRP with a gift‑card analogy, highlighting how it enables XRP holders to access Solana’s fast, cheap DeFi without selling the native asset. She argues that this cross‑chain collaboration shatters the narrative of blockchain competition, positioning XRP for institutional cross‑border payments and Solana for retail DeFi. The discussion then expands to tokenization, inflation versus deflation, and the strategic use of staking and passive income across Solana, Ethereum, and traditional ETFs. Stevenson stresses the need for comprehensive financial planning—tax‑efficient accounts (Roth IRAs via iTrust Capital), trusts, and asset protection—to capitalize on the unfolding ecosystem. Throughout, she addresses emotional pitfalls (FOMO, lack of patience), encourages community engagement via Super Chats and a paid membership for deeper Q&A, and promises a follow‑up live session. The video concludes with personal anecdotes, a call to like and subscribe, and a reminder that wealth creation starts internally.

What's up everyone, I'm Kamilah Stevenson and around here we talk wealth. I see we got some international, uh, representations from other countries. South Africa, what's up? What's up, Vic War, uh, 5775? Hey, it's a great day. Go ahead and like and subscribe, we're gonna get into it. More news to reveal. Um, it's just been such a revealing week. Let me start off by saying I will, uh, address the markets on Monday on my live, and then always go deeper with my members, uh, right after. So, uh, I'm going to talk about a couple of moves I've been making. You know, the market has ripped against all resistance, uh, has done something it hasn't done in a long time, uh, so many consecutive days of green candles. And I will tell you that I don't believe everything is what it appears to be. And there's, uh, there is— I'll explain a little bit about that. I'll go into more depth on Monday. But let me just say this: I am excited that I have continued to participate in the market. Because remember, even if you're waiting for strong pullbacks, strong buying opportunities And there's a lot of intelligent investors that are still waiting on an intelligent buying opportunity. Okay, again, like the video. Um, but anyway, you should— I, I keep telling you guys to always participate in the market. I got into a speculative play that I wanted to wait a little bit of time to see how it would pan out. And some— sometimes you just get into certain stocks that you're not sure if it's going to Uh, what, what direction is going to go in basically, and you're okay with the risk because you know ahead of time. Well, I got into a particular AI stock, and let me tell you, this is why I say always participate in the market, because, uh, I was long-term minded on it, and that stock went up like 380, 350, somewhere around a little bit over 350% in like a week and a half. And, uh, and so hey, I took profits on— I took profit on, uh, half of my positioning. I'm, uh, I'm still waiting to see if there's more of a move, but I do have a stop loss in place. So I want you to know that in a market like this, that remember, the market can be irrational more than you can stay, um, or more irrational longer than you can stay rational. So there's money to be made on the upside and the downside. So just remember that Again, hit that like button. Um, nothing I say is financial advice. Everything I say is for educational and entertainment purposes only. What's up everybody? Let me look through the chats. Um, so I just want you to know, if you're not participating, if you're not dollar cost averaging, um, you can, you can still participate in the market whether it's going up, down. Dollar cost average is very, a very simple principle. Be long-term minded. A lot of the plays that I'm in now, I'm looking out. I told you guys, for example, Microsoft is a play for me. I I told you guys before, I am heavily invested in SoFi. I am dollar cost averaging. If it drops, I buy much more. But, um, there's money to be made in the market, right? So, uh, what's up everybody? I see you. What's up from UK? Uh, Caraco— I always— am I saying that right? Kirakoa. Um, and it's so bad because my— I've— I used to have, um, uh, family, like, uh, spiritual family there. So I should be saying that right, even though I'm not. Y'all know my language is not always the best. Canada, what's going on? Um, southern Spain, I see a lot of international in the house, I love it. Pennsylvania, what's up? Share this video. What's up from Michigan? We're going to get into it. There is more news. This has been an explosive week for XRP. If your eyes are not open, I don't know what to tell you. What's up, Iowa? So I want to um, explain by, uh, helping you to understand kind of what happened in the XRP. And for you guys who are just coming in, don't worry, you haven't missed anything. I just want you to know, um, that I will be, like I said, talking about the markets a little bit more. There's leverage in the market, remember that. And the more leverage that has built up in, uh, in a system, the more violent the moves look in both directions. And so as we're going up, just understand that there may be a very a fearful drop when we're going up like this at some point. And I don't care if it's a week, a month, a year, there's a recession coming, okay? So there's a recession coming at some point. Like, the timing, I don't know, but there's a recession coming. Um, so I, I, I think, you know, people need to prepare and just make sure that they know that in the back of their head. But also, I keep saying Participate in the market, okay? Because always be buying, even if it's like I, I, I've been telling you guys, ETFs, I'm still buying them long term. I just buy more when it drops, okay? So we'll see what this move looks like. Just pay attention. Also, the move we're seeing to the upside is on weaker volume, okay? It's on lower volume. So I don't— there's no guarantee that there's been institutional um, buy-in. Okay, so just be, be mindful of that when you're looking at up moves and down moves. You have to look at the volume. The volume is actually going down. Okay, that means something. What's up from Detroit as, as well? All right, so again, like and subscribe. Not financial advice. I want to explain a post that Solana put on, um, on X, right? Uh, Billionaires to God, um, it has— it been 30 to 40 days? That's— some people get theirs a lot sooner, but if it has, if it has been, make sure you reach out to them and, um, ask