Trump's XRP strategy begins to take effect, causing the market to decline

According to CoinWorld, due to former President Trump's renewed tariff threats and escalating geopolitical tensions, the price of XRP plummeted in tandem with bitcoin, dropping to around $1.85. Financial analyst Levi Rietveld pointed out that this sharp correction triggered institutional sell-offs, highlighting the usual pattern of market volatility caused by such threats ahead of final negotiations. This sell-off also underscores the strong correlation between XRP and bitcoin, with XRP's price movement largely following bitcoin's lead amid heightened macroeconomic uncertainty.
