]]> XLM was sitting at $0.146 before DTCC confirmed Stellar as its first public blockchain partner. Within a few days, the price hit nearly $0.30. Investors who waited for confirmation missed the bulk of the move.

Crypto analyst X Finance Bull (@Xfinancebull) is pointing to XRP as the next asset in that position, and the infrastructure numbers he cites are hard to dismiss.

The Infrastructure Is Already There

The case for XRP does not rest on speculation alone. Ripple is already confirmed for DTCC’s 50-firm working group. Mastercard and JPMorgan have already settled tokenized Treasuries on the XRP Ledger, and a $13 trillion treasury platform is actively processing on the network.

$4 billion in tokenized assets are already deployed on XRPL, and seven ETFs are accumulating a combined $1.41 billion in XRP. That puts the XRP Ledger’s current infrastructure ahead of where Stellar stood before its DTCC announcement moved the price.

The Catalyst Has Not Arrived Yet

X Finance Bull identifies three potential triggers. DTCC could confirm XRP Ledger for tokenized securities. The CLARITY Act could get signed into law. Ripple’s Federal Reserve Master Account application could receive approval. Any one of these events could serve as the headline moment that reprices XRP in real time.

His argument is straightforward: markets do not wait. By the time a major institutional announcement is made public, positioned capital has already moved. The XLM move confirmed that, as the price responded the moment the news hit, with no meaningful dip, offering a second entry point.

A New Financial Era, Not a Normal Cycle

X Finance Bull’s broader argument goes beyond XRP’s price. In the video, he states that “we are entering a complete new financial era,” citing AI, automation, digital identity, tokenized assets, and machine-to-machine payments as the forces reshaping global finance.

His position is that legacy banking infrastructure cannot operate at the speed this new system demands, and that XRP was built specifically for that environment. He believes that XRP cannot be stopped from becoming the world’s bridge currency if it does what it’s meant to.

What Comes Next?

No confirmed date exists for any of the three catalysts X Finance Bull identifies. What does exist is a documented trail of institutional activity on the XRP Ledger that continues to grow. Investors watching the XLM move play out now have a direct comparison to weigh.

The infrastructure behind XRP’s potential catalyst is live, but the announcement is not. The gap between the two is where X Finance Bull says the opportunity currently lies.

]]> A DTCC participant document highlighted by crypto researcher SMQKE (@SMQKEDQG) has placed renewed focus on Ripple’s growing institutional presence.

The document says Hidden Road Partners CIV US LLC is among the approved DTCC participants. This detail is notable because Hidden Road now operates as Ripple Prime following Ripple’s $1.25 billion acquisition of the firm in 2025.

According to SMQKE, the listing confirms that Ripple Prime operates alongside Wall Street giants. The participant list places the Ripple-owned prime brokerage business within the same network used by some of the largest financial institutions worldwide, including J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Charles Schwab, HSBC, and Deutsche Bank.

Ripple Prime’s Connection to DTCC

DTCC serves as a key component of the U.S. financial market infrastructure. Its systems support the clearing, settlement, financing, and post-trade processing activities that help keep markets operating efficiently across multiple asset classes.

SMQKE noted that the institutions on the participant list “manage trillions in daily volume across equities, fixed income, repo, and financing operations through the DTCC’s infrastructure.” The researcher also stated that “a Ripple-controlled entity has been granted the same operational access as these finance giants.”

The Importance of Ripple’s Acquisition

At the time of the acquisition, Hidden Road already ranked among the largest non-bank prime brokers serving institutional clients across traditional finance and digital asset markets.

The firm’s services span clearing, financing, brokerage, foreign exchange, fixed income, derivatives, and digital assets. After the acquisition closed, Ripple rebranded the company as Ripple Prime and positioned it as a cornerstone of its institutional strategy.

That background makes the DTCC participant listing particularly important. Rather than building a new institutional business from scratch, Ripple acquired an established prime brokerage firm that already operated within major financial market networks.