them about that. Don't worry, they'll give it to you. Make sure that they know where you come from, my community, um, but reach out to them, um, and, and check on that because usually they say max 30 to 40 days, even though people have gotten it a lot sooner. But, uh, if you haven't got it, don't worry, it's going to get there, um, they will give it to you. So don't, um, don't worry about that. Uh, wealth transfer is coming. I, I love it, Jerry, and it is. So it is coming. Did she say from my city Detroit, or am I tripping? No, no, I'm from Chicago, right? Not too far though. Watching from, uh, from Canada. What's going on? Upstate New York. Thanks for your education. I appreciate all of you all. Now let me tell you what Solana posted. Solana posted one word on X, and I'm going to get into the background of this because this is more headline news that you got to pay attention to. You cannot make this up. This is all going to make sense, and I'm going to share with you one of the most explosive weeks that's, that's happened. Okay, so, uh, and thank you so much, I appreciate the Super Chat. Massive respect from UK, I love it. Um, can you say what crypto you hold? I stack XRP, HBAR, and ZBEC. I have all three of those. Um, but I also love XLM, I love Quant. Um, I do, uh, stack Solana. You can already get passive income off of Solana and ETH, and so I've made a lot of money off of them. I love X DC. Um, so those are a few. I love Flare. And so those are a few of the ones, but my top 3 are XRP, XLM, and HBAR, right? But I, I 100% love what ZBEC is doing. I've talked about, um, ZBEC Network and, um, how they're, you know, streaming payrolls. And man, I love that. I love that entire idea. And it's— to me, it's about the use case scenario and, uh, is it going to be used? Uh, we will find out that there are some things that we believed in that maybe don't get used. It just depends. Now, fast settlement is a guarantee. All you got to do is look at the institutional adoption, and what I explained today is going to, um, strengthen that case, because that's what I'm here to do, because a lot of people don't know it. But Solana went on Twitter— or, or Solana went on X, okay, it's that— Solana went on X and said, posted one thing, well, three letters: XRP. That's all they posted, Solana, right? They didn't get no explanation, no context behind it. They just— that's it, that's what they put. And that post got millions of views and, um, hundreds of replies, right? So of course the XRP, uh, went into full speculation mode when they saw it, like just wondering, oh, is this a partnership? Is something being announced? Uh, what does this mean? And then Ripple's own developer, um, account responded with the eyes emoji after that. So I'm just trying to show you what happened. So then I can tell you the background story. So yeah, they come on with the eyes like, well, you know, so that made things a little bit louder, you know. Um, so I am, I'm gonna explain, you know, what I, what's happening behind Solana if you haven't paid attention. Um, you know, to just what's been going on in, uh, in the XRP community and how I sold my house for XRP. Now I'm homeless, but soon Oh, please tell me you're not homeless for real. Okay, um, but you know, some people are making strong sacrifices, and you make sacrifices to the degree— to the degree of your conviction. Now I got 3 kids, so I can't sell my house for XRP, but the best thing we can do right now, right, is to, um— I love this, Michelle— Uh, I'm sorry, Michael. Sorry, sorry. Um, love this Michael Butler. Um, the best thing we can do is dollar cost average. All right, I am buying all the time. Like, what, y'all, we got enough time. Why, why people trying to wait for it to explode? We have time to accumulate. And it's in the accumulation, it's in the buy that you're going to get wealthy. It's not in the sale, it's actually in the buy. I keep telling you guys in more ways than one, you actually— and the reason why I say it's in the buy is because you actually never have to sell to become wealthy. You don't. You never have to sell to become wealthy. You have to buy though, okay? So that's a nugget for you to understand. For people sitting on the sideline, for people fearful, for people wasting their money on other stuff, the wealth is in the buy. It's not in the sale. Now I know people sell to take profit. That's not what I'm saying. And they, they use that to, you know, uh, I don't know, pay down credit cards or reallocate into other assets. And so yes, that is a part of wealth building. But it's really in the buy. Because first of all, you can't sell if you don't buy anyway, right? Where's the— where's it coming from? Okay, so just make sure that you continue to accumulate, right? So XRP and StateFi, I'm just looking at— okay, some of you guys got great— okay, XRP, ADA. Uh, I have ADA as well. I've been loading up on ADA for years. And, uh, ALGO, XRP, XLM, XDC, HBAR, Flare. Love it, love it. Love it. Um, love that. What you took a long time to say, Woodrow. Okay, so, um, let me, let me explain what's happening, okay, so that you can, um, not, uh, so that you can understand, uh, what the, the post, uh, you know, was representing, okay? It has to make sense once you understand it. So back in December of 2025, uh, two companies, Hex Trust and LayerZero, they launched something called wrapped XRP on the Solana blockchain. So let me explain what that means because I know it can confuse people still, uh, especially if you're new and you don't understand. So think about it this way, um, if you have $100 and you go into a store and this store only takes— accept gift cards, okay? So even though you have the $100, you can't spend it. You can't spend the $100 directly in that store even though it's worth exactly $100. Say you're trying to buy something worth $100, but they don't accept, uh, dollars. They only have gift cards. So let's say you go to a machine and you take that $100 and it gives you a gift card worth $100, okay? And so now you have on this gift card $100 that now works in that store because your dollars, your, your actual paper dollars didn't work. So your value did not change, but your $100 is— and your $100 is still your $100, it's just been wrapped in a form that now the store can use because they couldn't use it in the form that you had it originally. Okay, so that's essentially— I like to give analogies so people can understand— that's what wrapped XRP is. Okay, so you're— you have your