Looking back at the BTC milestone in this XRP Ledger journey

Dear Crypto Diary, I am sitting here in August 2026, flipping through the physical pages of my soul, and I stopped at Crypto Diary #40. It is wild to look back at January 27, 2025, when we were dealing with that Red Crypto Monday. I remember my hand shaking slightly as I moved the ballpoint pen across the paper to record BTC at 100,945 dollars. Back then, the Fear and Greed index sat at a neutral 55, even with the Deepseek and Yen drama rattling everyone’s nerves. XRP was hovering at 2.96 dollars, and the energy was electric despite the red candles. Every stroke of my neon markers on that page represents a moment of human history that no machine could ever replicate. This is why I create on xrp.cafe; the world is tired of AI-slop and needs the raw, imperfect truth of a human hand. My mission remains unchanged as I document this journey on the XRPL. We are building the biggest and most recognized NFT collection in the world, one ink stain at a time. The market fluctuates, but this art is forever.