Greater Access for XRP

The DTCC document does not mention XRP directly. However, Ripple has already outlined plans to integrate Ripple Prime more closely with its own technology ecosystem. The company previously stated that it intends to bring portions of post-trade activity onto the XRP Ledger. Ripple also announced plans to use RLUSD within institutional workflows connected to the business.

SMQKE believes Ripple Prime’s position within the DTCC infrastructure could support Ripple’s long-term institutional ambitions. He wrote that institutional clients can “execute, clear, and settle traditional securities through a platform rooted in Ripple technology.”

For XRP supporters, attention now shifts to how Ripple expands Ripple Prime’s operations and connects those services with its broader institutional strategy.

The DTCC participant listing provides another sign of Ripple’s growing presence inside established financial markets. SMQKE described it as “the path for XRP to truly reach quadrillions in scale through regulated, high-volume channels.”

]]> XRP has returned to a technical zone that has appeared only four times in its 13-year trading history. Crypto cycle researcher Cryptollica (@Cryptollica) highlighted a rare setup on XRP’s monthly chart, pointing to a deep reset in the Relative Strength Index (RSI) that previously coincided with major cycle turning points.

The analyst stated that XRP’s monthly RSI has reached a level it has visited just four times since 2013. He wrote, “The first three mattered. Now the fourth one is here,” while emphasizing that the signal appeared near significant market reset periods in the past.

XRP Revisits a Long-Term RSI Extreme

The chart shows XRP on the monthly timeframe alongside a monthly RSI indicator. According to the analysis, the current reading marks the fourth occasion that XRP’s RSI has entered what Cryptollica describes as a deep reset zone.

The previous instances occurred around major cycle lows and consolidation. Each was followed by extended recoveries that eventually led to substantial price appreciation.

The first occurred in 2017 before XRP’s historic rally. The second was in 2020, before the asset rose to $1.96 in 2021. Following that, XRP experienced another reset in 2022, giving way to a 500% surge at the end of 2024.

The RSI has now fallen to roughly 42, placing it back near the same region that marked prior cycle resets. Cryptollica summarized the rarity of the setup by stating, “Four oversold monthly resets in 13 years.”

XRP: Long-Term Structure Remains Intact

Beyond the RSI signal, the chart also highlights XRP trading within a large multi-year ascending channel. Since the major breakout in late 2017, its price has largely respected the channel’s boundaries through multiple market cycles.

The current pullback has brought XRP back toward the lower portion of that long-term structure. This support area has held during previous corrections. Several green markers on the chart identify historical support touches, while red markers highlight major swing highs.

XRP currently sits between those zones after retreating from its mid-2025 peak. The chart projects a potential move higher if the broader channel structure holds.

What the Chart Suggests Next

From a technical perspective, traders will likely watch two key factors in the months ahead. The first is whether the monthly RSI begins turning higher from its current reset zone. Previous visits to this region preceded extended recovery phases, making it a closely watched signal.

The second is XRP’s position within its long-term ascending channel. Holding above the lower trendline could keep the broader uptrend intact and support another move toward the channel’s upper regions.

]]> According to crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO (@egragcrypto), XRP entered June at a critical technical level. His latest chart places the asset at a major decision point where a move back above key trend indicators could transform current bearish sentiment into what he calls one of the largest bear traps of the cycle.

The analysis centers on XRP opening the month below its 50 EMA while sitting on a long-term macro support line that has influenced price action for years. With June historically producing weak performance during midterm years, the coming weeks could prove decisive for the asset’s next major move.

June Opens at a Critical Technical Level

EGRAG CRYPTO noted that XRP has started June below the 50 EMA during what he describes as a macro compression phase. According to his historical observations, similar conditions often coincide with extreme bearish sentiment as price begins forming a bottoming structure.

The monthly chart shows XRP trading near $1.29, directly around the white macro trend line that has acted as support through multiple cycles. Several previous touches of this trend line, highlighted on the chart, preceded substantial advances.

His zoomed-in chart focuses on the interaction between XRP’s price, the trend line, and a descending yellow resistance line that forms a falling wedge pattern. XRP remains compressed within that structure as monthly candles continue to narrow.

