$XRP Respected market analyst Egrag Crypto has delivered another reminder to XRP holders that the journey is only beginning. In a post on X, he shared a candid personal experience that reveals how little the broader public still understands about the cryptocurrency landscape.
“Yesterday I was having beer with a couple of old friends… and I was waiting to hear the words like XRP, HBAR, XLM, VET, FIL, DOT, DAG, XDC, VELO, VRA …. And so on, but NADA. NOTHING. Trust me, we are still early,” he wrote.
✨Bitcoin and Ethereum Still Dominate the Conversation
Egrag explained that during the gathering, his friends — working across industries such as furniture, IT in education, and FMCG trading — spoke only about Bitcoin and Ethereum. They regretted not buying Bitcoin when it was $300 or $3,000, and one mentioned reading a prediction that Ethereum could climb to $30,000. Yet not a single person mentioned XRP or any other altcoin. As Egrag emphasized, “NADA. NOTHING.”

This scenario mirrors what surveys have shown for years: public recognition of crypto remains narrowly focused. Bitcoin is almost universally known, Ethereum is familiar to a smaller but significant group, and most other digital assets, regardless of their institutional use cases or technological promise, rarely enter mainstream conversations.
✨Community Response: Mr. Spock and Egrag Align
Egrag’s anecdote sparked discussion across the XRP community. Commenting on the post, fellow analyst Mr. Spock observed:
“Most people barely know what SWIFT is. Most people associate crypto with Bitcoin or Ethereum; they’ve often never heard of the other cryptocurrencies, or they seem uninterested because of their ‘low’ prices. Most people won’t ask about XRP & Co. until the prices are too high, because people only value supposedly expensive things.”
Egrag immediately supported the point, responding: “100% I totally agree with you.” Their exchange underscores a shared conviction that mass recognition of XRP and other utility-driven assets will only arrive later, when prices have already climbed significantly.
✨Why “We Are Still Early” Rings True
Market data strengthens Egrag’s claim. XRP currently trades near $2.80, supported by a market capitalization of more than $160 billion. Despite its size and liquidity, it remains overlooked outside crypto circles. This gap between real-world scale and public awareness suggests there is still ample room for growth — the essence of being “early.”
Egrag’s credibility also stems from his consistent technical analysis, where he lays out Fibonacci targets, dominance charts, and structured profit-taking strategies. By blending personal anecdotes with data-driven market insights, he highlights both the sentiment and the strategy that long-term XRP holders should keep in mind.
Egrag Crypto’s simple story — a night out with friends where XRP and other major altcoins never entered the discussion — serves as proof of his message: “Trust me, we are still early.” While Bitcoin and Ethereum dominate mainstream chatter, projects like XRP remain largely undiscovered by the wider public. For investors, the takeaway is clear: mass adoption has not yet begun, and the biggest opportunities lie ahead.
