Top XRP Proponent Says XRP holders Are Incredibly Lucky with Latest Development

Recent developments within the Flare ecosystem, particularly the upcoming FAssets project, have provided some reasons for optimism among XRP holders. This project aims to introduce smart contract functionalities to XRP, potentially unlocking new avenues for the cryptocurrency.

In January 2021, amid a bearish market with XRP trading at $0.24, a significant drop from previous highs, Crypto Eri (@sentosumosaba), a prominent figure within the XRP community, expressed her belief in the token’s long-term potential.

While acknowledging the prevailing market conditions, Crypto Eri emphasized the ongoing innovation within the XRP ecosystem, specifically citing the launch of Flare (FLR) token IOU trading on the Bitrue exchange. This event allowed XRP holders to participate in the anticipation surrounding the FLR token, even before its official airdrop.

FAssets: A Potential Game Changer

Crypto Eri recently reiterated her optimistic stance on XRP by calling the XRP community incredibly lucky and highlighting the introduction of FAssets as a significant development.

This project, currently undergoing private beta testing, aims to bridge the gap by enabling smart contract functionality for assets like XRP, which do not natively support them. This capability has the potential to unlock a vast array of possibilities for the XRP ecosystem.

It will also bring XRP to the same level as its competitors, as the digital asset received some criticism when Stellar (XLM) recently unveiled its first smart contract.

Enhancing the XRP Ecosystem

The Flare team recently presented three governance proposals focused on bolstering various aspects of development, with one proposal specifically targeting the fortification of the state connector on Songbird, a key component for FAssets. Industry experts anticipate that FAssets could significantly benefit the XRP ecosystem by:

Unlocking Value: According to a Flare team presentation in December 2023, FAssets has the potential to unlock the value of over $800 billion in crypto assets, including prominent names like Bitcoin (BTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), and XRP.

Earning Potential: Flare Labs, the development team behind FAssets, indicated in December 2023 that the project could enable XRP holders to earn yield on their holdings or leverage LayerCake for cross-network bridging capabilities. These functionalities could provide compelling reasons for investors to hold XRP.

The ongoing development of FAssets and the optimism within the XRP community paint a promising picture for the asset’s future. The XRP and Flare Network integration is closer than ever, and its potential to unlock new functionalities and use cases for XRP has captured the community’s attention.
