Crypto commentator X Finance Bull (@Xfinancebull) published a post tying a high-profile light display to long-held XRP market symbolism.
The post focused on the arrival of the New Year’s Eve numbers at Times Square. Intriguingly, the display for 2026 uses 589 bulbs to mark the arrival of the year in one of the world’s most visible public squares.
589 is a number widely associated with long-term XRP price expectations among investors. In the post, X Finance Bull wrote that the “XRP alignment is happening!” before adding, “They placed 589 bulbs in the most watched square on Earth to ring in 2026.” While he did not suggest official involvement from Ripple, he sees this as a symbolic moment for XRP.
WOW 🚨 $XRP alignment is happening!
They placed 589 bulbs in the most-watched square on Earth to ring in 2026.
Most saw lights. We saw alignment.$XRP isn’t asking for attention, it’s earning position.

The Importance of 589
The number 589 has circulated within the XRP community for years. Investors often reference it as a theoretical future valuation tied to global liquidity flows, cross-border settlement demand, and XRP’s fixed supply. It functions as a cultural marker rather than a near-term price forecast.
The post stated, “Most saw lights. We saw alignment.” The line positioned the display as meaningful only to those already familiar with XRP’s internal narratives. Some analysts have predicted that XRP can reach the $589 target in 2026, and this display could be a sign of things to come.
Position Over Attention
X Finance Bull’s message emphasized positioning rather than publicity. “XRP isn’t asking for attention, it’s earning position,” the post said. The statement suggested that XRP’s relevance comes from structural use cases rather than mere promotion.

XRP prioritizes functionality and is one of the most efficient blockchain networks in the market. Introducing this technology to the world could be a game-changer for global finance. Ripple has advertised XRP in Times Square in the past, but this subtle hint suggests that the reach is widening, and those heavily involved in the market can see the signs.
2026 as a Psychological Marker
The timing of the display played a key role in the post’s framing. X Finance Bull linked the 589 symbolism directly to the asset’s trajectory in 2026. “The internet of value doesn’t sleep, and it’s entering 2026 fully awake,” the analyst wrote.
He sees 2026 as a psychological milestone. Ripple is building the Internet of Value with XRP. X Finance Bull presented the moment as an affirmation that the $589 target is real and the message about XRP is spreading.