native XRP on the XRP Ledger, that's where it is, and it gets held in institutional-grade custody backed one-to-one. So for every wrapped XRP that exists somewhere, there is a real native XRP sitting in a secure custody behind it, okay? And now that wrapped XRP can move inside of Solana's ecosystem, inside of DeFi protocols and lending pools and trading platforms, places where Native XRP on the XRP Ledger could not previously reach, just like your $100 couldn't buy anything in this store. But if you trade it, okay, and get a gift card, now you can use it. So the XRP can't be used in this DeFi, um, protocol, but if you wrap the XRP and XRP stays placed on the ledger but you wrap it so it takes on a different form, now you can participate Um, but that XRP is locked up now because it is one-to-one, okay? And so it's not a replacement for XRP, it's an extension of it, okay? Now here's what's amazing, that the integration has already attracted over 100 million in liquidity, okay? So this is 100 million of real capital that has already moved into this structure because institutional participations decided, hey, this is worth using. Okay, so, and as— and right now on Solana, I'm not huge, you know, I hold Solana, I've been holding it for a long time, but I'm not a huge investigator of Solana in the same way I am at least XRP, right? Um, so, but right now it is— today it's live on 4— the wrapped XRP on 4 major Solana platforms. Jupiter— and this is just so you can know, this is another way you can use your XRP. Jupiter, Phantom, Titan Exchange, and I don't even know if I'm pronouncing this right, but Meteora. I, I haven't used this platform, so, um, it's M-E-T-E-O-R-A, I think. Okay, so it's on those 4 platforms. Okay, and these are not like obscure applications. These are some of the most— you know, I've done my research on this. These are some of the most used platforms in the entire Solana ecosystem. So millions and millions of users interact with them on a regular basis. So let's go back to X. Solana post XRP. They're not teasing with something that might happen someday. They're pointing at something that already is live and has already attracted $100 million behind it. And that's more than likely what that was all about. And let me say this, let me just make sure I'm not missing any, um, let me go to the chats. Uh, just to make sure. Somebody said Kraken. Yeah, I like Kraken. Um, but remember to get your stuff off the exchanges. Supply shock at some point, you know, when the demand, um, outpaces the supply. When you have all of these different ways that XRP is being utilized, you got to think about what is really happening. And now you— so let me say this too, because there's always been a lot of competition, like for years The narrative in crypto has been that different blockchains are competitors. You got Bitcoin versus, you know, Ethereum or whatever, and Solana versus XRP and all, you know, and you got every chain like, uh, or the assumption that every chain is competing for dominance, right? That there's been a real tribal energy, um, behind that that's kept communities kind of siloed from each other. In ways that honestly I don't think serves anyone. And what this integration— what I love about it is it represents something totally different from that. It's two of the largest ecosystems in crypto recognizing that they don't need to compete for the same users when they can actually serve different functions and connect to each other, right? So a lot of the— you got to figure out what these technologies do well. You know, the XRP Ledger— we got— we, we already know this— the XRP Ledger does institutional cross-border payments and settlement better than anything else in the world, okay? And let me just tell you something, because just like even when somebody says supply shock, there's never not going to be a time that XRP is not needed. Okay, so let me just say this: the price will always go up in the future because it's always needed. It's always going to be needed. When is it not going to be needed? Like, um, I don't, I don't understand some people who can't understand the technology of— or, well, I do understand. They just have not studied. They have not educated themselves to the degree that other people have. I just don't think, think that they have researched enough. But XRP, nothing is better, okay, in institutional, institutional cross— it got to get all of it right— institutional cross-border payments and settlement. Nobody does it better. That's its lane. That's what it's built for. If you see a need there then it will be utilized. Okay, and that is what the Japanese banks are proving even in the same week, right? That's what, uh, Société Générale put, um, their regulated stablecoin on, uh, and I'll talk more about that later. Um, 160-year-old bank, y'all, it's so much happening, it's, it's too much to keep up with. Now Solana does high-speed retail DeFi. Fast, cheap transactions for everyday users interacting with decentralized applications. That is their lane. They do it well. Wrapped XRP connects to those two lanes. XRP holders can now access Solana's DeFi without selling. I just told you guys it's in the buy. So when you buy the native, if you buy the spot coin, you have more options. This is always my case between ETFs and the spot coin. Nothing against ETFs. You can borrow against your brokerage account, but you'll have more options when you have the actual coin. Okay, so you can participate in Solana's DeFi without selling your native XRP. And Solana users now have access to what? XRP liquidity. Uh-oh. Again, supply-demand, the, the story is— and this, it's not about a timeline, but the story is going to move forward, right? Two ecosystems, two different strengths, one bridge connecting them. So this is another infrastructure move. And remember, $100 million have already moved into this structure. So it tells you that the people with real capital to deploy has agreed on this. What's up from Angola? I appreciate this. Big hug and respect to you as well, Robert. Um, just looking at some more of you guys' comments. Um, XRP goes global use burns to shortage of XRP. XRP price needs to be much, much higher to be effective, less coins to be used. And that is the truth. Um, in order for it to be used the way it's supposed to be used, um then, um, it has to go to higher prices. And I'm just looking through some of the comments. Korea too. I just did a video on this, man. Y'all listen, let's talk about