XRP is 60% off its 2025 high but we've seen $3B in RWAs landed in 30 days, $1.35B in ETF inflows & 332K wallets at an all-time accumulation record
1/20🧵
a firm managing $800M+ just quietly added XRP to their portfolio 👀
Sloy Dahl & Holst U.S. wealth advisers holding Bitcoin ETFs, Nvidia, Tesla…
and now Bitwise XRP ETF ⏳
when the people managing other people's money start buying XRP what's your excuse for sitting out? $XRP
Ondo, Kinexys by @jpmorgan, @Mastercard, & @Ripple successfully completed a landmark pilot transaction connecting the XRP ledger with interbank settlement rails.
This milestone marks the first time tokenized U.S. Treasuries have settled across borders and banks in near real time and outside traditional banking windows.
1. Ondo processed Ripple’s OUSG redemption on XRP Ledger
2. Mastercard's Multi-Token Network routed instructions to Kinexys by J.P. Morgan
3. J.P. Morgan delivered USD to Ripple's Singapore bank account
Tokenized assets are no longer separate from the global financial system. For the first time, a public blockchain and global banking infrastructure settled a cross-border transaction of a tokenized fund together in real time.
Together, we’re laying the groundwork for 24/7 global markets that never close.
XRP used $73,000 in electricity to run the entire network for 1 year.
Bitcoin used $8,000,000,000 - $12,000,000,000 in electricity to run the entire network for 1year. (Industrial electricity rate, not residential)
On per transaction basis this results in $0.0000028 per XRP Tx and $50-$80 per BTC Tx.
@Matt_Pinner 850k invested at 10%. 5% reinvestment 5% income, sure gives you freedom to do what you want, doing what you want is in my opinion life changing. So yes.
XRP is the "North Star" for Ripple ✨

SOL ETF would attract $3 billion to $6 billion, while an XRP ETF would garner $4 billion to $8 billion in new investments.

🚨NEW: @CanaryFunds has filed its Form 8-A. This is the final step before it goes effective at 5:30 PM ET Wednesday once the Nasdaq certifies the listing. When that happens, the last hurdle is cleared and the first $XRP spot ETF will be set to launch Thursday at market open.
I know no one wants to hear bullish ideas and everyone is scared and wants to fling poo at each other... but the Road to Valhalla is getting very close.
If global liquidity is the single most dominant macro factor then we MUST focus on that.
REMEMBER - THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN IS ROLLING $10TRN IN DEBT. EVERYTHING ELSE IS A SIDESHOW. THIS IS THE GAME OF THE NEXT 12 MONTHS.
Currently the gov shutdown has forced a sharp tightening of liquidity as the TGA builds up with no where to spend it.
This is not offset by the ability to drain the Reverse Repo (it is drained). And QT drains it further.
This is hitting markets and in particular crypto which is the most liquidity driven. TradiFi asset managers have had one of their worst years of performance vs benchmark and are now having to chase markets and that is allowing tech to be more stable than crypto. 401K flows help too. If this liquidity drain keeps going longer, stocks will get hit hard too.
However...
As soon as the gov shutdown ends, the Treasury begins spending $250bn to $350bn in a couple of months. QT ends and the balance sheet technically expands.
The Dollar will likely begin to weaken again as liquidity begins to flow. Tariff negiotiations will have largely been completed, removing uncertainty
Ongoing bill issuance increases, adding more liquidity via bank balance sheets and money market funds (and stable coins).
Ongoing rate cuts (we will have economic weakness from the shutdown that will add to the evidence that rates need to come lower but no, there is no recession)..
SLR changes free up more of the banks balance sheets allowing for credit expansion.
The CLARITY ACT will get passed, giving the crypto regs so deserately needed for large scale adoption by banks, asset managers and businesses overall.
The Big Beautiful Bill then kicks in to goose the economy into the midterms. The entire system is now being geared toward a strong economy and strong market in 2026 for these elections.
China will continue to expand its balance sheet. Japan will work to strenghten the Yen, and also fiscally stimulate.
The ISM will rise as rates fall and tarrif uncertainty drops away.
You just need to get through the Window of Pain and The Liquidity Flood lies ahead.
Always remember the Dont Fuck This Up rules...and wait out the volatility. Drawdowns like this are common place in bull markets and their job is to test your faith.
BTFD if you can.
td:dr - When this number goes up, all number go up.
🧵 The Mystery of $XRP Escrow 🔒
Most people in crypto think they know what Ripple’s escrow is.
Few actually understand it.
