Staring at Bitcoin Six Figures in this XRP Diary

Dear Crypto Diary, I am sitting in the studio today, 12 September 2026, looking back at Crypto Diary #37. It is wild to see my own ballpoint pen marks from early 2025 and remember the energy of that moment. Back on 18 January 2025, the Fear and Greed index was sitting at a cool 66, and the vibe was pure growth. I remember my hand shaking slightly with excitement as I inked in those numbers: BTC at $104,700 and XRP at $3.18. It felt like the world was finally waking up to the XRPL. Every time I look at these pages on xrp.cafe, I am reminded why I refuse to touch AI tools. You can feel the soul in the ink and the neon marker highlights that no algorithm can replicate. This is human history recorded on the blockchain. While others flood the market with digital noise, I am staying true to the mission: hand-drawing our way to becoming the biggest and most recognized NFT collection in the world. We are building a legacy one page at a time, documenting the pain and the glory of the markets with nothing but raw talent and a pen.