that. Korea racketing. I mean, come on, it don't even end. Thank you so much, William. I appreciate this. Another, a great video. Thank you. What's your thoughts on staking, uh, Solana on the Ledger? Um, I have— I don't, I don't have a problem with that. Um, I think that you know, you have Solana and ETH that can be staked to make passive income, and people are doing it. That's how they're making passive income. So, um, I've been staking Solana and Ethereum for quite some time, and I always get notifications like, you've earned this money, you've earned that money, just for doing nothing, you know. So, uh, I, I like it, I like it. Oh, if you want to make passive income. And so there's a, there's a strategy that some people are making Remember Tom Lee? He has a lot of Ethereum. So while he had a different strategy than MicroStrategy— interesting, the MicroStrategy name is strategy, but it didn't seem like much strategy was there when he was just buying. And you know, anyway, another, another story. But Tom Lee, when he was down in the dumps with Ethereum— well, you know, and everybody was, BMNR, Ethereum, you know, because of the bear market, okay? But the good thing that helped Tom Lee survive is that he was staking Ethereum and making millions of dollars every single day. So it was a great move if you have, um, you know, a digital asset that you can make money off of it whether it's up or down. Like, even if it's in a bear market, if you bought it, you know, you're still making passive income off of it. And that's exactly what, uh, he was doing. So, um, thank you so much. Do you think XRP will be repriced? Absolutely. I think every asset will be repriced, including gold and silver. All digital assets are with use case and institutional adoption at some point will be repriced. It will all— the, the pricing always comes back to the fundamentals, the foundation of the value of that particular asset. And by it being able to be tokenized, like by every asset being able to be tokenized, that changes the game because now you can trade value with your assets and it hedges you from the inflation because inflation makes the price of goods and services go up, but it also will make the prices of assets go up, especially when you're injecting money into the system, which is where they're going to end up at, at the end of the day. However, if you— it's, it's interesting because when you sell your assets, now you're selling into a, a deflationary currency called the dollar for most people. And, um, and now that it's almost like if you go into a store and you're buying groceries with, um, Amazon on the, on the ledger or on the blockchain, because you're able to tokenize your value and you're exchanging value for value, like you're going to get more products and services and goods, uh, because if the products and services and goods are inflated, again, your assets are as well. But if you were to sell them and now you got a deflationary dollar, it's going to take more dollars to get the same amount of foods and services and products. And you know what I mean? So this is why you're not going to get ahead unless you— for the, the period of inflation and the debasement of the dollar, you're not going to get ahead if you don't own assets at some point. To where things are going, they're going to inject money in the system. It's just going to be what it is.. And, uh, but at some point all of it will reprice, um, and, and snap to, to the value of it. Okay, so, but if you're thinking about selling it, you— we just got to think differently. Like, there's nothing wrong with selling, but if that's your only strategy, you're selling now into a deflationary— into a debate— you're selling into a devalued currency now when you have the asset that is going to be inflated with inflation. So, you know, I'll talk a little bit more about that. This is just understanding how money moves and what your options are as you own assets. You better be getting you some real money, guys. Like, and, and, and money and cash is okay, I, I, you know, for the opportunities. You got to know what they're for, but just understand where money is not pegged to anything. The oil, the, the petrodollar is being challenged as we speak. So money is backed by debt. Like, you're, you're buying into a system full of debt. Does that make any sense? Like, you know, it's, it's not going to work in the end. You, you have to— we have to, um— I'm trying to build a case for where digital currency is even going so you can know what things you should be investing in. Um, thank you so much. Thank you for always dropping, Jewel. Thank you, Jermaine. I appreciate you. Um, I'm just making sure I didn't miss any of, uh, the Super Chats. Um, is this a Super Chat? I'm not sure. Um, I was trying to look at the different Super Chats. Uh, I'm going through. All right, I want to say this. Um, is over normal mindset. Yeah, average minds won't get tokenization. Oh, got it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. And you know what, I'll do a video on this because a lot of people still say, I don't quite understand what the tokenization process is. And I get it, um, it's something that I have to keep revisiting. And, um, that's definitely what I'm going to talk about, um, I'm going to talk a little bit more about it, and I'll, and I'll explain it in a way that, you know, I've said it before, but I'll explain it a little bit more so that you can understand what that means for moving value when, um, when everything winds up on, on the, you know, on the blockchain, and how you can, you don't, you know, you can move money more easily if it's on the blockchain because it is tokenized and it's pegged for like you know, whatever the value of that asset is could be pegged to 1 token equal $1 or whatever, however you want to look at it. But, um, again, if it's, if it's locked up in assets and the value goes up, then you, you hold on to the, the value is increasing, okay? So you hold on to that. But if you wind up turning it and selling it for dollars, now it's going to take more of your dollars because as the inflation goes up, it's going to require more money to pay for that particular asset. So, um, you know, which one do you want? Do you want something that's deflationary that's going to take more of it to get the same value, or do you want the actual asset that's actually moving up in value? Um, so we got to understand it a little bit more and how tokenization does change the game. But, uh, but