Crypto Weekly Wrap: Bitcoin Hits $123K, XRP and ETH Unleash Chart-Busting Comebacks

A well‑known commentator in the crypto space has made a bold pitch. According 
to reports, Crypto Bitlord urged every new investor to put all their money 
into XRP. Related Reading: XRP To $13 in 40 Days? Analyst Predicts Explosive 
Final Rally This call comes after XRP surged to seven‑year highs above $3 and 
hit a peak of $3.60. The token posted a 21% gain in a single week, outpacing 
even Bitcoin’s record run. Eye‑Popping Returns Fuel Bold Call Bitlord pointed 
out that someone who invested $50,000 in XRP at roughly $0.60 last November 
would now hold about $289,000 as prices hover near $3.47. He reminded 
followers how XRP broke above $1 during last year’s rally and then climbed 
beyond the $3 level this summer. This kind of windfall led him to tell new 
market entrants to skip the usual research and “take all your money and go all 
into XRP.” If you’re new to crypto, don’t even think or question it. Take all 
your money and go all into $XRP — Crypto Bitlord (@crypto_bitlord7) July 18, 
2025 Bitlord’s track record on XRP has had its twists. In mid‑2023, he touted 
the token when it traded around $0.50–$0.60, only to walk back those comments 
the following July. Some saw his pullback as sarcastic, since prices soon 
climbed past his earlier targets. Based on charts, he has also laid out what 
he thinks XRP could achieve—calling for dramatic moves that few other analysts 
dare to mention. Critics And Risks Remain Despite the rally, the altcoin still 
faces obstacles. Its connection to Ripple and the ongoing US Securities and 
Exchange Commission legal showdown create uncertainty. A court decision could 
go either way, and any ruling against Ripple might send the price sharply 
lower. Other analysts have echoed bullish views, encouraging investors to 
stack at least 10,000 XRP tokens. They said he won’t sell until XRP reaches 
$100. That price would value a 10,000‑token stash at $1 million. For many, 
that goal sounds distant. But analysts point to XRP’s history: it once traded 
for $0.002, making skeptics eat their words when it hit $1. Sky‑High Targets 
Or Pipe Dream? Bitlord has even floated a $10 target—an increase of about 180% 
from today’s levels. He believes some critics will end up “in mental 
institutions” if XRP ever tops that mark. Related Reading: XRP Becomes Top 3 
Crypto After ProShares ETF Approval, Can It Flip ETH? He’s gone further, 
claiming the once‑joked $1,000 target is now within reach. Hitting $1,000 
would push XRP’s market cap into the trillions, dwarfing most assets on the 
market today. As the market buzzes, investors face a choice. Some are drawn to 
XRP’s meteoric rise and rosy forecasts. Others warn against betting everything 
on a single crypto token. The numbers show a balanced approach—dividing funds 
across several coins and setting clear exit points—might help guard against 
the next big swing. For now, XRP remains one of the most talked‑about tokens 
in the crypto world. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView
