XRP is trending, but there’s a catch
Recently, Santiment data vendor warned the XRP community of a possible side effect of the currently rising trend that XRP entered after a 15% uptick, surpassing $0.84 for the first time since Feb. 16.
At the moment, the sixth largest cryptocurrency, Ripple-affiliated XRP, is trending both on social media and on the crypto market.
However, the Santiment analytics team has warned the XRP army that, historical, it has happened that traders begin to take their profits off the table once XRP starts trending and turns into a hot topic.
Despite the recent growth, over the past three days, the coin in question has shown a decline of around 12%, and it is changing hands at $0.7548 at the moment.
? $XRP is trending to kick off the weekend after a +15% surge saw prices peak above $0.84 for the first time since Feb. 16th. Historically, our social trends indicate that profit taking is justified whenever the crowd makes the #XRPNetwork a top topic. https://t.co/58Ct2rZVzk pic.twitter.com/nl9Ka6jwkf
