In accordance with The Crypto Basic, market pundit King Valex has highlighted the historical correlation between XRP and Bitcoin (BTC) price movements. Valex noted that XRP has consistently mirrored BTC's trends, both in bear and bull markets. For example, during BTC's 8,450% surge from 2015 to 2017, XRP rose 51,633%. Similarly, in 2020–2021, as BTC climbed from $13,000 to $69,000, XRP increased from $0.24 to $1.96. More recently, BTC's 157% rise from $49,000 in January 2024 to $126,000 in October 2025 was matched by XRP's 500% increase from $0.61 to $3.66. Valex argues that claims XRP does not follow BTC are 'delusional.'
