A drawdown is a measured peak-to-trough price path. Overlapping events are research context, not proof of a single cause.

XRP-specific factors

Asset context

The canonical event catalog contains no XRP-specific event that can responsibly explain the complete move.

Market-wide factors

Contagion and regime context

The episode occurred in an early crypto market still absorbing exchange-failure and liquidity risk after Mt. Gox.

Recovery interpretation: Recovery means a completed UTC price observation met or exceeded the prior peak. It does not mean every holder recovered or that purchasing, custody, or tax outcomes were identical.

Returns describe coincident market behavior around a documented event. They do not prove that the event caused the move or exclude other XRP-specific, crypto-market, or macro factors.
