Crypto analyst labels XRP the ‘biggest scam in cryptocurrency’

Crypto analyst labels XRP the ‘biggest scam in cryptocurrency’

XRP (CRYPTO:XRP) continues to face significant challenges despite a recent legal victory that many hoped would boost its value. 

The resolution of the long-standing SEC-Ripple lawsuit, which culminated in Ripple being ordered to pay $125 million in penalties, was initially seen as a win for the XRP community. 

However, the anticipated price rally following the lawsuit’s conclusion has failed to materialise, leading to frustration among XRP supporters. 

Recently, a crypto market commentator known as "Max Prime" on social media platform X criticised XRP, labeling it the "biggest scam in crypto." 

Max’s criticism stems from XRP's inability to sustain a price rally after the favorable legal outcome. 

Despite a brief surge in value—jumping 26% within hours of the lawsuit's conclusion—XRP’s price quickly reversed and has remained below the $0.60 mark. 

Max mocked XRP enthusiasts, accusing them of overhyping the cryptocurrency’s potential post-lawsuit. 

This criticism has sparked debate within the crypto community. 

While some share Max's skepticism, others argue that XRP’s recent performance is not indicative of a scam but rather a reflection of the broader market's current consolidation phase. 

The entire cryptocurrency market has been experiencing price corrections, with most assets trading within a range over the past week. 

XRP’s passionate community of supporters remains hopeful that the cryptocurrency will perform well once market conditions improve. 

Despite the ongoing negativity from some market participants, XRP continues to hold a substantial following and could still see significant gains in the future. 

As of the latest update, XRP was trading at $0.5666, with its price trajectory closely watched by both critics and supporters alike. 

The broader market’s direction will likely play a crucial role in determining XRP's future performance.
