I would advise anyone with a get-rich-quick mindset to stay away from crypto. In the short term, people with this mindset can lose a lot. The get-rich-quick cohort is too quick to sell. They sell after 2x or 3x to "lock in gains" and then sit on the sidelines for the 20x. And then they buy at the top when the hype is at max volume. Then sell after a 50% drawdown to protect what remains of their capital. However, those with extraordinary patience can do very well. Buy the leaders that are technically sound, with high decentralization, widely accepted with deep liquidity. Then withdraw it offline, out of exchanges, to a hardware wallet. Stop checking the price every five minutes. Maybe once a quarter check the market, read the news, and ensure you remember your pin or seed and that your tokens are still there. Never trade. When it doubles or triples, don't sell. When it drops 30% or 70%, don't sell. Just hold 5 or 10 years. I've never been a fan of the centralized Ripple model, but if I was in your place, I'd examine my motivations. If I need the money now, if I'm looking for a quick buck, then I'd sell to stop the stress. But if I can take a very long-term perspective, then I'd trade what's left for BTC or ETH and salt it away offline until 2026+ and see what happens.