I'll, I'll explain that a little bit more. Um, yeah, yeah, Rob, I believe it. Accumulate and tell nobody. Yeah, accumulate and tell nobody, you know what I mean? Load up. Um, and then yes, demand also. So that we, we have these different things that push the price up. Demand will push the price up, right? So even think about this week. I want you to zoom out for a second because I heard a few people, uh, mention Korea, um, and the Rakuten. You know, the Solana post is one thing that happened. Let me just show you what happened so you can get an understanding of all that happened in this week. Okay, Japanese banks, remember, stood up at a conference, Tokyo 2026, and presented live settlement. And I've mentioned this, but I just want you to get a picture of what happened this week. And they showed data of proving that XRP settles cross-border payments 60% cheaper than SWIFT in under 4 seconds. Live data that they've been running and testing. Okay, this is not a mock-up or anything. Rakuten made XRP spendable for 44 million consumers at over 5 million merchants. Like, they're Amazon but bigger. 5 million merchants start— that started April 15th. Okay, that was again this week, um, it's the 18th. Uh, Société Générale is a 160-year-old French bank that deployed its regulated euro stablecoin on the XRP Ledger. Look it up. South Korea, somebody just mentioned, piloted its first ever real-time tokenized government bond settled on Ripple's infrastructure. Swiss institutions moved $84 million into XRP ETPs. Okay, that's like the ETFs in one single week. And wrapped XRP went live on Solana with $100 million already behind it. Now I just named about 6 things that happened in 7 days with multiple countries, multiple layers of the financial system, and multiple use cases, right? And then on top of that, I didn't even name this, uh, the ETF data came out, okay? The ETF data— XRP's spot ETF recorded 17— a little over $17 million in net inflows on April 15th alone, the highest single-day figure since, um, back in February. And the 2-day run of April 14th and April 15th was the strongest back-to-back inflow since January. Total cumulative inflows are now sitting at around $1.2 billion. AUM crossed back above $1 billion— that's assets under management. Institutional money is coming back in at the exact moment the ecosystem is expanding across multiple fronts all at once. Now I need you to think about this, okay? Just think about this, because when you're looking at 6 months of we've been moving sideways, and y'all know who complaining, right? Retail is complaining about the prices ain't going nowhere, running sideways for 6 months. But what story are you telling yourself when it runs sideways? It's not running, it's not doing what I wanted to do in the time that I wanted to do it in. Because there's a lot of people that's still using the price as their report card? How do you use the price as your report card with all of this happening? How are you still looking at the price as to what the value of this asset is, right? It doesn't make any sense. Like, so if price is flat, then nothing's happening? I just told you 6 things that happened in 7 days. How can you still say nothing is happening? Are you saying that because the price isn't up yet that the thesis is weakening? Well, I beg to— I beg to differ. Not with all the stuff that I'm talking about with these different countries, Japan and Korea and, and, uh, and the UK and all— no, I beg to differ. I heard a guy that was dogging XRP saying that it was a marketing scheme, right? Um, And so it's a marketing scheme. So all of these countries, the 160-year-old bank, and all, all of these large institutions with billions and trillions of dollars, they fail for a marketing scheme, and you the one that got the, uh, the only one who haven't failed for it, you got the answer, and they didn't have the answer? Like, I, I'm not understanding it. So they all fell for the okie-doke, and you the one person with your little money in your little room under your little cushion, you figured it out and they didn't figure it out. So you in rooms that they not in, you having conversations that they not having, you know something that their compliance teams don't understand, you know stuff that Fannie Mae don't understand, and you know stuff that the 401s and retirement and Charles Schwab— because I haven't even gotten to that right? I got— I think I got another video on that, that they got a waitlist. So you done figured it out, and so you might need to call the CEO of Charles Schwab and tell them that you got the answers, okay? That you more intelligent than all of these people. I don't think people really understand what's happening, right? So, um, but I think the reason why I want to come out and keep sharing the information— I don't have to tell you nothing. All I gotta tell you is, here's what happened again this week, y'all. Here's another thing that happened 2 days later. Here's another country that done got on board. Here's another this many million on the XRP ledger. Like, I, I don't even have to like push it. I'm just telling you what's happening at this point. I'm just giving you the news and you can do what you want with it, right? But these kind of weeks should permanently retire that way of thinking, okay? And it's not to say again, we don't need the supply-demand shock and stuff, but that takes time to accumulate. I'm just showing you the direction of the demand. At some point, it will come to a point. It will come to a turning point. All right. But what you need to remember is why people are always the price, the price, the price. I get it. But guess what? You got more time to accumulate. What a blessing. What a blessing. Because you don't have millions and trillions and billions of dollars right now to just invest it all and be good, you know. You need time. Why? Because you got a paycheck coming next week. You got a paycheck coming next month. You don't have all your money coming right now, because if you did, you wouldn't be in this game. You wouldn't be trying to— you'd be good and set. So we need time because what we make money, we get cash flow, we do, and then we reroute that cash flow and we build our position and we stay focused and we build our character and we build our patience along the way and we get our strategy together, we get our tax strategy together, we keep learning, we keep getting educated, we keep learning about money, we keep understanding where the financial system is