Looking Back at the XRP Breakthrough in my NFT Diary

Reflecting on the raw ink of Crypto Diary #41 when XRP hit 3.08 dollars and the market felt the first real heat of a new era.
Dear Crypto Diary,
I am sitting here in late 2026, flipping through the physical pages of my journey and I stopped at Crypto Diary #41. It is wild to look back at January 31, 2025. I remember the smell of the neon markers as I colored in that entry. Back then, the Fear and Greed index was sitting at a neutral 54, and XRP had just reclaimed 3.08 dollars. People were debating if it was a fake-out or a new beginning, but my pen didn't lie—you can see the energy in the strokes. Every line in these drawings is a testament to human persistence against the flood of generic AI-slop filling our feeds. I created this collection to prove that real art belongs on the XRPL. Seeing BTC at 105,000 dollars on that page feels like a lifetime ago, but the mission remains the same. BiTi Artist isn't stopping until this hand-drawn history is recognized as the biggest NFT collection in the world. Whether the market is red or green, I will keep recording our truth on xrp.cafe with nothing but my ballpoint pen and a dream.
