A notable analyst-whose reputation for backing this very token is quite renowned-has kindly condescended to explain why, despite the temptations of panic, investors should maintain their composure and refrain from folly by selling XRP. Or, in plain terms, “stay put, love, and don’t be hasty.”
Ethereum’s wallet count is so big, it could host a TED Talk. Santiment’s data reveals 168 million non-empty wallets-because who doesn’t want to join Ethereum’s exclusives? Meanwhile, Bitcoin clings to its “digital gold” reputation like a toddler with a security blanket. 🧵