Historical June Performance Adds Context

EGRAG also highlighted XRP’s June performance during previous midterm years. The data he shared shows XRP declining 17% in June 2014, 39% in June 2018, and 32% in June 2022. With June 2026 now underway, he raised the question of whether the pattern will repeat.

In his assessment, sentiment remains heavily bearish as XRP trades below both the macro trend line and the 50 EMA. However, his chart suggests the current weakness may be occurring at a location that has historically attracted buyers.

What to Expect from XRP

The chart identifies $0.90 to $1.30 as the primary battleground. The lower boundary sits near a major support zone, while the upper boundary coincides with the trend line and the 50 EMA region that XRP needs to reclaim. The falling wedge resistance remains another obstacle that bulls must overcome.

EGRAG stated that “until we break out from the yellow falling wedge, then bottoming is forming.”  If that happens, he believes the current setup “could become one of the biggest bear traps of the cycle.”

The larger chart also includes Fibonacci extension targets above current prices, with projected levels extending toward $5.16, $6.27, $8.28, and $13.95 if a sustained breakout develops.

]]> The XRP community is not short on ambition. Price targets of $1,000, $10,000, and even $589,000 per token circulate regularly among its most vocal members.

These numbers sound extreme to outsiders. Inside the community, they represent something more structured: a long-term belief system that shapes how holders behave.

Crypto pundit Zach Rector addressed this directly in a recent video. He pointed to the range of price targets held across the community and noted that the debate over timing is secondary. “The conviction in the XRP community is unmatched,” he said. For many holders, that conviction drives a simple investment strategy of never selling XRP.

Rector Makes the Case for XRP

Rector acknowledged that a $1,000 XRP price sounds delusional to critics. He did not dismiss that reaction. Instead, he stated that the community’s belief system is what sets XRP apart from other assets.

He pointed to XRP’s performance after the November 2024 election as evidence, as the token gained 600%. Many interpreted that rally as a ceiling, but Rector disagrees. He said a large portion of the market is underestimating XRP’s potential and that many investors will get left behind as a result.

His position is that XRP will outperform the current cycle, as it did in the last one. The conviction behind the asset is the reason for that expectation.

The Community Responds

Reactor’s post drew a range of responses. Some pushed back on the price target entirely. One commenter argued that XRP’s tokenomics make a price above $4 impossible within the next four years.

Others questioned the consistency of Rector’s position. One pointed out that he had previously criticized Jake Claver for making similar price predictions, suggesting his current stance represents a reversal. Another commenter echoed that criticism, noting that Rector had previously attacked Claver but now appears to agree with.

Some responses engaged with the substance of XRP’s valuation. One commenter asked Rector to explain how the token’s utility would drive scarcity and demand before discussing conviction. Another said $1,000 is actually too low. One commenter offered a conditional view, stating that XRP needs to hit $2 before any larger speculative target is worth discussing.

What this Means for XRP Holders

The debate shows a community that takes long-term price targets seriously. Rector’s core message is that the conviction behind XRP is what drives its holders to stay in. Whether the targets are realistic is a separate question. The belief, he argues, is already shaping investor behavior.

]]> A piece of legislation moving through the U.S. Senate has crypto investors paying close attention. Crypto pundit John Squire (@TheCryptoSquire) made a direct claim to his followers, stating that the CLARITY Act will make a lot of people rich.

The post attracted a wave of responses from the crypto community, with opinions split on whether the bill is a catalyst for wealth or a threat to decentralization.

What Is the CLARITY Act?

The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act aims to define how digital assets are regulated in the U.S., including which tokens fall under the SEC and which markets fall under the CFTC. The latest version expanded from the January draft, adding new language on stablecoin rewards, insider trading, bankruptcy protections, and implementation timing.

The Senate Banking Committee advanced the CLARITY Act in a 15-9 bipartisan vote on May 14 after months of stalled progress. The vote was not without friction. Democrats offered amendments to address law enforcement concerns and an ethics provision. Elizabeth Warren proposed amendments that would harm XRP and other assets. However, most were voted down or ruled out of order.

