Abstract generation in progress

【Crypto World】Ripple is currently fluctuating between $1.87 and $1.88. Although the weekly increase barely reached 1.5%, it has already given back 17.5% of its gains since December. What’s more painful is that this asset has fallen from its all-time high of $3.65 in July, with a deep correction of nearly 50%.

According to market analysis, XRP is expected to re-test the $2 level by mid-January 2026, but don’t celebrate too early—an retracement is expected to come quickly. By late February, it is very likely to fall below this level again. The logic behind this is actually simple: the current macroeconomic uncertainty still clouds the market, the cryptocurrency sector is under frequent pressure, and there is little hope for a fundamental improvement in the short term. Investors should be mentally prepared for wave adjustments.

Alright, once again it's just a $2 pump and then a drop below, we've seen this script too many times. --- XRP really feels stifling this time. It dropped from 3.65 to now, losing 50% just like that. --- Only in 2026 can I touch $2? Then I might as well invest in other assets. --- Using macroeconomic reasons as an excuse is worn out. Honestly, nobody wants it. --- Just hyping up, rising in January and falling in February. Isn't this just the typical pump-and-dump scheme? --- I definitely won't touch it. This kind of oscillating coin is just disgusting. --- Holding it could still drop 50%, which is unbelievable, really.

Comment 1: Waiting until 2026 to break even again? I might as well sleep until then. Comment 2: From 3.65 to now... I don't want to calculate anymore, it hurts. Comment 3: Will it drop again in late February? Fine, anyway I'm already numb. Comment 4: I've long prepared for this wave adjustment mentally, it's just that my wallet isn't ready. Comment 5: Let's not talk about macroeconomic uncertainties, my XRP is definitely going to fall into a pit. Comment 6: Waiting, waiting, again waiting? I've already waited half a year, damn it. Comment 7: No matter how good the analysis sounds, it’s useless; it will just fall. Comment 8: Falling from 3.65 to now, and you still dare to say there's hope for $2? Wake up, everyone. Comment 9: Short-term improvements are difficult; long-term improvements are even harder, this broken coin. Comment 10: Predictions, predictions, every time it's like farting.

Coming back to touch the $2 mark again? Still the same old story, rises a bit then falls. Honestly, from 3.65 down to now, I'm truly exhausted. Waiting for 2026? Bro, I think this analysis is just a placebo. XRP's repeated fluctuations are just testing people's patience. Falling again in a month? That's called "prediction"... Can you stay so calm even with a 50% retracement? I'm speechless.

This XRP is really a torment, dropping from 3.65 and still struggling now. Will it touch $2 in 2026 and then continue to fall? I think it might be even more uncertain. No courage to buy the dip even after a 50% drop, with such a poor macro environment. Am I going to be trapped again? Where is my XRP? So this wave, I simply can't wait until 2026, I already cut my losses. This kind of market where you're happy one moment and disappointed the next is the most annoying. $2 is just an illusion; don't believe what analysts say. I just want to know how low this wave will go. It's already 2026 and only $2; is it necessary to wait? Having been optimistic about XRP for so many years, I still got beaten up by the market.
