XRP News: Expert Edoardo Farina Says Selling at $3+ Is a Huge Mistake

XRP has been one of the most-watched cryptocurrencies in recent months, gaining strong momentum since late 2024. While some investors sold their holdings after XRP reached the $3 mark in January 2025, market experts believe this decision could be costly. Edoardo Farina, founder of Alpha Lions Academy, has warned that selling at these levels could be “one of the greatest financial mistakes in history.”

$XRP haters will buy in because the chart looks bullish, only to sell at $3 or near the all-time high. This will go down as one of the greatest financial mistakes in history, as a supply shock will prevent them from re-entering the markets.

XRP’s Market Rally and Changing Sentiment

XRP noted the highest growth in value in November 2024 after the U.S. presidential election at 283%. This is because some analysts and investors changed their position regarding the crypto asset due to the strong performance recorded in the market.

Some of the notable individuals who shifted their stance were billionaire Mike Novogratz. While initially dismissing it, he later admitted that there was a dedicated community supporting this asset. Another market commentator, Raoul Pal, publicly acknowledged that he had underestimated the prospects of XRP, switching to the opposite side.

Dear $XRP Jedi Warriors…

You were right, I was wrong. Well done! Dinosaurs still roam the earth 😉

I just want everyone to make $$ and you guys have walked through hell to get here. I still own some XRP from the delisting but you guys/girls deserve everything.

As XRP rose even higher more traders were drawn in hoping to benefit from the rising prices. However, some investors started to pump out their stakes when the price was at $3 because of the stock’s future decrease in value mentally. In the view of Farina, this could potentially deprive people of their chances in the future.

Farina Warns of a Supply Shock

Farina believes that XRP is still undervalued and expects its price to rise significantly. He has suggested that those who sold their XRP holdings around the $3 level might struggle to re-enter the market at favorable prices in the future.

“This will go down as one of the greatest financial mistakes in history,” Farina stated, referring to investors who exited their positions too soon. He compared the situation to Bitcoin’s past growth, asking whether investors would have sold BTC at $500 if they knew it would eventually reach $100,000.

Farina also warned that a supply shock could occur when XRP moves beyond its previous all-time high. If demand rises while supply remains limited, prices could see another strong surge, potentially leaving former investors unable to buy back in at affordable levels.

XRP’s Current Position and Market Outlook

As of the time of writing this, XRP’s price is at $2.35 with a daily trading volume of more than $4.2 billion. Although it dropped minimally by 0.38 % within the last twenty-four hours, the asset holds a market cap of over $136 billion.

Some analysts, including traders like Javon Marks, believe XRP could see another major breakout based on momentum indicators. Marks noted that a similar market pattern previously resulted in a 470% price surge, suggesting the potential for another strong rally.

With continued interest from institutional and retail investors, market observers are closely watching whether XRP can sustain its upward trend. Many believe that those who sold at $3 might regret their decision if the asset reaches new highs in the coming months.