going and how the dollar debasement is creeping in. We look at the economy, we look at what happened and what's happening with oil, we look at the historical patterns And we get more intelligent, more financially intelligent as time go on. You know why? Because you probably not ready for to get a, a, a massive amount of wealth right now. You haven't grown yet. You, you, you— there's still growth there. There's still things about money that we don't know that we're learning, right? So what this gives us is opportunity. It gives us time to develop, to understand the transition. It gives us time to get ahead of it because they've been planning this for 20, 30, 40 years, y'all. They've been planning this for a long time. So it gives us time to catch up, okay? Like, aha, okay, I'm figuring this out. Oh, I'm looking at that, uh, that point. Okay, I'm seeing that signal here and that signal there. Because listen, if this would have happened a year ago, if XRP would have went to the moon a year ago, I think that more people would have blew it if if that happened last year, then what will— then the people that will blow it as when it happens, okay, I know a lot of people still gonna blow it, but I think more would have blew it last year. Why? They're not educated. They don't have— they haven't developed any patience. Their nervous system is all over the place. They full of FOMO. They full of anxiety. Nervous system regulation is just not where it needs to be. They're not stabilizing their emotional— don't— in their emotions. Don't have emotional intelligence. Their amygdala is still making decisions based off of you know, trying to survive in scarcity and protective mode. They haven't used the executive part of their brain to make leadership decisions in their life, to look at their framework and say, hmm, I need to put a foundation here, I need to get this in place, I need to get my LLC, I need to protect myself from my assets so that I don't have creditors coming after me, I need to get my trust in alignment. I don't even know the difference between a revocable or irrevocable trust. All I know is what somebody done said. I don't know it for myself. I don't even know what the economy is looking like. I have no idea of what money really is. I still think money is a, a, the piece of paper that they, they throw in your face. That's not money, and most people don't even know it. So God is protecting us, he really is, and he has given us, I think, a little extra leisure room to learn and to grow along with this. Okay, and so accumulate. You have time to grow and to learn about money and to accumulate. Everything that happened this week, the Japanese— or in the last week, I would say— the Japanese bank data, Rakuten, Société Générale, South Korea, the Swiss flows, the Solana integration, the ETF inflow revival— none of it required the Clarity Act to pass first. None of it required the Fed to cut rates. None of it required the Iran situation to resolve. None of it required any of the macro headwinds that have been weighing on the price to change. It all happened anyway in the background while the price is still flat and moving sideways. Imagine what the heck is going to happen when all the ducks are in order. When the rate cuts come, when they start injecting money into the system, when the Clarity Act— can you, um, when the demand continues to rise and rise and rise and institutional adoption continues to go and go, imagine what this is going to look like. Wake up, wake up now. Like and subscribe. Let me, uh, did y'all hit that like button? Yeah, I'm just trying to, uh, share with you guys The good news. Let me, uh, let me— I missed a Super Chat. Let me go back up. I gotta go back up. I'm just trying to share with you guys so y'all can stabilize for the food. Uh, thank you so much, William. I do not know too much about, uh, staking. Is there any risk I should be concerned about? I was thinking about staking Solana. It has a good APY. Yeah, I mean, a lot of people do a lot of staking. Anytime you stake or you know, lend your, um, digital, uh, assets out to like a dark pool or something, you know, you are, you are letting it participate, um, in, in a way that you can get that passive income. So there's risk with it for sure, you know, there is risk. I can't say there isn't. Even when you wrap your XRP, whether it's on a Flare network, you are participating. But at some point everybody's going to want to participate in yield, so you got to trust somebody. So there is a little bit of risk involved for sure. Um, but, uh, you know, just, um, don't stake more than you can. Um, it just depends on your position size. Like, most people aren't necessarily staking 100% of it. They have a position. Um, and they're, you know, some people don't mind because it's like, hey, I'm making passive income off of this. Why am I just letting my digital assets sit and, uh, and, and not work? Um, so I believe that It's good to put legs to your digital assets and allow it to work, um, in what— and it's, it's so interesting because, you know, it's the same as having dividend stocks. You know, some stocks don't work in the way where you can get passive income off of it, and some stocks do. And so I believe in kind of like diversifying, uh, the two, where you have some where you— they just appreciate and they're working in your favor because they're— there's levels of asymmetry and growth to it. And then you have your other side of things where, you know, you're being incentivized for basically, you know, holding this, um, well, I would say stock because I'm comparing it to dividends, but, um, holding and lending out this, uh, your, your digital assets. So I think if you have a game plan for that, that requires both, um, at the end of the day, it's not about like one, you know, one digital asset doing one thing. It's about your entire structure and what you're kind of building around. And we know that we have to hedge ourselves, right? So Um, we use strategies that, you know, if something were to go wrong, that you're still, you're still good, you know what I mean? So, uh, it's, it's, it's getting an entire game plan surrounded around that. So I think, uh, for one person, maybe staking, uh, you know, their assets may be a huge risk, um, just depending on their entire portfolio. And to another person, um, it makes perfect sense because of the strat, the entire game plan that they they're looking at. So it's like not one individual independent decision that, that