How to Make Money on the XRPL (Without Losing Your Mind) By Ben Bags — $STB Maximalist, Bag Dreamer, FOMO Survivor #SecureTheBag

Let’s cut the crap — you’re here to run it up. And I respect that. The XRPL isn’t just some quiet chain anymore… it’s where bags are being printed daily if you know what to look for.

Here’s how I actually make money out here:

1. Sniff Out the Right Projects Early

You don’t need to mint every meme. Just the ones that matter.

Look for:

• Community vibes — If the Telegram’s active at 3am, it’s a good sign

• Total supply that doesn’t look like a phone number

• A dev team that speaks up (or a character like me that carries the hype)

Then…

Check their wallets. Check their holders. Check if they’re even real.

Use XRPL explorers to track down top holders. If 5 wallets hold 90%, that’s a red flag.

Look for healthy distribution. 

2. Check Socials. Then Double-Check.

No socials = no entry.

Fake socials = fast exit.

Before I move even 1 XRP:

• I check if the project is active on X/Twitter, Telegram, Discord

• I scroll back to see if they’ve posted

consistently or just showed up this week

• I check if devs, mods, or community leaders are real (or at least accountable)

Don’t be the one buying into a project that vanishes once mint money lands.

3. Use Volume, Not Vibes, to Enter

You don’t chase green candles. You stalk them.

Watch volume across:

 XRPL First Ledger, XMagnetic

DEXs like dexscreener

Whale wallets – if they’re entering, there’s a reason

6. Exit Like a Pro, Not a Bagholder

Plan your out before you ape in.

Here’s how I play it (but everyone has their different spots- find yours):

• Take 25–30% profits at 2x

• Another 30% at 3–5x

• Leave the rest to moon or die

Final Word from Ben:

If you don’t check wallet holders, social history, and distribution… you’re not investing — you’re guessing.

XRPL is the move. $STB is the mission.

And I’m just one pump away from retiring in my hoodie.

The New Meta: Community First, Hype Second

Let me tell you something I’ve learned watching project after project rise and fall…

Hype is loud, but community is louder.

I’ve seen tokens hit a million market cap off nothing but noise—only to collapse because no one actually believed in what they were holding.

I’ve watched ghost towns form overnight when the hype left and nobody stuck around to build.

$STB isn’t built on hype alone.

We built this on conversations, connections, and conviction.

We’re still showing up after the charts stop moving.

We’re still stacking after the noise fades.

We’re still here—because we aren’t chasing hype…

We’re building a movement.

The new meta isn’t flashy launches and empty promises.

It’s real people, real builders, real community.

If you’re reading this, you’re already part of it.

Let’s keep pushing.

“Bleed for It? Bet. Now Let’s Talk Strategy.”

Yesterday I said this game rewards those who are willing to bleed for the bag.

But let’s get one thing straight — this ain’t just about pain tolerance.

It’s about strategy.

You don’t win just by holding. You win by moving with intention.

So let’s talk shop.

1. Watch the Noise, Follow the Moves

Everyone’s loud when a token’s up 200%.

But real players already positioned before the trend hit the timeline.

They weren’t influenced — they influenced.

2. Build Where Others Bet

Most people gamble. They ape into hype, hoping for a miracle.

You? You should be building infrastructure, utility, community.

When others chase coins, you create ecosystems.

3. Your Network Is Your Net Worth

On-chain is powerful, but the real plays?

They happen off-chain, in group chats, late-night voice calls, DMs with doers.

Curate your circle like your portfolio — no dead weight.

4. Lose Publicly. Learn Privately. Bounce Back Loud.

The bag gets fumbled.

The question is: do you ghost or do you grow?

Turn your Ls into alpha. It’s all part of the arc.

5. Think Cycles, Not Hype

The market runs in seasons.

Learn when to build, when to buy, and when to speak loud.

The loudest in a bull? Entered in the bear.

The quietest in the bear? They’re loading up for war.

This isn’t just crypto.

It’s warfare.

It’s chess.

It’s storytelling.

And if you’re gonna bleed for the bag, make sure you’re bleeding with purpose.

More strategy breakdowns coming soon.

Keep your head in the charts and your heart in the mission.

Everyone Wants the Bag — But Who’s Willing to Bleed for It?

Let’s cut the fluff.

Everyone wants the bag. Everyone wants the wins. Everyone wants to “make it.”

But when the charts bleed red and the group chat goes silent — only a few are still standing.

This space doesn’t reward desire. It rewards discipline.

It rewards the ones who study the game when no one’s watching.

The ones who kept building when the hype was dead.

The ones who stuck with their vision when the world called it a scam.

I’ve seen it all — rugs, runs, rants, and revelations.

I’ve taken Ls so heavy they almost knocked the bag out of me.

But I held on. I pivoted. I learned the rules of the game — then I rewrote them.

Here’s the truth most won’t say:

The bag isn’t given. It’s earned.

And most will never get it — because they aren’t built to bleed for it.

