“Erik. You need to look at XRP. XRP at $2 is like Bitcoin at $1,000. It’s going to take over SWIFT.”
I’ve told you before about Clipper, the horse trainer at the stable where we keep our pony. When he’s not training horses Clipper likes to spend his spare time positioning himself ahead of the experts in some of finance’s biggest trends. For example, Clipper the horse trainer, acquired a £25,000 holding in Bitcoin pre-2017 and never sold. It must be worth close to $1 million now.
And in 2021 Clipper decided to start buying physical Gold and Silver because Trump, when he was elected again, was going to make the US$ gold backed and gold would go through the roof.
Clipper likes to dispense his financial advice and political predictions over a warm cup of tea amongst the saddles and bridles in the tack room. His recommendations always sound crazy at the time, but then years later I always have to tell him something like “Wow, Clipper you totally called it on xyz…!”
And along with high Bitcoin was going to go, Clipper would always say how XRP would be the payment system of the future. It’s been one of his consistent predictions.
So Clipper’s latest reminder to buy XRP had been nagging me. What if he ends up right again? Like with Bitcoin. I’m really going to look like an idiot. Maybe I should at least do some work on it. Plus, XRP is totally hated, and hasn’t moved like the other crypto’s. It was a contrarian idea, which appealed to me.
After doing some work, I think Clipper the horse trainer may be on to something.
