Yesterday XRP was 0.7 $ and now about 0.36 $, and 1 thing you should be aware is XRP devs HOLD most of coins in their hands, When you have most of the coins in the community you can easily Control the market, That how they play dirty game.
They can of course manipulate the xrp's price whenever they wanted to. Many investors tend to buy and ride the bullish trend theyre lucky if they sell it off right away, but just as theyve thought that it will continue to rise, others have been tricked when theyve bought at peak as it was already pull back again that fast.
Anyhow, the essence of holding such coins enters the significance of having a good coins. I just don't hold xrp again after the SEC lawsuit issue, thats why theyve move the price so others will still buy xrp despite of their struggles.
