Cryptocurrency analyst and influencer Levi has encouraged investors to accumulate at least 10,000 Stellar (XLM) tokens, arguing that the asset is well positioned for potential gains as the legislative environment around cryptocurrencies evolves in the United States.
Regulatory changes and XLM accumulation target
Levi presented his perspective in a video post on social media, linking his recommendation to the anticipated Senate vote on the CLARITY Act. The CLARITY Act is proposed legislation aimed at providing greater regulatory certainty for digital assets and their classification in the U.S. market.
He cited recent statements from Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, who referred to the bill as being near completion, with a decisive Senate vote expected soon. Levi noted that even if the bill fails to pass, Coinbase’s contingency plans indicate the broader push for clear digital asset regulation is unlikely to lose momentum.
For Levi, these regulatory developments strengthen the case for closely monitoring XLM, which he identified as an asset that stands to benefit from increasing regulatory clarity and a rise in institutional participation.
Stressing the urgency of building a position in XLM, Levi stated, “I believe that everyone should be aiming to get at least 10,000 XLM.”

XLM value projections and acquisition costs
Levi calculated the cost of acquiring 10,000 XLM at the token’s recent price of approximately $0.18, which amounts to about $1,800. He illustrated several price scenarios to demonstrate the potential returns of holding this amount of XLM if the token appreciates significantly.
He suggested that if XLM reaches $1, a holding of 10,000 tokens would be valued at $10,000. Should the price climb to $2, the holding would increase to $20,000. At $5 per token, Levi highlighted that the portfolio could be worth as much as $50,000. However, he cautioned that these are illustrative examples and not investment guarantees.
| Potential XLM price | Value of 10,000 XLM |
|---|---|
| $0.18 (current) | $1,800 |
| $1.00 | $10,000 |
| $2.00 | $20,000 |
| $5.00 | $50,000 |
Levi used these projections to illustrate why accumulating 10,000 XLM could have a significant impact on an investor’s portfolio if the token experiences strong growth in the future.
XLM and XRP: Institutional focus
Levi also compared Stellar (XLM) to XRP, observing that both projects are focused on payments and financial infrastructure. He highlighted Stellar’s efforts in developing institutional tokenization solutions and described XRP as primarily targeting cross-border payments and institutional finance.
He argued that both XLM and XRP are strategically positioned to benefit as more institutions explore blockchain-based solutions, particularly if the regulatory environment in the U.S. becomes clearer after the Senate vote.

Levi concluded that the outcome of the forthcoming Senate vote could play a critical role in shaping the growth trajectory of leading payment-focused cryptocurrencies like XLM and XRP as legislative clarity continues to evolve.
