XRP price is trading sideways alongside most cryptocurrencies in the market today. The coin had been trading above $0.5 until April 21, when a bearish wave pushed it below $0.45 to $0.43. The token has witnessed a slight recovery above $0.46 today.
As a result, crypto enthusiasts fear a further decline in XRP. Notably, a prominent crypto analyst shared a post responding to his friend’s forecast of XRP slumping to $0.10, but Egrag’s response was that technical indicators on XRP price don’t support such a price decline. 
No Technical Indicator Supports Dropping To $0.10, Says Egrag
The ongoing market-wide downturn has caught up with XRP, its price has been gaining momentum over the past few weeks. The coin succumbed to the bearish trend, pushing it to lose its past week’s gain by 9.87%. This downturn has stirred reactions among the crypto community, with people, including Egrag’s friend speculating a drop back to $0.10.

However, Egrag reacting to his friend’s forecast, said it was a wrong call. The analyst shared some technical insights for XRP in response to the friend’s prediction. Egrag noted that XRP’s movements aligned with his predetermined technical indicators like the Fibonacci targets. And no technical indicator or Fibonacci targets support the idea of Ripple’s native coin price correction to $0.10.
Egrag said his friend’s forecast seems more like a personal speculative opinion than an analytic insight. He further noted that while a price correction to $0.10 is possible, the probability is slim and not as low as his friend speculates. Nevertheless, sudden regulatory enforcement could stir up such a price drop for XRP.
Egrag argued that while crypto assets have some immunity against bearish economic events, their prices are still susceptible to unforeseen occurrences. Therefore, any notable XRP price decline to $0.10 would rather be due to a regulatory action instead of mere market forces. 

So, Egrag concluded that a price fall to $0.10 for XRP is technically impossible without unfair regulations. He encouraged the XRP Army to remain steadfast in support of the token as a significant price correction presents a buying opportunity.
XRP Price Outlook
Meanwhile, the XRP community anticipates the summary judgment for the Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit regarding the token’s status as a security. 

Experts speculate the outcome of this lawsuit will cause a notable change in the crypto market. Attorney John Deaton, Amicus Curiae in the XRP lawsuit, forecasted that a ruling might come before May 6. 
XRP price often surged when Ripple hit some breakthroughs in the lawsuit. However, at press time, XRP is trading at $0.465, indicating a minor price recovery.

This Expert Claims XRP Might Slide To $0.10, But There's A Catch

XRP is slightly surging l XRPUSDT on Tradingview.com The token has surrendered its 14-week price gains by 8.6%, with a seven-day price decline of 11.3% due to the market-wide onslaught. XRP’s current price move aligns with Egrag’s previous prediction that the token could pull back between $0.43 and $0.48.

Grayscale: These 15 Profitable Crypto Protocols Are Severely Undervalued

Grayscale Research identifies 15 top-revenue crypto protocols trading at significant valuation discounts, with many at single-digit or even 1x revenue multiples. Protocols like Pump.fun, PancakeSwap, and Meteora have market capitalizations roughly equal to their annual revenue. The report argues these financially-focused protocols (DEXs, lending, staking) are fundamentally undervalued and could benefit from the potential passage of the CLARITY Act, expected as soon as next month. This legislation aims to clarify digital asset regulation, potentially reducing institutional barriers and driving on-chain activity. The analysis breaks down the protocols into three groups: the "1x Club" (market cap ≈ revenue), mid-tier protocols with 3-9x multiples (e.g., Aave, Lido, Jupiter), and high-multiple protocols like Hyperliquid (15x) and Uniswap (37x), where valuation reflects future potential rather than current cash flows. Grayscale applies a traditional DCF model to Aave, suggesting a one-year price target of ~$175, representing ~130% upside from current levels. The report notes a risk-off macro environment since the Iran conflict has further compressed valuations, creating a potential entry window. The conclusion highlights that while the valuation data presents an intriguing opportunity, the investment thesis is contingent on the CLARITY Act's passage and subsequent institutional capital flows. Investors are cautioned to consider Grayscale's inherent conflict of interest as a crypto asset manager with products tied to these assets.

