In a recent tweet accompanied by a video, crypto commentator CryptoSensei delivered a major warning to XRP holders. He stated that “Selling XRP at $5 might be a fatal mistake”. The commentator argued that if XRP reaches $5, that level should not be viewed as the ceiling but rather a potential springboard to significantly higher valuations. The message centered on the idea that cashing out at an early, arbitrary target risks forfeiting substantially larger gains if the market continues to climb. SELLING #XRP AT $5 MIGHT BE A FATAL MISTAKE!!! $100+ PRICE TARGET pic.twitter.com/0Tt7PXLxnz — CryptoSensei (@Crypt0Senseii) December 3, 2025 Core claims and reasoning CryptoSensei based the message on a simple idea: if XRP can reach $5, it could continue to move far beyond that point, potentially reaching $50, $100, or even higher. The commentator argued that $5 should not be viewed as a meaningful endpoint and described selling at that level as a mistake for anyone expecting significant long-term growth. The point was presented as a caution rather than investment advice, reflecting the commentator’s belief in XRP’s potential upside. A Technical Analyst’s View A parallel view from the technical-analysis side adds further context to this conversation. Charting Guy, a respected technical analyst on X, recently outlined his price structure for XRP. He traced XRP’s move from its $0.38 low in 2023 and labelled it the start of a multi-wave sequence. His analysis places XRP in a wave 5 extension, with a target near $8. While distinct from CryptoSensei’s more expansive long-term projections, this view still reflects an expectation of higher pricing and reinforces the notion that the asset may have room to grow before any major cycle concludes. In the video, CryptoSensei expanded on two connected points. The first is that price milestones are relative, and $5 does not necessarily represent the asset’s full potential in a market that could expand under the right conditions.

CryptoSensei encouraged holders to carefully consider the cost of exiting at one fixed target and suggested that a more measured approach may be necessary for those who aim to benefit from possible future gains. Reassessing Exit Strategies for Long-Term Goals If the message is taken as intended, it urges XRP holders to reconsider rigid sell targets and to plan exits based on personal goals rather than single price points. The video acknowledged that each investor must decide what is right for their own situation, but it framed selling at $5 as a choice that could lead to later regret if higher prices are eventually reached. The more modest $8 technical target, described by Charting Guy, still requires substantial market activity, emphasizing that any long-term appreciation involves variables that remain uncertain.
