The lawyer representing the interests of XRP holders in the US government’s lawsuit against Ripple announced the purchase of a “small amount” of bitcoins after a negative forecast from a famous TV presenter.

John Deaton explained his purchase by saying that some crypto enthusiasts always do the opposite of what financial advisor and TV host Jim Cramer advises. On a recent episode of CNBC’s Squawk on the Street, Cramer expressed pessimism about Bitcoin’s prospects, declaring that it was about to crash.

Cramer is known for his skepticism towards cryptocurrencies, so he often gives disappointing forecasts. However, assumptions often turn out to be wrong. In March, Deaton had already thanked Cramer for the expert’s instilling confidence in buying even more bitcoins, advising investors to quickly sell off the first cryptocurrency. Despite Cramer’s warnings, the Bitcoin rate then rose by 9% in four days.

In May, Deaton told his followers that his investments in BTC far outweighed his investments in XRP, with the lawyer calling the XRP community the most vibrant and informed community.

Let us remember that Deaton recently criticized a TV expert for saying that the public knows nothing about such a crypto asset as XRP. In September, the lawyer received an award and a $5,000 cash prize for defending the interests of cryptocurrency companies.