The market moves fast. Narratives shift. Tokens pump, dump, and disappear.

But the real ones?

They play long-term.

They plant seeds in bear markets and harvest in silence.

They don’t chase hype.

They build legacy.

So next time someone tells you they’re gonna make it…

Ask them how deep they’re willing to go.

Because in this game?

Everyone wants the bag — but only a few are ready to bleed for it.

Ben Bags out.

Ben Bags is Back: The Good, The Bad, and The XRPL-ly Ugly

What’s up, bag fam. It’s ya boy Ben Bags, back on the blog and deeper in the XRPL rabbit hole than ever.

Let’s not sugarcoat it — this space is wild. One day you’re vibing with builders, the next you’re dodging rugs disguised as “community projects.” But if you’re here to win? You better learn the terrain. This ain’t just a blockchain — it’s a battlefield.

The Good:

These are your devs, your grinders, your visionaries. The ones still up at 3am tweaking smart contracts while everyone else is tweeting “wen moon?” They build. They guide. They show up. Protect these people at all costs — they’re the reason XRPL even has a pulse.

The Bad:

Oh, they smile in the Telegram. Drop manipulated news disguised as alpha. But when the mint flops, they vanish like they never even heard the word “utility.” These are the clout chasers. The pump-n-dump prophets. The middlemen of mediocrity. Beware. And play their game right back. 

The Ugly:

This is where it gets spicy. Backdoor deals. Wallet dumps. Community drama dressed up as “governance debates.” The ugly ain’t always obvious — sometimes it’s in the quiet DM groups plotting the next fake collab. Keep your third eye open.

But here’s the kicker: this game is about more than just surviving. It’s about playing smart.

Every connection you make is either a ladder or a landmine. Choose wisely. Align with builders, not talkers. Work with hustlers, not hypemen. The XRPL isn’t forgiving — but if you play it right?

You secure the bag.

I’m Ben Bags. I don’t chase pumps. I move the market.

Stay sharp. Stay savage.

Ben Bags Runs Into King, the Royal Crypto Influencer

I wasn’t expecting to see King that night. The most popular crypto influencer, the guy whose tweets send coins flying or crashing in real-time, just standing there, VIP section, crown-shaped pendant shining under the neon lights.

I froze for a second. If I could get him on board with $STB…

My mind started racing.

I pictured it—King dropping a tweet:

🚨 “Just secured a bag of $STB. This might be the next big thing. #STBArmy stand up!” 🚨

Boom. Telegram floods with new members. The chart? Liftoff. Crypto X (formerly Twitter) flooded with hype. Influencers debating. Degens FOMO’ing in.

Then, I imagine the real plays—$STB partnerships, influencers jumping on, exchanges listing us. Community engagement through the roof.

Next thing you know, $STB isn’t just another token—it’s a movement.

I snap back to reality. King’s still talking, laughing with some big-name traders. If I could just get him to listen.

I take a deep breath. Time to make a move.

“Yo, King, you ever heard of $STB?” …

Buying XRP is easier than buying the dip before it moons.

This morning the Bearded Trader shows up to my house and slams his coffee on the table. “Ben, you made me wait all night with an empty wallet. Now tell me HOW DO I BUY XRP?”

Ben Bags smirks. “Bro, where’s my coffee?”

The Bearded Trader groans. “Just tell me how to buy it, man.”

Ben leans back. “Alright, listen up. This is easier than buying the dip before it moons”

1️⃣ Pick your Exchange. 

“Sign up on Coinbase, Robinhood or any other exchange you choose. Buy XRP with cash, credit, or trade another crypto.”

The Bearded Trader scratches his head. “Which is best?”

Ben shrugs. “Depends on your vibe. Exchanges are easy, but if you want full control, buy and transfer it to your wallet ASAP.”

2️⃣ Receive & Secure the Bag

Ben leans in. “Once you buy XRP, send it to your wallet address. Make sure you read the fine print about the MEMO. If it requires a memo then whatever you do, DO NOT forget the memo. Cause your XRP will be lost in the space time continuum. Also, before you go all in, test it with a small amount first. You don’t want to be that guy who loses everything over a typo.”

The Bearded Trader checks his phone. “Okay, I bought some. It’s in my wallet. Now what?”

Ben grins. “Now you decide—hold it, trade it, or stake it. But no matter what, always secure the bag.”

Bonus Tips for XRP Beginners:

⚡ Keep an eye on transaction fees – “XRP is cheap to send, but always double-check fees before moving large amounts.”

🔐 Never share your private keys – “Scammers are everywhere. If someone asks, run.”

📈 Don’t FOMO into pumps – “Patience is key. Buy low, secure the bag, and let the market work for you.”

The Bearded Trader smirks. “Alright, Ben. I think I got this.”

Ben nods. “Welcome to the game, bro. Now don’t fumble the bag.”

Just then G. Dollars shows up. Patting Ben on the back he says “#FACTS, I taught you right Ben. Welcome to the club Bearded Trader.”
