How to Navigate an XRP Crash and Aim to Buy the Dip Instead of Panic Selling

XRP (Ripple) has plunged by more than 63% from its all-time high of $3.65 recorded in July 2025, heightening investor anxiety. However, a contrasting analysis suggests that now may actually be an optimal time to buy the dip. While Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen below its 2021 peak, intensifying selling pressure across the broader market, “smart money” is reportedly using fear-driven sell-offs as an opportunity to accumulate assets at discounted prices rather than panic selling.

According to cryptocurrency-focused outlet Watcher Guru on February 8 (local time), while many investors lock in losses and exit the market during downturns, savvy investors are turning declines into buying opportunities. The report notes that for those who regretted missing previous dip-buying chances, this sharp drop could represent a second opportunity to acquire assets at lower prices.

Bear markets tend to dampen investor sentiment, but they can offer attractive entry points for new investors and opportunities for existing holders to lower their average cost. For those who bought XRP near its peak, taking advantage of current lower price levels to average down could be a viable strategy.

Despite prevailing fear, many believe there remains a strong likelihood that XRP could set new records when the next bull market arrives. In particular, several spot XRP ETFs launched late last year are expected to serve as major channels for capital inflows once market conditions begin to recover.

Historically, Bitcoin has consistently broken previous highs following major downturns, and a similar pattern may repeat after this bear market. Given that XRP tends to closely track Bitcoin’s trajectory, a successful rebound in Bitcoin could be accompanied by a strong upside move in XRP as well.

That said, the possibility of entering a prolonged “crypto winter” cannot be ruled out. In such a scenario, XRP prices could decline further, making it prudent to avoid prematurely calling a bottom and instead adopt a cautious approach, such as dollar-cost averaging while closely monitoring market direction.
