XRP experienced a rollercoaster market. Driven by Bitcoin, this token dropped from $2 to $1.8 within just two hours, a significant decline. However, the bulls did not sit idly by; buying gradually entered the market, eventually pushing the price back to around $1.90. This rapid rise and fall fully demonstrate the current market volatility—large capital movements can quickly trigger chain reactions, with small-cap coins often bearing the brunt. For XRP holders, such intense fluctuations are both a risk and a potential opportunity.

Oh my, here we go again. When big funds move, XRP has to tremble along, like a puppet on a string. This drop to $0.20 doesn't seem like much, but it whipsawed back and forth within two hours... really need to watch the stop-loss. The bulls are taking the plunge quite aggressively, but I still want to wait and see. I feel there's still more to come.

It's the same old trick again, when BTC sneezes, XRP catches a cold. I've seen this roller coaster many times over 20 minutes. But honestly, the rebound from 1.8 to 1.9 is quite strong, it feels like someone is bottom-fishing.

Another such market situation, a two-hour plunge followed by a rebound, is really incredible. Are the big players messing with us?

Haha, this wave of market movement is really a textbook case of big players cutting leeks. XRP has been whipped again, dropping from $2 to $1.8 in two hours. Where is the promised support at the bottom? I'm used to this kind of fluctuation. Small coins have a tough life, and when Bitcoin coughs, we all catch a cold. I already exited around the $1.9 rebound. Short-term traders in this wave are definitely trapped and dead. Volatility is an opportunity? Maybe for big players, but for retail investors, it's just a machine gun spray. The bullish support seems interesting; it looks like someone still has confidence in XRP. It’s always like this—two hours of market movement can match two weeks of normal trading, and I just can't keep up.

I got crushed in this wave, my mindset is collapsing. Feels like a sneeze from BTC would give XRP a cold.

Haha, this roller coaster is really exciting. It dropped from 2 to 1.8 in two hours, I can't handle it. Wait, did it bounce back to 1.9? This is the game of big players. To put it simply, the bottom-fishing heroes have entered, while small investors are still hesitating. With such high volatility, those holding positions must be both excited and scared, right?
