Critic says no annual holding fees are why he keeps buying XRP and bitcoin

XRP advocate and industry critic Coach JV says he keeps buying bitcoin and XRP because, unlike homes or cars, they do not carry recurring annual costs simply for being held. He said investors should consider long-term holding costs as well as purchase prices. The article notes XRP can involve costs such as a 1 XRP base reserve to create a self-custody account on the XRP Ledger and network fees for transfers, while custody choices can add expenses.

XRP could rise about 60 percent if it holds $1.50-$1.55 support

An analysis said XRP could post an additional rise of about 60 percent in the short term if it holds the $1.50 to $1.55 range. Market analyst Celal Kucuker cited recent technical moves and outlined an upper band of $2.18 to $2.57. The key, the analysis said, is whether XRP can maintain support above a former resistance zone and remain above a prior downtrend line, rather than any single price target.