you're making with just one asset. It's looking at your entire structure and seeing does it fit in and are you safeguarded and are you hedging your risk and protecting yourself, um, somewhere else. Um, so if you're going risky in one area, then you have to be off risk in another area. Just like I do a lot of ETFs in the stock market, I've been dollar cost averaging. I've never stopped buying ETFs, by the way, you guys. It doesn't matter if the stock market is high, down Again, I buy more when it's down, and you can just look at the 52-week average. If anything's creeping back to the low of the 52-week average, I go in a little bit heavier. Anything under the 200 EMA, I go in a little bit heavier. Anytime we're in a recession, a correction, a pullback, um, I go in heavy. A crash, you can load up. Um, so yeah, though, there, there's strategies, um, that, that we all take, and it just, like I said, it just depends on your whole strategy. I just told you guys a risk that I took, and, uh, and I was willing to lose all of it. But I have safe plays like ETS too, um, and thank God for that. $300— the stock moved from like $7, $6, $7 all the way up to almost $40 in 2 weeks. Insane. It takes sometimes a couple of years for a move like that, um, sometimes 5, 5+ years. It was crazy. Uh, anyway, I was on the blessed side of that, so I was like, up time to take a little profit. So I— and I roll that money over into what? ETFs. Okay, something safer. So I— so also the game plan includes when you make that passive income, what are you doing with it? Okay, what are you doing with it? That, that's also important. I'm not gonna get to, um, all of it. Thank you so much, Purple Rain. Yesterday was a nice surprise on XRP/SHX, just a little crack makes me, uh, thankful for the iTrust Roth and PCA. Yes, ongoing learning and DCA mandatory. Let the noise hang and our investment prevail. I love this. This is such an intelligent post that you put here, and thank you for sharing this with us and the Super Chat. And you are absolutely right. And actually, for you guys who don't pay attention to SHX, SHX will hit a 3-month low and then will hit a 3-month high. You can swing trade SHX too and make some good money. Okay, I'm long-term for SHX, but you can make— if you know what you're doing and you know how to read charts and all of that, don't get You know, I'm not— hey, don't listen to nothing I say concerning your financial, uh, moves that you make. Um, nothing I say is financial advice, it's for educational purposes only. But as for me in my house, uh, SHX can also make some good moves in the short term. So just, uh, yeah, FYI. And speculative assets can make good moves. Again, you just gotta hedge yourself and make sure you put stop losses and stuff like that. Um, I do go on, um, you know, a lot of, uh, risky plays, but I hedge myself. Thank you so much, I appreciate this. And listen, like, I mean, we are, you know, for you guys, and, um, uh, let's see, um, Purple Rain just mentioned something about, um, the iTrust Capital, you know. So I did want to say something about that because just even looking at everything that's going on this week, from the Japanese banks to Solana to the inflows and ETFs and all of that, they all point to same thing, which is that XRP is expanding. So there's more use cases, more ecosystem, more institutional infrastructure built around it. So when an asset expands like this, um, obviously the question isn't about if it's going to reflect value. It is at some point. We don't have the timeline, but it will, right? And so you have to understand, listen, what do— what does my foundation look like, okay, when it does? So most people are holding XRP right now, and they will get hit with unexpected taxes when they sell, or whatever their game plan is, you know, to take profit and things like that. They will get hit with unexpected taxes, trust me. And they have not planned for it, trust me. And, um, they haven't— you know, when I just talked about your game plan, like having all your pieces in order, like, do you have, you know, at least one account where you don't have to worry about taxes, where the appreciation is going to, you know, explode whenever in its own right timing, and you don't have to pay anything back to the government, you know. Do you have an account like that that's part of your entire structure and game plan? I do. I hold mine inside, um, just like Purple Rain said, I hold mine inside a Roth IRA as well with iTrust Capital, okay, because I'm being very intentional on the front side of the move. So many people are so reactionary, they do things after the fact. Oh, I can't, I can't wait to explain to y'all how much money moves into these digital assets when they go to all-time highs. You gonna see the floodgates open up and they're gonna push it up even more to parabolical, um, placements. I mean, that's what people do. It's the weirdest thing. It's like, it's like when silver and gold was at all-time highs, now you got people asking, should I buy silver and gold? But then when you get the pullback People are not— they're asking, should I sell my silver and gold? Is it gonna go down lower? Now you just asked, should you buy when it was at all-time highs? Now you're asking, should you sell when it's at all-time lows? I'm telling you guys, most people got this so backwards. It's an emotional issue, right? But anyway, I am being very intentional on the front side of the moves, not being like intentional before the noise, before all of the stuff. Everybody else is waiting on the noise, the price, and all of this other stuff. No, This is the time where you get your game in order all the way, okay? This is what smart investors do. That's why you're seeing institutions slide on up in there, because it's boring. People are tired, man. I read a comment the other day that said, um, so the person who was saying the XRP is a scam, they was like, you're right, I got a lot of XRP, I'm about to sell, this is ridiculous. It's a scam. It hasn't moved anywhere in the last yada yada year or whatever. I was like, oh Jesus, okay. Um, so just like that, just like that, you gonna listen to somebody who says that it's a scam and you just gonna go sell your XRP? You're not gonna go and figure out what's going on with the liquidity or do any type of research or find out what institutions are doing, who are in rooms that you will never get a part to be a part of. You're just gonna listen to something like that. Is— if that's