XRP has taken a sharp hit – dropping over 16% in just one day – but some voices in the community are urging holders not to panic.
After rallying from $1.95 to $3.66 in just 30 days, XRP was bound for a cooldown. That’s a 92% gain in a single month. So this latest dip? It might just be the market catching its breath.
One XRP holder summed it up on X:
“We just had a 16% pullback. It’s a healthy correction. Nothing out of the ordinary in crypto. Sit back, chill and relax… $10–$15 still in play.”
While headlines may focus on the price drop, longtime traders know that steep corrections are normal in fast-moving bull cycles. Especially in crypto, where double-digit daily swings are more of a feature than a bug.
$XRP went from $1.95 to $3.66, up 92% in 30 days. We just had a 16% pullback. It's a healthy correction. Nothing out of the ordinary in crypto. Sit back, chill and relax. Let it bottom out and we should be on our way to much higher prices real soon. $10-$15 still in play. pic.twitter.com/aUQup1VctA

Another community voice, Vincent Van Code, put it this way:
“Who panic sold XRP? My rule: if there are no valid news items that justify a huge dump like that, it’s likely going to bounce.”
At the time of writing, XRP is hovering near $3.07, trying to stabilize after the sell-off. No major negative news has surfaced – no lawsuits, no ETF rejections, no ecosystem failures. Just a sharp move after a massive rally.

Meanwhile, This Bitcoin Layer-2 Presale Is Heating Up
Another project is quietly gaining serious momentum – and raising big money in the process.
Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) is a new Layer-2 solution built on top of Bitcoin, and its presale has already raised over $4.5 million, showing growing interest from early supporters.
So, what is it?
Bitcoin Hyper aims to fix Bitcoin’s biggest problems: slow transactions, high fees, and limited scalability. It does that by borrowing some of the best tech from Solana – including the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) – to create a faster, smarter Layer-2 experience for Bitcoin users.
At its core, Bitcoin Hyper works as a secondary chain that processes transactions off-chain, then settles back to the Bitcoin mainnet using cryptographic proofs. That means users get lightning-fast speeds and cheaper fees, without sacrificing Bitcoin’s base-layer security.
One of the standout features is its canonical bridge, which allows users to lock BTC on the Bitcoin network and receive a wrapped version on the Hyper network. From there, they can use it in dApps, DeFi protocols, or just send it faster and cheaper. When they’re done, they simply burn the wrapped BTC and get their original coins back.
The network also uses zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to ensure that everything on Layer 2 is valid and secure – without relying on centralized validators.
In short: Bitcoin Hyper takes what Bitcoin does best and supercharges it with modern infrastructure. And with the presale already nearing $5 million raised, it’s clear that people are paying attention.