The bill must now pass the full Senate, align with the House version, and receive the president’s signature. Markets reacted positively after the committee vote, with XRP reaching $1.54 for the first time since March. This bullish response and the bill’s positive impact on the crypto space prompted Squire and many others to believe the CLARITY Act will make many XRP investors rich.

What the Community Is Saying

Reactions to Squire’s post were mixed. Kenny Nguyen, another well-respected pundit, agreed with the claim outright, calling it fact. Another commenter pushed back, arguing that the bill’s real beneficiaries will be lawyers and compliance consultants, not builders.

One commenter questioned whether Squire and others were ignoring the bill’s potential downsides. He specifically highlighted the risk that crypto moves from a decentralized model to one controlled by banks.

Another echoed that concern, saying the entire premise of digital currency is decentralization, and that centralized bank control defeats its purpose.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong initially pushed against certain parts of the bill, but he was heavily criticized. The rest of the industry has now come to a consensus. The CLARITY Act has momentum. Whether it delivers the wealth Squire predicts depends on what parts of the bill survive the full Senate.

]]> As financial institutions explore blockchain technology for cross-border payments and digital asset settlement, attention is on the early experiments that helped shape the industry’s understanding of distributed ledger technology.

A recent tweet from crypto researcher SMQKE has brought one of those early efforts back into focus, highlighting comments from a SWIFT webinar that confirmed the organization evaluated several blockchain networks, including those associated with XRP and XLM, during its initial research phase.

The post has attracted interest among cryptocurrency supporters because it revisits a period when SWIFT, one of the world’s most influential financial messaging networks, was actively examining how emerging blockchain solutions could fit into the future of global payments.

SMQKE Highlights SWIFT’s Early Blockchain Experiments

Crypto researcher SMQKE shared a clip from a SWIFT webinar on X and wrote, “Remember: XRP and XLM were already tested.”

The video included remarks from a SWIFT representative who discussed the organization’s early blockchain research. According to the speaker, approximately 45 to 50 commercial banks participated in discussions examining what blockchain technology could offer the financial sector.

The representative explained that SWIFT’s experimentation around 2015 focused on distributed ledger platforms that were available at the time. Those evaluations included Bitcoin, Ethereum, Stellar, Ripple, and several other blockchain-based solutions. The speaker also cited Project Genesis as one of the early initiatives connected to those efforts.

What the Testing Signified

The webinar comments confirm that technologies linked to XRP and XLM were among the platforms reviewed during SWIFT’s initial efforts to understand distributed ledger technology and its potential applications in financial services.

However, the testing should be viewed within the context of research and experimentation rather than deployment. SWIFT examined multiple blockchain networks as part of a broader effort to evaluate the strengths and limitations of emerging technologies.

While the comments demonstrate that Ripple-related technology and Stellar were considered during the research phase, they do not indicate that SWIFT adopted either network to replace its existing infrastructure.

Community Debate Over Ripple, XRP, and Global Payment Systems

The post prompted discussion among community members about the webinar’s significance and the role blockchain technology has played in modern payment systems.

One commenter, Luis Fintech, argued that SWIFT’s testing of Ripple and Stellar was “old news,” adding that the United Arab Emirates had already demonstrated the effectiveness of blockchain-based payment infrastructure.

That assessment is partially supported by developments such as Project Aber and the mBridge initiative, both of which involved distributed ledger technology for cross-border settlements.

These projects showed that international transactions could be processed much faster than traditional correspondent banking systems. However, they did not simply replace SWIFT with the public XRP Ledger or Stellar network. Instead, they relied on institution-focused and sovereign digital payment frameworks.

For many supporters of XRP and XLM, the webinar serves as confirmation that both ecosystems were part of SWIFT’s early blockchain evaluations, a fact that continues to generate interest as financial institutions expand their exploration of digital asset technologies.

]]> Market sentiment and price performance often influence how investors view digital assets, but XRP Ledger validator Vet believes the current environment presents a different kind of challenge.

