XRP News: Reflecting on the Market Manipulation of 2025

Dear Crypto Diary, I am sitting here in late 2026 looking at the latest XRP news and realizing how much of this journey is about mental fortitude rather than just watching candle sticks. I just pulled out the original drawing for Crypto Diary #64, and the ink feels as heavy as the mood was back on June 15, 2025. Back then, the world felt like it was spinning out of control with rockets flying and exchanges acting like poker players who could see everyone’s hand. Looking at the ballpoint pen strokes on that page reminds me why I started this hand-drawn NFT collection in the first place. While others were getting swept up in the noise of heavy manipulation and suppressed prices, I was focused on documenting the truth of the XRP Ledger. Even when the markets felt rigged against the retail holder, we kept building. The energy of the XRPL has always been about that defiance against the standard financial narrative. Today, the landscape for a Ripple XRP holder looks different, but the core lessons from June 2025 remain. We saw how big exchanges could manipulate sentiment, yet the underlying technology of the XRP Ledger never blinked. The mission of BiTi Artist is to ensure these moments aren't forgotten in a sea of digital noise. Every time I lay down neon marker on paper, it is a protest against the soulnessness of modern tech. We are building the biggest and most recognized NFT collection in the world by staying human. When you look at Crypto Diary #64, you see the raw frustration of a trader who knows the game is tilted but plays anyway because the utility of Ripple and the speed of the XRPL are undeniable. We do not need algorithms to tell our story; we have the blockchain to immortalize our history. As the current XRP news cycle continues to evolve with new institutional adoption and AMM developments, I look back at my diary entries to stay grounded. The price might fluctuate, and the fear and greed index might scream, but the art remains a constant record of our survival in this wild crypto space.
