🚀 SOL Soars Past $200, XRP Defends $3.5 as Altcoins Steal the Show – July 22, 2025 Crypto Rundown

Altcoins are flexing their muscles again—Solana blasts through $200 while XRP anchors at $3.50, leaving Bitcoin maximalists sweating into their laser-eyed avatars.

Solana’s breakout: SOL just punched above $200, proving its scalability narrative isn’t just hype (for once). Validators are celebrating—until the next network hiccup.

XRP’s stubborn grip: The ‘perpetually undervalued’ asset clings to $3.50 like a Wall Street intern clinging to their BlackBerry. SEC settlement? What SEC settlement?

Altseason alive and kicking: While TradFi bros argue about Fed rate cuts, crypto’s second-tier tokens are quietly eating Bitcoin’s lunch. Again.

*Bonus cynicism*: Meanwhile, goldbugs are still waiting for hyperinflation—and their ‘digital gold’ to behave like actual gold.
