XRP: The Crypto Rollercoaster That Won’t Pay for Its Own Therapy
After a brief flirtation with $2.40 in early January, the token resumed its downward spiral, hitting a 15-month low of $1.11 on February 5. Most exchanges, of course, were too busy updating their “Buy the Dip” banners to notice. XRP then staged a rebound, teasing the $1.65 resistance like a cat with a laser pointer, but ultimately settled around $1.45. Given the crypto market’s recent resurgence, the question on everyone’s mind is: Has XRP finally hit rock bottom, or is it just taking a nap before another nosedive?
