Levi Rietveld, a finance expert and popular commentator in the digital asset space, recently shared his perspective on how U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest economic proposal could impact the cryptocurrency market—particularly XRP.
In a video post, Rietveld claimed that Trump’s announcement about potentially reintroducing stimulus payments to Americans could become one of the most significant market catalysts since 2020.

Trump’s Stimulus Plan and Its Market Implications
According to Rietveld, Trump intends to put “stimulus back in the hands of every single American,” similar to the direct relief payments distributed during the COVID-19 pandemic. He noted that the last round of stimulus led to explosive gains across the digital asset market.
Rietveld reminded his audience that when the 2020 stimulus measures were implemented, most cryptocurrencies, including XRP, Solana, and BNB, experienced dramatic price increases. He emphasized that this liquidity injection helped XRP achieve nearly 100% gains at the time.
XRP’s Price Potential and Rietveld’s $6 Target
Building on that comparison, Rietveld projected that a similar event under Trump’s current plan could push XRP’s price toward $6 per token. He described this target as a “base case” scenario purely from the expected capital inflow associated with stimulus spending.
In his view, such an economic policy would significantly expand retail investment and could rejuvenate overall market sentiment that has remained relatively cautious in recent months.
Rietveld urged XRP holders to prepare for this potential move, saying that those who are not positioned early enough might regret missing out. His comments were aimed directly at the XRP community, which has long been known for its strong belief in the asset’s long-term potential within the global payments ecosystem.

Community Reaction to Rietveld’s Forecast
The video also attracted several reactions from the broader crypto community. One user, J Berlin, echoed Rietveld’s forecast and stated that $6 was his current “buy ceiling,” indicating he would continue accumulating XRP until it reached that level before holding long-term.
Another user, identified as Mike, expressed even greater optimism. He argued that Rietveld’s $6 target might be too conservative given the number of catalysts currently aligning for the cryptocurrency market.
Mike highlighted the ongoing U.S. government shutdown as a contributing factor, suggesting it could accelerate financial shifts and pressure the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy. He claimed that the resulting “reverse carry trade” would lead to a surge in asset prices, potentially amplifying XRP’s upward momentum beyond Rietveld’s base case projection.
While Rietveld did not delve deeply into macroeconomic mechanisms, his message was clear: renewed stimulus spending could reignite enthusiasm in digital assets, with XRP among the leading beneficiaries. The argument relies heavily on the assumption that additional liquidity entering the economy would once again find its way into risk assets, as occurred in 2020.
