XRP's recent surge in burn rate is a response to temporary network activity (spikes) rather than a structural deflation trend. Due to the continued weakness in price movement, remaining below key moving averages, it has failed to provide sustained bullish catalysts.

The golden age of crypto was 2017, and it was the most beautiful bull run we've ever seen. There were no leverage or Binance. Even most of the trading pairs were against Bitcoin and not listed against USDT. Platforms like Poloniex and Bittrex dominated the market. Coins like NXT, SC, XVG, XRP were making 10,000x gains. Things we see today are like a dream. Binance appeared in late 2017 and gradually started to gain control. We saw the last bull run at the end of 2021, which was not like 2017 due to leverage, gambling, and Binance's dominance. After that, this market never saw good days again. Leverage and Binance took over the market. They listed coins, manipulated them with dumps, and then deleted them. Leverage money kept disappearing into CZ's pocket. This is the leverage money you see every week, claiming billions and billions—these were all spot liquidity entering the market. October 10th was the biggest lesson for the market, the biggest liquidation, and a crisis of trust—all under Binance's sponsorship and management. Today, people have the memory of a fly and have forgotten this day. The current bear market should weaken Binance and its control; otherwise, this market will not witness any bull run in the future and will remain a manipulated market. By the way, CZ's wealth reached $110 billion, a huge increase despite the market weakness. The reason is October 10th, in short, and his scam platform. $BTC $XAUUSD

Coinbase is once again under scrutiny after being accused of charging Ripple millions of dollars in XRP listing fees. Critics have called this practice "pay-to-list extortion." The exchange denied this model and released a detailed listing framework emphasizing due diligence rather than fees. As the regulatory outlook for XRP as a digital commodity becomes clearer, this debate has resurfaced, but questions remain about the exchange's transparency and market access.
