By the end of this lesson, you’ll have a crystal-clear one-sentence definition of XRP and understand that Ripple ≠ XRP. XRP is the native cryptocurrency of the open XRP Ledger, built for ultra-fast, low-cost payments.

“Buy it. Store it. Don’t get wrecked.” This lesson covers the nuts and bolts of acquiring and securing your XRP. You’ll learn where to buy XRP, how to safely store it, and how to spot common scams. In short: only use reputable platforms, keep keys private, and never fall for too-good-to-be-true airdrops.

Markets can be loud, but this lesson teaches you to tune out hype and focus on real drivers of XRP’s price. You’ll learn about XRP’s fundamental catalysts and how headlines fit in (or don’t). For example, XRP’s price often moves on adoption news or legal clarity. XRP’s price has tracked Ripple’s legal battle – dropping with bad news and surging on wins. The recent court ruling that exchange-traded XRP is not a security had a big impact, as did the official end of appeals in Aug 2025

This lesson is about mindset and practical planning. You’ll learn how to manage your position size, avoid common pitfalls (like over-leverage or chasing hype), and set up a simple personal playbook. The goal is to build confidence so you stick to your plan even when the market goes crazy. For example, a wise approach is to sell part of your stake to lock in gains (“locking a moonbag”) while keeping a sliver just in case.

In this advanced lesson, we step back and consider long-term scenarios for XRP (think toward 2030). We won’t make exact predictions, but we’ll map out what could happen and what it would take. For example, what would need to change for XRP to hit $10, $100, or even $589? We’ll also discuss what could go wrong. The goal is to prepare you to think in probabilities, not hype.
