Interesting phenomena are emerging. The criticism against XRP has not been this loud in the past six months, and the bearish sentiment on social media has reached new heights. Data tracking platforms show that negative emotions are running high. But here’s a twist—historically, such extreme dislike is often not a bad sign; in fact, it frequently signals a major price rebound.

Retail investors are selling out in fear, while institutions are quietly accumulating. The spot XRP ETF has been attracting funds since its launch, with 22 consecutive days of net capital inflow, totaling over $1 billion. Compared to the outflows from Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs during the same period, this creates an interesting contrast.

Another story is unfolding on the other side of the market. There is an asset called decentralized USD (such as USDD backed by over-collateralization), and this type of stablecoin has tripled in market cap over the past 8 months after its upgrade. In such volatile market conditions, how strong investors’ demand for “certainty” is, this number speaks volumes.

These two forces collide to reveal the current market truth: on one side, a contrarian stance against high-risk assets; on the other, a firm grip on stable assets. One pursues gains through excitement, the other seeks psychological comfort through stability. Stablecoins like USDD, with 120%-150% over-collateralization mechanisms and price stabilization modules, have created a transparent, reliable safe haven for value amid market fluctuations. When market sentiment swings unpredictably, the value of this stability is amplified infinitely.
