XRP started in June 2026 at $1.33 and dropped fast. Within days, it hit $1.07, its lowest point of the year. For Zach Humphries, that kind of price action was not a warning. It was an entry signal. Humphries announced his first major XRP purchase in two years, buying at $1.09.
He drew a direct comparison to his previous entry of $0.50 during the bear market of 2023. During that time, XRP was dragged down by the SEC lawsuit, and investor sentiment was near its worst.
I just bought more $XRP for the first time in 2 years. The last time I bought XRP it was at $0.50 and scooping it up at $1.09 feels like a very similar opportunity.

Humphries made clear this was not a reactive buy. He has been watching for a specific setup. When Bitcoin broke below $60,000, he expected XRP to approach $1, and he positioned himself ahead of that move. “XRP under a dollar to me screams opportunity,” he said.
He has capital reserved for further purchases if the price continues to fall, stating he expects a potential 4x to 5x return when market conditions turn bullish. He expects XRP to outperform Bitcoin in a shorter period, which he described as the core goal of any altcoin position. He also bought more Bitcoin on the same day, describing both as long-term conviction plays.
Humphries was direct about his reasoning. His confidence in XRP is not built on a single thesis. He pointed to Ripple’s expansion into stablecoin infrastructure through RLUSD and its push into asset tokenization. He also highlighted its existing partnerships, including involvement with the DTCC and connections to BlackRock, Ondo Finance, and a real estate tokenization deal in the UAE.
For Humphries, these multiple active verticals distinguish XRP from speculative altcoins. He requires evidence of involvement in stablecoins, tokenization, or the agentic economy before committing heavily to any altcoin position.

Humphries acknowledged the possibility of further downside. If Bitcoin falls to $55,000 or $50,000, he expects XRP to dip below $1 and stated he would increase his buying at that level.
He is not attempting to call the exact bottom. His approach is to buy during periods of peak fear and build a position with enough reserves to continue buying if prices drop further. He continues to hold other assets, anticipating strong performance across those positions once market conditions improve.
