JD (@jaydee_757), a popular crypto analyst on X, has published a chart comparing XRP to Bitcoin over more than a decade. His analysis highlights a consistent pattern of sharp rallies followed by deep retracements in the XRP/BTC pair. The alternating pumps and dumps, marked clearly on his chart, suggest that these swings are more than a coincidence. The chart, which tracks the pair from 2014 through a projection into 2027, identifies major rallies in 2014, 2017, and 2018, followed by extended downturns. The most recent data points to another potential rally on the horizon. For JD, the repeated cycles reveal a broader dynamic in the market, one in which Bitcoin whales may be using XRP to strengthen their own BTC positions. Be honest… Does this look like a Pump & Dump? To me, it looks like $BTC whales building their BTC holdings using $XRP . No wonder Majority gets REKT every cycle Im not a BTC or XRP maxi.. I'm here to build my WEALTH! The RISE & CRASH is coming! Get ready to Take profits!… pic.twitter.com/NBch9Evs9V — JD (@jaydee_757) May 28, 2025 XRP and Bitcoin Whales The interpretation JD presents shows that large Bitcoin holders rotate between the two assets to accumulate more BTC. Each XRP surge could represent a period of increased liquidity and opportunity for capital flow, followed by consolidation back into Bitcoin. JD described this as a pump-and-dump. This perspective sheds light on why XRP experiences such pronounced rallies and declines, as well as why so many retail investors find themselves caught on the wrong side of the cycle. The chart emphasizes not only past price behavior but also the likelihood of similar moves ahead. JD points to another potential rally in the coming years, followed by a correction that would complete the recurring structure. For traders and investors, this framework highlights the importance of planning exit strategies during periods of rapid price growth. Profiting from the Pump and Dump Cycles If Bitcoin whales have consistently used XRP as part of their strategy, this underscores the asset’s central role in the broader crypto economy. XRP has demonstrated the capacity to sustain liquidity even during prolonged downturns, and its recurring rallies reflect its importance within larger market cycles. JD’s assessment of XRP against Bitcoin reframes the narrative around its volatility. Instead of random swings, the chart presents a structured sequence tied to the actions of large market players.
