Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, expressed regret over selling most of his XRP holdings just weeks before the cryptocurrency reached new highs. He stated that had he held onto it longer, he would have made millions, expressing his disappointment in a video on social media. Portnoy sold his XRP at $2.40 after a recommendation from a friend who believed Circle would rival XRP, leading him to sell. At the time of his comments, XRP had surged to $3.60 after breaking its yearly high of $3.29, reflecting a 19.61% increase in just 24 hours. This rally was part of a broader positive trend in the crypto market following recent legislative wins in the US House of Representatives. Portnoy admitted he initially bought XRP out of fear of missing out, rather than a strong belief in its future.
