Crypto traders are used to seeing a price surge in non-serious cryptocurrencies such as dogecoin (DOGE) as a sign of market froth. Now it looks as though XRP, the payments-focused cryptocurrency, can also be used as an indicator for bull-market peaks in bitcoin (BTC).

加密货币交易者被用来看到非严重的加密货币（例如Dogecoin（Doge））的价格上涨是市场泡沫的标志。现在看来，以付款为重点的加密货币XRP也可以用作比特币（BTC）中牛市峰的指标。

Unlike meme tokens like DOGE and shiba inu (SHIB), XRP has utility. It is used by Ripple to facilitate cross-border transactions, which places it in a bucket different from the memecoins.

与Doge和Shiba Inu（Shib）等模因令牌不同，XRP具有实用性。波纹用它来促进跨境交易，这将其放在与内存不同的水桶中。

Even so, since 2017, XRP has been a contrary indicator for bitcoin bulls, tending to rally— often soaring several hundred percent in a short time — in the final stages of BTC bull runs, marking the point at which bitcoin ultimately peaked.

即便如此，自2017年以来，XRP一直是比特币公牛的相反指标，在BTC公牛的最后阶段倾向于集会（通常在短时间内飞涨几百％），这标志着比特币最终达到顶峰的地步。

XRP experienced a remarkable 10-fold rally from December 2017 to early 2018, coinciding with bitcoin's peak at around $20,000, before entering a bear market that lasted almost a year.

从2017年12月到2018年初，XRP经历了一个显着的10倍集会，与比特币的峰值约为20,000美元，然后进入了持续了将近一年的熊市。

A similar near-vertical spike in XRP occurred in early 2021, marking the peak of another bull market in bitcoin. And XRP's surge of approximately 240% in late 2024 foreshadowed bitcoin's bull market peak above $109,000, followed by a decline below $80,000.

XRP的类似近垂直尖峰发生在2021年初，标志着比特币另一个牛市的顶峰。 XRP在2024年底的增长约为240％，预示了比特币的牛市峰值高于109,000美元，随后下降了80,000美元。

As the saying goes: "Once is happenstance, twice is a coincidence, and three times is a trend."

俗话说：“一旦偶然，两次是巧合，三次是一个趋势。”

The next time BTC is running hot, savvy traders may want to keep an eye on XRP for potential signals regarding the end of the bull run.

BTC下次运行热时，精明的交易者可能希望关注XRP，以了解有关牛头跑结束的潜在信号。
