The XRP community recently got into a Twitter argument with a well-known financial journalist, Charles Gasparino.
It all started with Gasparino posting a tweet that seemed like a playful joke. He imagined a pretend discussion at a conference about XRP mooning on QAnon-funded BlackRock ETF, making fun of the community’s tendency to make big predictions and believe in conspiracy theories.
Yes @Ripple and $XRP are world famous; #ETHGate is being discussed in Davos right now; the Pope has begun a prayer service for all the XRP holders who lost so much money as the priced crashed from $3; The White House has set up a task force… https://t.co/HPxfqR1F6A

The XRP community got excited about the possibility of a BlackRock XRP exchange-traded fund, but Gasparino brought them back to reality by questioning whether the CEO of BlackRock, Larry Fink, even understands XRP. This made XRP loyal supporters angry.
A Deep Divide
This isn’t the first time Gasparino has clashed with the XRP community. He has previously dismissed their conspiracy theories as “stupid” and called them a “cult,” which has made some people see him as an “enemy.”
This argument goes beyond personal animosity. It shows the conflict between traditional financial players and some parts of the cryptocurrency community. The unpredictable nature of cryptocurrency and the stories that go around it often clash with the cautious and skeptical approach of the traditional financial world.
Gasparino, known for being critical, represents the cautious point of view. He advises people to be careful and warns against believing in things without evidence. On the other hand, the XRP community embodies the boundless excitement that drives innovation and change in the cryptocurrency world.

And ultimately, it’s a reminder that progress often comes from disagreements. By learning to co-exist, the cryptocurrency community and traditional finance can work together to create a more inclusive digital future.