In a post on X, Vet argued that while sentiment surrounding XRP may be weak, the asset’s underlying fundamentals continue to improve. According to him, this period is testing whether investors remain committed to the fundamentals behind XRP and the XRP Ledger ecosystem.

His comments come at a time when many market participants are debating whether technological progress and infrastructure development will eventually translate into greater adoption and stronger market performance.

In the X post, Vet wrote that “sentiment down, fundamentals up,” suggesting that negative market attitudes do not necessarily reflect the progress taking place behind the scenes. He added that this is the moment when investors’ convictions are being tested and maintained that the developments achieved over the past several months, along with initiatives expected later this year, will position XRP for future success.

Focus on DeFi Growth and Financial Infrastructure

A key part of Vet’s argument centered on the XRP Ledger’s evolving capabilities. He stated that the network’s increasing resilience and expanding functionality are helping build the foundation for a future in which decentralized finance can compete more directly with traditional financial systems.

The validator pointed to ongoing development efforts as evidence that the ecosystem is becoming more capable and adaptable. While he did not specify individual upgrades in the post, his comments reflected confidence that recent advancements are strengthening the XRP Ledger’s long-term utility.

Vet’s remarks emphasized fundamentals rather than short-term price movements. His position suggests that infrastructure growth, network improvements, and expanding use cases remain the primary factors supporting his outlook for XRP.

Community Responses Highlight Ongoing Debate

The post received mixed reactions from members of the crypto community, illustrating the differing views that continue to surround XRP.

One user, identified as bear grylls brother, questioned the significance of ongoing development efforts, saying that XRP has been building for decades without achieving the level of utilization supporters have long anticipated. The user suggested that broader adoption should have occurred much earlier if the technology was as impactful as advocates claim.

Another user, Fish, criticized the investment narrative around XRP. He cited ongoing concerns among some market participants about tokens sold by Ripple.

Supportive responses also appeared beneath the post. A user named Lorena stated that many investors have yet to acknowledge the significance of XRP’s progress. She expressed confidence that long-term holders could eventually benefit from that development.

Meanwhile, another user, ZydrA, challenged the idea that strong fundamentals automatically lead to positive outcomes. The commenter questioned what happens if improvements fail to generate meaningful market results, raising concerns about whether investors could continue to rely on the same thesis indefinitely.

The exchange reflects a divide within the XRP community. While supporters point to continued ecosystem development, network upgrades, and future initiatives as reasons for optimism, critics remain focused on adoption rates and tangible outcomes. Vet’s post highlighted the contrast, arguing that the current period is less about market sentiment and more about whether investors still believe in XRP’s long-term trajectory.

The post Finance Coach Says a Win for XLM Is a Win for XRP. Here’s why appeared first on Times Tabloid.

]]> Financial educator Coach JV recently urged cryptocurrency investors to move beyond rivalry between digital assets, arguing that progress for Stellar (XLM) should be viewed as positive for XRP and the broader blockchain industry.

Coach JV addressed what he described as misconceptions among some market participants who view the success of one blockchain project as a threat to another. He stated that investors who are new to the sector should stop believing the notion that XLM and XRP are competing in a way that requires one to lose for the other to succeed.

According to Coach JV, the future financial system will not rely on a single company, blockchain, or technology. Instead, he argued that multiple networks and platforms will contribute to the development of next-generation financial infrastructure. His comments came amid ongoing conversations within the cryptocurrency community regarding the growing adoption of blockchain-based payment and tokenization solutions.

Adoption Across the Industry Strengthens the Entire Sector

A central theme of Coach JV’s message was that every major partnership, adoption announcement, and real-world implementation contributes to the credibility of the digital asset industry as a whole.

He argued that increased institutional participation and practical use cases help validate blockchain technology beyond individual projects. In his view, developments involving one network can increase confidence in the wider market by demonstrating that blockchain solutions are gaining traction in traditional finance and other sectors.

Coach JV contrasted what he called “emotional investors” with “educated investors.” He suggested that emotional investors focus on choosing sides between projects, as informed investors pay closer attention to the infrastructure being built and the role different technologies may play within that framework.

