Crypto commentator Dark Defender has returned to an analytical chart he shared on December 9 to restate his view on XRP’s current market position.
In his latest post, he argues that recent developments have unfolded in line with that earlier assessment, suggesting that XRP remains on a defined path along a long-term valuation curve. The update is presented not as a new prediction, but as confirmation that the sequence outlined weeks ago is progressing as expected.
Dark Defender maintains that the December post clearly identified where XRP stood at the time. According to his interpretation, the asset had already moved past an early phase of skepticism and was entering a period marked by growing recognition. He asserts that subsequent events have reinforced that view rather than challenged it.
Up next, "The Fellowship of the #XRP Phase".

Media Coverage as a Sequential Development
A key element of his commentary is the timing of media coverage. Dark Defender notes that increased reporting and public commentary emerged after the position on the curve had already been identified.
He presents this as a natural sequence rather than a catalyst, implying that visibility followed underlying market conditions instead of creating them. In his view, this order of events supports the accuracy of the original placement on the curve.
He also highlights the rise in questions from market participants seeking clarity on XRP’s status. These inquiries, he suggests, reflect a shift in awareness that aligns with the stage he previously described. The emphasis remains on confirmation rather than reaction, with Dark Defender stressing that observable developments continue to match the expectations set out in December.
Reference to Grok and External Confirmation
In an attempt to reinforce his point, Dark Defender tagged Grok, asking whether it agreed with recent interpretations regarding XRP’s position. The mention was intended as a reference point for those following related posts and discussions.
However, Grok did not respond to the inquiry. Dark Defender does not treat this absence as a setback; instead, he reiterates that his conclusions are based on market behavior and publicly visible signals rather than third-party endorsement.
The Approach of the “Fellowship of the XRP” Phase
Dark Defender connects the current situation directly to the language used in his December 9 post, where he stated that the next stage would be “The Fellowship of the XRP Phase.”

In his latest update, he suggests that this phase is now approaching, if not already beginning. He associates it with increased alignment between market conditions, public awareness, and institutional developments.
To support this perspective, he references recent comments from U.S. Comptroller of the Currency Jonathan Gould, who stated that it is time to embrace new digital asset entrants into banking.
Dark Defender interprets this statement as further evidence that institutional barriers are easing. In his assessment, such remarks strengthen the case that the transition he outlined weeks ago is already taking place, reinforcing his view that XRP is advancing along the curve exactly as anticipated.
