In 2018, XRP surged to $4 only to plummet 95% to $0.20. In 2021, it repeated the pattern - rising to $2 and then dropping to $0.30. And now, XRP is on the rise again, reaching $3. But remember, the market is a predator feasting on greed. When the price nears its peak, big investors will withdraw their money, leaving small investors holding the bag.
Reality:
The adjustment could be 30-50%, bringing XRP back to $0.40 or even $0.20.
A serious market decline of 70-85% is possible if this is another cycle peak.
We will hear the old sayings: “This time is different” or “Ripple is a rocket.” But be honest - the market does not forgive illusions.
Main lesson:
Manage risk wisely: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
When you reach a 100% profit, think about who will sell and who will still be the buyer at the peak.
Success in trading is based on cold calculation, not chasing quick money. Focus on a long-term strategy and avoid the traps of greed and inexperience.
