Crypto commentator X Finance Bull has urged XRP holders to look beyond recent price declines, pointing to the cryptocurrency’s previous rally of approximately 66,500% as a reminder of its historical performance.
XRP Traded at Low Prices for Years Before Its Rally
In his post on X, X Finance Bull shared a historical XRP/USD chart from TradingView covering the period between 2014 and 2018. The chart highlights an extended accumulation phase before XRP recorded a substantial price increase.
X Finance Bull’s chart shows XRP trading between $0.005 and $0.01 for roughly 817 days before its price climbed sharply. At the time, the market was much smaller, and the XRP Ledger had not developed to its current level. The chart labels the end of that period as a “Shakeout,” after which XRP rose from around $0.005 to $3.33, a gain of approximately 66,500%.
He also calculated what that move could have meant for an early investor. A $1,000 purchase at $0.005 would have bought 200,000 XRP, worth about $666,000 at $3.33. At $1.30 per token, that same holding would be worth approximately $260,000.
I know what some of you are feeling right now with $XRP and other utility altcoins.
You bought, price kept dropping, and now you’re wondering if you got it wrong. Before fear takes over, look at this chart.

Technology and Adoption Remain Central to His Thesis
X Finance Bull recognized that the recent price action could leave XRP investors questioning their decisions, especially after buying and seeing prices fall or move sideways. He urged them to remember why they bought XRP in the first place and look at how the ecosystem has changed.
The commentator suggested that another market cycle could deliver significant gains if adoption catches up with the developments taking place across the ecosystem. However, he emphasized his personal conviction rather than presenting a future rally as a certainty.
He also stated that he would not abandon an investment thesis he had spent years studying because of a few weeks of unfavorable price action.
XRP Holders Highlight the Risks of Looking Back
Responses to the post reflected differing views on XRP’s prospects. Kdawgruff welcomed the reminder, acknowledging the frustration of holding XRP during a difficult period while stating that he intended to continue holding.
Ken, however, cautioned against using historical charts to predict future performance, noting that past gains do not guarantee similar results in another market cycle.
In response, X Finance Bull agreed that no outcome was guaranteed but maintained that XRP’s historical price movements remained worth examining, adding that the cryptocurrency had surprised investors before.
The exchange highlights the distinction between using past performance to inform an investment thesis and treating it as evidence that another major rally will occur. While X Finance Bull remains confident in XRP’s long-term prospects, future price performance will depend on market conditions and whether adoption translates into sustained demand.