not emotional, I don't know what is. And so, and it— and you could tell, like, the, the sentiment is— was just like, you're right, I'm, I'm not— you know, I'm so glad I got rid of every last dime of mine. You know, I was like, man, these people gonna be crying. They gonna fall on their faces. They gonna fall on their faces and cry. They gonna wish they can go into a a time machine and go back in time. So, uh, I'm sorry, I just gotta make light of it. I gotta laugh. Um, but anyway, build a structure that protects you, um, and protects what you're building, okay? And build it before the move and not after. There's a link in the description for $100 for anyone who wants to, um, start that process. Um, and then of course you take that $100 and you do invest it in assets. But be intentional, because I'm telling you, man, that, that account is gonna look brilliant by the time it's time to cash out and not to have to pay anybody. I can do so much with that. Um, I already got plans, um, and some of it involves my kids and my grandkids. And so I'm looking forward to that. And then also, of course, if anybody has more questions, you know, what it means for your specific situation, your game plan— I don't know where to start, I don't know what to do, I don't know how to organize, I don't know what position size, what I should do with taxes, what about trust and all of this— Um, that's what my clarity calls are for. That's what they're built for, to give you clarity around that and an actual game plan. And also, that is what my community is for, is for that accountability, that coaching, that ongoing help that you need, um, to structure things. I will say things will be changing in April. Um, I'm work— I actually got a meeting with my team after I get off here, and so I'm making a lot of changes. The price will change, uh, the demand has changed, and y'all know when the demand is there, what happens? Things reprice. That's exactly what's gonna happen with the assets. But the link is in the description. Uh, for that. Um, let me make sure I didn't, uh, miss any. I hope you guys are having a beautiful Saturday. My daughter went to prom yesterday, so it was so amazing, and she had the most handsome date that I have ever seen in my entire life, y'all. This man came in— her date came in— I was like, oh my goodness, this man is everything. And you want to know who that man was? It was her brother. Yes, her brother took her to prom, and what a beautiful moment that was to see my baby getting, uh, issued to prom with her little, uh, brother. I mean, he don't look little. He, he's 6 feet, you know, tall and everything. He's a sophomore, so she's, uh, this is her last year, and she was gonna go with her friends and stuff, but, uh, we thought it would be like a really beautiful idea. Her godparents thought it would be a really beautiful idea. Why don't you take, take your sister to prom, you know? And he, um, they know, they know the same people, um, because, uh, it's, it's all in the same district and everything. So they had a beautiful time. It was— we took beautiful pictures. I'll have to post some of those. Um, so recovering from that, I was up super late. Of course you guys would know that. Uh, American Caver, hey, what's going on? Good to see you. I'm still buying XRP and thank you for this, and, um, and have reached a personal milestone. Yes, I'm staying plugged in and looking forward to reaching my ultimate goal. And I love that, I love that you have a goal. It's so good to make goals for ourselves, right? It's about us developing in the process. If when you reach that goal, you become a different person. Same person who started the goal is not the same person who finishes the goal, right? So that experience and that process is more refreshing than the actual goal in and of itself, right? So, uh, everybody, thank you so much for this and for sharing this. Get some goals, you know, because it's, it's, it's the process, y'all. Even in all of this that we speak about, it's the entire process that we have to enjoy. Isn't this such a joyful time, like, to be alive, to see everything that's happening? So much stuff that's happening, it's crazy. Um, but it's such a joyful time to be alive. I just love this entire journey, um, in our financial freedom. Oh my God, we're gonna have so many stories of the journey, right? The destination comes and it's like, okay, that's, that's it, it happened, or whatever. But it's the experience and the stories that you tell is going to be about the entire process. Like, man, this started happening, that started happening, and you'll be able to talk about it. Thank you so much, Benjamin. Preach, Doc, this information will be life-changing for those who will receive it. I appreciate that, and thank you so much. Um, you guys are always kind. Um, you all, you guys are always so kind to me. And I'm making sure I didn't miss any super, uh, super chats. Uh, but yeah, it's been a great, uh, this has been a great, um, a great weekend, um, a great week. Uh, thank you so much. Yeah, my little, my little boy is so handsome. They just look so beautiful together. Uh, So, uh, she did go out with one of her friends after, after it just wound up being a little too late. She— there was a guy, um, who was gonna go to prom, and they're, they're good friends, and, um, but it was a little too late to organize things, and we had already made plans. So, um, after, after he escorted her to prom, uh, she, she ditched him, and he came back home, and she went out, uh, with her, uh, friend. So she had a great night, and, you know, they, they had, they had great fun. Y'all know I was up till she got home. I was like, I got to hear about everything. So And it was just a beautiful day. It was a beautiful night for them. And so, uh, but thank you so much. Uh, thank you also. And then, yeah, um, yeah, so some breaking news more also, and I'll talk a little again, a little bit more about what's going on with Iran and, um, just all the up and down. And man, you, you, you know, one minute this and ceasefire that, and now they, you know, Lebanon and they, uh, Israel attack. I mean, it's just so much happening. So we'll get some more information. Y'all know Sunday nights be real spicy. Y'all, y'all pay attention to that. Sunday nights get real spicy. When it comes to geopolitical events. So I'm always looking at Sunday night, what's going on. But I'll be back Monday to talk a little bit more about what's happening. I'll be on with my members.
