Despite the crypto crash, the speaker stays bullish on institutional adoption by BlackRock and Grayscale over retail hype. He outlines a three-layer portfolio strategy and expresses conviction in XRP, which he believes will never fall below $1 again due to regulatory ties and fundamentals.
Here is exactly why I am still bullish and don't care where the crypto market is going and if it's going down. This is one of the main reasons why I continue to invest, build, and trade in crypto. This is because I have detected a gap between the retail sentiment and the institutional sentiment. Retail people have been busy getting wrecked on meme coins, and it's very depressing. They just look at prices, they don't look at people who are building. They don't look at development activity. They don't look at anything else other than just prices. When the meme coin space has a pullback, all of the retail people really feel it because all of their meme coins go to zero, because that's where meme coins end up, at zero for sure. So much of this industry is centered around Solana's price right now that when Solana pulls back and goes down, all of these retail people feel like it's game over. However, if you look at the institutional sentiment. This means the big boys like BlackRock, all of the investment firms like Grayscale, even the government itself. You will see that they are just increasingly bullish on the crypto space. They're investing, they're building companies, and they're continuing to do stuff no matter what the price does. We're literally watching a shift right now to the crypto market maturing and being more focused on the people who will just continue building. They don't care about the price. And if we just continue building, the prices will reward us. All I can say is keep your eye on the ETFs, keep your eye on the institutions. Don't believe this weird echo chamber of retail investors who are just so depressed because their assets won't go up. Still bullish on every single utility coin I've ever mentioned. Basically, these are the coins that are equipped with the teams that won't quit. Right? A meme coin team isn't even a team. Meme coins are much different than the real crypto projects in the top 100. This is why from the beginning I've told you that the main method to actually doing well in crypto is to become a founder, a trader, and a holder, and then develop a three-layered portfolio. The first layer is long-term investing and holding crypto assets. The second layer is trying to get in early on new technology and new coins coming out. And then third layer is your gambling fund with meme coins. Ultimately, times like this are where the people who take profits into stable assets, stablecoins, or even fiat dollars are thanking themselves. This is the XRP crypto chart. As you can see, we were flatlined for so long and now we're up above $2. My dream for XRP is that we never ever go below $1 ever again. With the new administration and Ripple's ties to this new administration, it could happen. It's been 7 years for me with XRP. I've never given up. I've never sold one dime, and I do not plan to until we break that all-time high. That is the key. We need to break the all-time high. That will show that XRP is built different than all the other dinosaur old coins that have not broke their all-time high. Stuff like Algorand, stuff like HBAR, stuff like Quant. We need to show that we are built different, and in my opinion, XRP is built different. Only morons think that I gave up on XRP when I said I have halted all of my buying because my bag's too big. I don't need anymore. My money's going other places. Bags packed, let's go.
