XRP plunged by more than 10% earlier this Sunday before paring some losses. It is still up by nearly 30% over the past week. 

Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency by market cap, also plunged to the $95,000 level after failing to touch $100,000 on Friday.

As reported by U.Today, Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz recently warned that corrections were “inevitable.” However, he is convinced that Bitcoin will eventually reclaim $100,000.
