It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a Bitcoin must be in want of a profit. And so, it appears, that even the most ardent devotees of that esteemed cryptocurrency, the Bitcoin maximalists, are not immune to the allure of a handsome return. Vandell Aljarrah, a gentleman of considerable standing in the cryptocurrency community and co-founder of Black Swan Capitalist, has ventured a most intriguing prediction.
It seems, dear reader, that when XRP attains new heights, those very same Bitcoin maximalists, who have heretofore proclaimed the superiority of their cherished coin, will, with all due haste, divest themselves of their BTC holdings in favour of the aforementioned XRP. “When XRP reaches new ATHs,” Mr. Aljarrah tweeted, with a certain air of world-weariness, “Bitcoin maxis will dump BTC for XRP. I’ve seen this movie before. Classic.”
When XRP reaches new ATHs,
Bitcoin maxis will dump BTC for XRP.
I’ve seen this movie before.
Classic.

One cannot help but be amused by the temerity of Mr. Aljarrah’s assertion, which has, as one might expect, ruffled the feathers of the Bitcoin faithful. “The Maxis are not dumb,” retorted one indignant respondent. “They know when to swap their BTC for other altcoins to make more money.” Another, with equal aplomb, declared the notion “delusional”.
And yet, dear reader, it must be acknowledged that the value of XRP, at a mere $2.14, with a 4.39% decline, does seem to be experiencing a certain… bearish momentum. But, as we all know, the cryptocurrency market is a capricious beast, prone to sudden and inexplicable mood swings. Only time, that great revealer of secrets, will tell if Mr. Aljarrah’s prediction shall prove prophetic or merely a flight of fancy. 🤑
