Watching XRP repeatedly struggle around $1.84, it has been firmly held below the key moving averages for 70 consecutive days, and the market sentiment is increasingly torn.

On one side are the veteran traders like Peter Brant, the "bears," who are shaking their heads at the double-top pattern on the candlestick chart—if the support can't hold, XRP is likely to free fall to $1. On the other side, the "bulls" represented by analyst Steph pull out historical data to counter: in the past three similar technical breakouts, they all triggered epic rebounds starting at 70%, with the highest reaching 850%.

In such a standoff, ordinary investors are often confused by the conflicting bullish and bearish signals. But those who truly understand the market know—whether XRP ultimately breaks upward or downward, you must leave a backup plan for your principal.

When you're chasing the 850% dream of XRP, this backup plan silently guards your capital. When the market suddenly crashes by 50%, this backup provides you with valuable liquidity to buy the dip. That’s why more and more investors are starting to allocate to stable assets like decentralized USD—assets that don’t participate in the market rollercoaster but can play a role when you need it most.