He concluded his message by encouraging followers to ignore short-term noise and take a broader perspective on the long-term development of digital assets.

Community Members Echo Support for Multi-Asset Growth

Several users responding to the post agreed with Coach JV’s position.

Crypto community member Elmer T Crypto stated that he has long viewed XLM and XRP as complementary rather than competing assets. He wrote that it has “always been XLM and XRP,” adding that it does not matter which asset moves first because investors can choose to hold both.

Another commenter, Buratino, described Coach JV’s view as the correct interpretation of the situation. He argued that cryptocurrency tribalism resembles sports-team loyalty, except with financial consequences attached to investment decisions.

Meanwhile, Tony focused on recent developments involving blockchain adoption and tokenization initiatives. He argued that many investors overlook key details contained in reports and announcements.

According to Tony, the Stellar network is expected to begin a particular implementation phase in 2027, while tokenization initiatives are scheduled to begin earlier, with a soft launch in July 2026 and broader implementation planned for October.

Tony further claimed that Stellar is not intended to be the sole blockchain solution but rather one of several networks expected to be utilized. He also pointed to previously released documents that he said indicate a connection between the DTCC and the XRP Ledger, reinforcing his belief that multiple blockchain platforms will play important roles in future financial infrastructure.

Overall, Coach JV’s message emphasized cooperation rather than competition, presenting blockchain adoption as a development that can benefit the entire digital asset ecosystem rather than a single project.

]]> Crypto commentator John Squire has attracted attention within the XRP community after sharing a tweet encouraging investors to consider buying XRP before any potential announcement involving Apple.

The post was accompanied by a video in which Squire explained his reasoning, emphasizing the importance of identifying opportunities before major news events become public.

In the post, Squire stated, “Buy XRP before Apple announces it.” While the message was brief, the attached video provided additional context on his perspective on investing and the role he believes anticipation can play in market performance.

Squire Explains His Investment Approach

In the video attached to the post, Squire addressed a question he said he receives frequently regarding why someone might choose to buy XRP before any announcement from a major technology company such as Apple.

According to Squire, some of the largest gains in financial markets often occur before widely anticipated news becomes public. He argued that investors who identify potential opportunities ahead of official announcements may position themselves more effectively than those who wait for confirmation.

He noted that when a company as large as Apple announces a new technology, partnership, or integration, market reactions can occur within minutes. As a result, he believes that a substantial portion of any price movement may already have taken place by the time the broader market responds to the news.

Squire clarified that his position is not based on any expectation that Apple will specifically launch XRP or formally announce support for the digital asset. He also stated that he does not possess insider information regarding Apple or any plans involving blockchain technology.

Instead, he said his interest in XRP comes from what he views as the possibility that large global corporations could eventually adopt technologies connected to blockchain infrastructure, digital assets, and related financial systems. In his view, XRP could potentially benefit if such developments occur in the future.

Community Members Question the Claim

The post quickly generated responses from community members, with some expressing concern about the implications of linking XRP to a potential Apple announcement without supporting evidence.

One commenter, Altcoin, argued that posts of this nature can be harmful to the XRP community when they are not based on credible sources. The commenter warned that creating expectations around unconfirmed developments could ultimately lead to disappointment among investors.

Another user, OnlySats, took a more critical stance. The commenter accused Squire of giving people false hope and questioned why he continues to promote XRP. The response also suggested that discussions should focus on actual market performance rather than speculative narratives.

Supporters Point to Potential Payment Industry Connections

Not all reactions were negative. Some community members expressed support for Squire’s outlook and argued that the idea should not be dismissed outright.

One commenter, Lily Harris, suggested that Apple’s move into digital payments or stablecoins could require fast and compliant transaction infrastructure. According to Harris, XRP is already positioned as a blockchain-based payment solution, making any future connection between Apple and digital asset infrastructure potentially significant.

While no evidence has emerged indicating that Apple plans to integrate XRP or announce any related initiative, Squire’s post reflects a viewpoint held by some investors who prefer to position themselves ahead of potential developments rather than wait for official confirmation.