Sam Altman's Personal Alchemy of Wealth: Investing in 400 Companies, Over 10 Deeply Tied to OpenAI

The article investigates Sam Altman's personal wealth strategy, centered around his investments in approximately 400 companies while serving as OpenAI's CEO. Despite not holding direct equity in OpenAI, Altman has built a vast portfolio, with at least 10 of his investments having commercial ties or ongoing negotiations with OpenAI. This creates a complex network of potential conflicts of interest, drawing scrutiny from U.S. congressional committees and state attorneys general. Key investments highlighted include the anti-aging startup Retro Biosciences (valued at $258 million for his stake as of late last year) and the chipmaker Cerebras, whose value soared following an OpenAI procurement deal. His most significant financial gain is linked to the nuclear fusion company Helion, where a recent funding round reportedly increased his stake's value to at least $4.1 billion. The article details a decade-long relationship between Altman, Helion, and OpenAI, including a controversial non-binding power purchase agreement and Altman's efforts to secure investments from OpenAI and its backer SoftBank for Helion. Other points include internal investigations at Tools for Humanity (developer of Worldcoin) and OpenAI's massive contracts with tech giants like Nvidia. According to Forbes, Altman's net worth is around $3.4 billion, ranking him 1251st globally—a rise of over 1400 places since 2024. OpenAI's board states that Altman's external dealings are transparent and potential conflicts are carefully managed.

Former SpaceX Engineer Reconstructs Financial Execution System Using First Principles

Former SpaceX engineer Lex Li applies "First Principles Thinking" to financial infrastructure with Plan Execution Lab, recently raising angel funding at a $50M post-money valuation. The team argues that the core function of finance is capital allocation, and the critical gap is not in trading but in execution, which remains highly manual and fragmented. While assets, liquidity, and settlement have migrated on-chain, execution workflows (monitoring, risk management, liquidity coordination) are still human-native. In an era of accelerating AI agents, strategy decay is rapid, shifting the competitive edge from having the best strategy to having the most robust execution network. Plan Execution Lab introduces two core components: 1. **PlanX**: A Financial Execution Protocol designed as infrastructure for the migration from CEX to DEX, providing on-chain execution capabilities, liquidity access, risk management, and capital orchestration. 2. **Xgent**: An Autonomous Financial Runtime. Users define investment intents, risk preferences, and constraints; Xgent automatically constructs an execution graph, verifies it, and handles ongoing execution and optimization—streamlining the process from Intent to Autonomous Execution. The long-term vision is to create the "Bloomberg Terminal for Autonomous Finance"—a shared operating environment and execution network built collectively by participants like execution nodes, liquidity providers, and autonomous agents. The future of finance, they contend, belongs not to isolated algorithms but to open, collaborative execution networks.

Former SpaceX Engineer Reconstructs Financial Execution System from First Principles

Plan Execution Lab, a financial infrastructure project founded by former SpaceX engineer Lex Li, has raised angel funding at a $50M post-money valuation. The startup is applying "first principles thinking" from Li's SpaceX experience to rethink financial market execution. Their analysis posits that while assets, liquidity, and settlement have moved on-chain, the execution layer remains fundamentally human-dependent and fragmented. In the era of AI Agents, strategy advantages decay rapidly, shifting the competitive edge from isolated algorithms to robust **execution networks**. Plan Execution Lab's solution is a two-part system: **PlanX**, a Financial Execution Protocol designed to facilitate the migration from centralized exchanges (CEX) to on-chain markets by providing core on-chain execution capabilities; and **Xgent**, an Autonomous Financial Runtime. Xgent allows users to define investment goals and constraints, then autonomously constructs and manages the execution logic—moving from **Intent to Execution Graph to Verification to Autonomous Execution**. The long-term vision is to create the "Bloomberg Terminal for Autonomous Finance"—an operating environment not for humans, but for agents and execution nodes. The future financial system, they argue, will be a collaborative network built by diverse participants contributing execution capabilities, not secret strategies. The core competition will shift to who builds the most powerful and adaptive execution network.
