Dave Portnoy’s Million-Dollar Mistake: ’I Want to Cry’ Over Fumbled XRP Fortune
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy just dropped a crypto confession that stings worse than a bear market—he once held an XRP bag worth millions... and let it slip.
From Moonbags to Regret
The self-proclaimed 'president of crypto' (who famously bought Bitcoin at its 2021 peak) admitted dumping his XRP stash too early. How early? Enough to make any HODLer wince. No exact figures, but 'millions' paints a brutal 'what if' scenario.
A Lesson in Diamond Hands
Portnoy's blunder underscores crypto's golden rule: volatility cuts both ways. XRP's 2023 rally—sparked by Ripple's partial legal win—would've turned his paper losses into generational wealth. But as any trader knows, 'should've, could've, would've' pays exactly zero BTC per tear.
Finance’s Cynical Twist
Wall Street veterans are quietly chuckling. The guy who mocked 'suits' for missing Bitcoin now joins their hall of fame for premature exits. Maybe those MBAs know a thing or two about risk management after all.
