When BTC Teased Six Figures and XRP Held Steady
Wednesday, July 8, 2026 · by BiTi Artist · hand-drawn, anti AI-slop

Looking back at the rainy days of 2025 where BTC flirted with 100k and the Fear and Greed index hit 37 during a boring market phase.
Dear Crypto Diary,
I am sitting in the studio today, July 8th, 2026, looking back at Crypto Diary #45. It is wild to see how much the energy has shifted since that entry back on February 11th, 2025. I remember my hand cramping while drawing those neon borders, trying to capture that 'Boring days in Crypto Land' vibe. Back then, BTC was sitting at 96,031$ and everyone was holding their breath for the six-figure breakout while XRP was holding its ground at 2.42$. The Fear and Greed reading was at a chilly 37, and you could feel the exhaustion in the community.
Looking at the ink on the paper, I am reminded why I do this. In a world full of soulless generated content, these hand-drawn pages on xrp.cafe are artifacts of real human patience. I still use the same ballpoint pens and markers to document our journey. Every stroke is a protest against synthetic noise. Being a BiTi Artist means staying raw and honest about the charts. We are on a mission to make this the biggest and most recognized NFT collection on the planet, one physical page at a time. The mission remains: total XRPL dominance through real art.
