So, XRP decided to take a nosedive in 2025, plummeting by nearly 25% despite having what looked like its best year ever. 🌟✨ Like, seriously, what’s the crypto equivalent of “new year, new me” gone wrong? 🤡
- XRP price dropped by nearly 25% in 2025 and by ~50% from its year-to-date high. 📉💔
- All this happened despite major news that should’ve made it the belle of the crypto ball. 👸🎉
- Technical analysis says it’s still in freefall. 🚀➡️🪂
Ripple (XRP) token hit $1.8485 on Saturday, down by ~50% from its yearly high. That’s $50 billion in valuation gone-poof! Like a magician who forgot the trick. 🎩🪄💨
Top Ripple News in 2025 (Spoiler: It’s a Rollercoaster 🎢)
The SEC finally dropped its multi-year lawsuit against Ripple, and you’d think XRP would throw a party. 🎉 But nope, it just sulked in the corner. Meanwhile, the same SEC approved XRP ETFs, which raked in $1.3 billion. They even outshone Solana’s ETFs-talk about a plot twist! 🍿
Ripple went on an acquisition spree, snapping up Hidden Road, Rail, Palisade, and GTreasury. Oh, and they got a $500 million investment at a $40 billion valuation. 💼💰 But XRP was like, “Nah, I’m good,” and kept sliding. 🤷♀️
Even the Ripple USD stablecoin, now worth $1.4 billion, couldn’t save the day. And Ripple Labs got a banking license! But XRP was too busy faceplanting to care. 🏦💸
Most recently, Ripple Labs got a banking license to offer services in the U.S. Custody solutions for RLUSD and its portfolio companies? Sure, why not. But XRP was like, “I’ll just keep falling, thanks.” 🏛️💨
Why Did XRP Crash Despite All This? (Cue the Drama 🎭)
Blame it on the crypto market’s mood swings. Bitcoin and altcoins were in the red all year. Bitcoin dropped 10%, and the total market cap went from $4.2 trillion to $2.8 trillion. XRP was just following the crowd-misery loves company, right? 😢
Then there was the Trump election news. XRP jumped when Trump won in 2024, but investors sold the news faster than a Black Friday sale. 🛍️💨 Classic “buy the rumor, sell the news”-except XRP didn’t get the memo. 📉
Technicals didn’t help either. A double-top pattern at $3.39 and a neckline at $1.6118? That’s crypto’s way of saying, “Brace for impact.” 🚁⬇️
