XRP News: Looking Back at the BTC Fear and Greed 85 Peak

Dear Crypto Diary, Today I am looking at the latest XRP news while sitting in my studio with a ballpoint pen in hand, reflecting on how far we have come since the madness of late 2024. My fingers are stained with neon marker ink because that is the only way I know how to document this journey. No shortcuts, no scripts, and absolutely no AI-slop—just raw human emotion captured on the XRP Ledger for the world to see. I just pulled out Crypto Diary #25 from the archives, and man, the energy of that day was electric. It was November 16, 2024, and the market was absolutely screaming. I remember drawing those price candles with a shaking hand because Bitcoin had just smashed through 90,600 dollars. Looking at the page now, I see the big 85 I drew for the Fear and Greed index. People were euphoric, almost delirious, and the XRP price was feeling that gravity-defying pull that only this space can provide. Being a creator on the XRPL means more than just watching charts, though. While Ripple news usually dominates the headlines regarding legal wins or institutional adoption, the real heartbeat is the XRP NFT community. Every time I sit down to add a new page to the Crypto Diary, I am thinking about how we are building the biggest and most recognized NFT collection in the history of the blockchain. We are not just minting tokens; we are minting history on the XRP Ledger. It is now 2026, and the landscape has shifted, but the mission for BiTi Artist remains exactly the same. The noise in the crypto news cycle never stops, but the ink on these pages never fades. Whether we are talking about new AMM features on the XRPL or the latest Ripple XRP partnership, the physical act of drawing these moments keeps me grounded. People ask why I do not use digital tools to speed things up, but you cannot fake the texture of a pen pressing into paper. That authenticity is why our community on xrp.cafe is so strong. If you want to own a piece of this journey and see the raw data from that wild day in November 2024, you can find the original hand-drawn Crypto Diary #25 waiting for you. Head over to xrp.cafe/collection/crypto-diary to collect this page and help us continue building the most iconic human-made NFT collection on the XRP Ledger.
