Speaking of XRP, the investment return is astonishing—rising from $0.006 in 2013 to $1.84 now. If you invested 1,000 yuan back then, your account would now hold about 307,000 yuan. This is not luck; there is solid backing behind it.

Last August, the lawsuit from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission was settled, with fines much milder than market expectations. The key point is that the court ruled XRP trading on public exchanges does not constitute unlicensed securities. This definitive ruling directly alleviated market concerns about compliance. Following the launch of spot ETFs, capital flooded in, and XRP's upward momentum has continued through 2025.

What's even more interesting is the potential for future growth. Analysts are bullish on XRP reaching $5 by 2030, and their reasoning is not unfounded—Ripple has designed XRP as a "bridge currency" for cross-border remittances, which is a real financial demand. Additionally, Ripple is applying for a U.S. banking license to expand its ecosystem. Once approved, XRP's role as a value carrier within its ecosystem will only become more solid.

Wait, turning 1,000 yuan in 2013 into 300,000? If that's true, I would have been rich long ago, haha. But speaking of which, the SEC case being settled is indeed a big positive, as compliance has always been a concern. Now with the backing of a banking license, XRP is definitely a bit different.

okay so... sec lawsuit settled, xrp gets the greenlight, etf launches, money floods in—i've seen this exact playbook before with bridges tho. reminds me too much of the "liquidity will definitely flow here" promises right before the exploit postmortem.

People who bought in 2013 must be feeling great now. I, on the other hand, bought at the high in 2021 and I'm exhausted.

I understand your logic, but can things really be settled once the lawsuit is over? Will funds flood in as soon as the spot ETF launches? This kind of narrative can be applied to every coin—beware.

People who got in back in 2013 must be feeling great now. I think after the SEC case settles, the fundamentals are indeed much more stable.

Damn, 1,000 yuan back then is now over 300,000. That's why I never sold it off.

Oh my goodness, 1000 yuan in 2013 is now 307,000 yuan. This is truly the real wealth code. Wait, the SEC case settling is indeed a turning point, but I still have some doubts about the $5 target; it might be too optimistic. Ripple applying for a banking license? If that really happens, the potential for XRP would be enormous, but it still seems like we have to wait a few more years. I missed the boat back then and could only watch others get rich quickly. So frustrating. The demand for cross-border remittances is real, but can XRP truly replace SWIFT? That’s still a big question. The upward trend in 2025 shows the market is still buying in, so I choose to keep observing. Is it too late to get on now, or have we already reached the ceiling?

Wow, 307,000? If that's real, I would have become rich long ago... But the SEC's hammer really changed the game rules.

Wow, this 307,000 is just outrageous... Why didn't I get in earlier?
