Market Analyst Accuses XRP Of Being The Biggest Crypto Scam, What’s Going On?
Market analyst Ryker has called out XRP as the biggest crypto scam. The analyst alluded to the token’s inflation and how it is currently trading at a high valuation despite supposedly lacking any real utility. Analyst Calls Out XRP As Scam Crypto Project In an X post , Ryker again warned that XRP is the biggest scam he has seen in the crypto market. He described the altcoin that has “absolutely nothing” but just a market cap of around $83 billion and is still subject to inflation. The analyst did not further elaborate on this inflation but suggested it was due to Ripple’s escrow holdings, which are released monthly. Ryker further called out the “XRP team,” indicating that they have inflated the token’s price because of their years of experience in the crypto market and connections with large market whales. Specifically, he alleged that a few years ago, the team hired many celebrities and media outlets to promote the token after pumping it from $0.5 to $3. The market analyst claimed that this mainly occurred in the South Korean market and that many people have lost money due to XRP. He highlighted the “enormous” trading volume on the South Korean crypto exchange Upbit as evidence of XRP’s strong presence in the country. Ryker warned that market participants who continue to listen to these celebrities and buy into XRP will, sooner or later, lose everything. In line with this, he advised market participants to conduct their own research before buying a crypto asset. It is worth noting that Ryker highlighted XRP’s price action while calling the crypto token a scam. Notably, the token is down over 27% year-to-date (YTD), being outperformed by other altcoins such as HYPE and ZEC . XRP Ledger Just Saw One Of Its Largest Growth On-chain analytics platform Santiment revealed that XRP has seen 4,300 new wallets created in the last 24 hours, representing the 4th-largest spike of the year. The platform’s network growth is among the leading signals for identifying price reversals , suggesting the token could soon rebound from its current levels. It is worth noting that a significant part of the growth has come from the RWA adoption on the XRP Ledger . RWA.xyz data shows that the network has led in net flows over the last 30 days, with a positive flow of $1.3 billion. XRPL is well ahead of the second-placed Avalanche, which has a net flow of $500 million over this period. XRP Ledger validator Vet recently highlighted the network’s growth in the RWA sector, adding that the job is not finished and that the next focus should be distribution.

Michaël van de Poppe sets Bitcoin price targets to consider
Crypto trading expert Michaël van de Poppe has provided short-term targets for Bitcoin ( BTC ) to consider as of May 22, 2026. As Bitcoin price consolidates at about $76,000, after its recent rejection around $82,000, Poppe stated that the support level above $75,000 must hold to validate its near-term bull rally. Furthermore, Poppe highlighted that BTC price has consistently closed above its 20-day Moving Average (MA), which has served as a support trendline since early April. BTC/USDT 1-day chart. Source: TradingView With the Bitcoin price having a CME gap around $79,000, this analyst predicted that a rally towards $82,000 could occur in the coming weeks. Moreover, he believes that BTC price could rally to a new local high before encountering significant resistance around its 50-day MA. “If Bitcoin is able to get back towards the highs, which I think we could see most likely in June, we could see a strong run towards $90,000 and the 50-MA as a crucial resistance zone,” Poppe stated . Bitcoin price outlook as spot and leverage traders clash Bitcoin price has been trapped in a horizontal consolidation since April 22, and at the time of publication. Over the past 30 days, BTC price dropped by nearly 3%, trading at approximately $76,770 at press time. BTC/USD 30-day chart.

For instance, Bitcoin’s leverage market has surged over the past 3 months, with derivatives traders leaning bullish, as Finbold reported . On the other hand, the United States spot BTC exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have recorded two consecutive weeks of outflows totaling $2.1 billion, according to data from SoSoValue .

As such, a clear direction could be established once the spot and derivatives traders harmonize their midterm expectations.
