A member of the XRP community is pushing back against the idea that XRP holders are simply becoming tired of waiting for higher prices.

X user MRCΛULIMΛN argued that part of the frustration comes from unrealistic expectations, with some holders waking up every day expecting an explosive XRP move and becoming disappointed when it does not happen.

His broader message is that XRP should not be viewed only as an asset to trade or hold until a certain price target arrives.

“Learn What You Hold”

In his post, MRCΛULIMΛN argued that many holders spend too much time following XRP price predictions and too little time exploring what can already be built or used on the XRP Ledger.

He said users do not need to be developers to participate.

His examples included launching an online business, selling merchandise for XRP, trading NFTs and using XRPL-based payment tools.

He pointed specifically to MONOLITH, an XRPL-based platform he is associated with, as an example of that approach.

The platform, he said, includes a merchandise store, NFT marketplace, peer-to-peer payments, storefronts and digital “tiles” that users can claim and build around.

Those statements about MONOLITH come from his own description of the project and should be treated as claims from someone involved with the platform.

A Different View of the XRP Debate

Most XRP discussion still revolves around price targets, institutional adoption, regulation and whether the token can revisit previous highs.

MRCΛULIMΛN is arguing for a different way of looking at the asset.

Instead of asking only how high XRP could trade, he wants holders to ask what they can actually do with XRP and XRPL today.

That does not mean price is irrelevant.

For investors, price performance is obviously still important.

But his criticism is aimed at the idea that XRP ownership should consist entirely of waiting for an extreme prediction to come true.

My (Honest) Take

The useful part of his argument is not that every XRP holder needs to build a business.

It is that utility claims are stronger when people can point to products that are actually being used.

If XRPL wants to grow beyond speculation, applications, payments, marketplaces and real user activity are ultimately more meaningful than another $10, $50 or $100 XRP prediction.

For now, his post shows a big tension inside parts of the XRP community.
