Trader and YouTube blogger Myles G has grabbed the community's attention. On his page on X, he announced the sale of his Lamborghini to invest the funds in the cryptocurrency XRP. Details of the deal remain undisclosed, but users are demanding proof, as the trader has a history of bold and sometimes unbelievable claims, including stories about selling his own kidney for investments.

The news about the sale surfaced on November 5 and immediately sparked a reaction on social media. According to Myles, he sold his Lamborghini Huracán Spyder and used the proceeds to buy Ripple’s native coin, XRP.

The transaction details and the final amount of the deal are still a mystery. However, given that the price of this particular car model starts at $285,000, and XRP is currently trading at $0.5459 per coin, Myles could have bought at least 155,500 tokens.

This isn’t the first time Myles has surprised the crypto community with flashy claims. Just a week ago, he claimed to have sold his kidney on the darknet to invest in XRP and Dogecoin. A few months prior, he shared a story about his father who, just as boldly, sold his house for $800,000 and spent the entire sum on buying XRP (around 437,000 tokens). Based on XRP's current price, the trader’s father could have purchased approximately 437,000 coins.

Ambitious Predictions for XRP

Myles doesn’t stop at investments — he actively shares optimistic predictions for XRP’s growth. In the near term, he sees the price reaching $1.96 and $2.84, and by December, he expects XRP to hit $3. For the long term, Myles anticipates the price will reach $589 per coin by 2030.

Myles G's actions have stirred mixed feelings within the crypto community: some view this as an aggressive investment strategy, while others see it as an attention-seeking move, pointing to the speculative nature of his predictions.
