🚨 JUST IN: Chinese investors are using crypto tokens to slip past Beijing's capital controls. 🇨🇳
You can wall off a currency. You can't wall off a token.
And the tokenized stock boom already has a settlement layer: the $XRP Ledger.
The capital is moving. The rails are ready.
🚨 JUST IN: $XRP now has a legal definition in three of the world's biggest jurisdictions.
🇺🇸 United States: digital commodity, SEC and CFTC joint release
🇯🇵 Japan: financial product under the FIEA
🇷🇺 Russia: legal property for commercial and cross border use
Two of those landed in the last four months.
Add 🇧🇹 Bhutan, 🇬🇪 Georgia, 🇲🇪 Montenegro and 🇵🇼 Palau building national currencies on #Ripple's platform.
Everybody's writing it into law.
🚨 JUST IN: Every $XRP Ledger wallet permanently locks 1 XRP to exist. There are 8 million of them.
Now run the math on humanity.
If every person on Earth had one #XRPL wallet, that's 8.2 BILLION $XRP locked forever.
Nearly 14% of circulating supply, gone.
Today we're at 0.1% of that.
Adoption doesn't just create demand on the XRPL.
It destroys supply.
🚨 JUST IN: China just killed retail paper gold, and it points straight at the $XRP Ledger. 🇨🇳
ICBC and four more major banks stopped offering it after settlement on July 24. Clients were told to close out or take physical delivery.
Paper claims are dead. Verifiable ownership is what wins.
That's exactly what the $XRP Ledger was built for: real assets, on chain, settling 24/7 in 3 to 5 seconds for fractions of a cent.
Tokenized gold is already live on it.
The world just decided claims aren't enough. The #XRPL is where proof lives.
The Clarity Act is ready for a full Senate floor vote.
The bill represents a true bipartisan compromise with thousands of hours of work on both sides, and it couldn't come at a better time. The status quo in the U.S. isn't working. There's no federal framework, so bad actors like FTX can harm U.S. customers and much of the industry has gone offshore totally outside U.S. purview. This bill fixes that with strong consumer protections, real tools for law enforcement, and a path for America to lead in this industry.
Crypto can't be uninvented at this point, so whether you love crypto or hate crypto, you should want clear federal laws. And it's also simply good politics: 70% of American voters say the U.S. should have already passed comprehensive crypto legislation.
Let's finish this!
Special thanks to the @standwithcrypto members who sent 950k contacts to their representatives in congress. Keep it up.
The U.S. House passes the roughly $1.2T National Defense Authorization Act authorizing nearly 30% more defense spending.

🔥 UPDATE: XRP whales have accumulated 2.8% more coins over five weeks as the price rebounds above $1.16, while small retail wallets have been dumping, per Santiment.
$ONDS won a $6.9M Australian DoD order for single-operator counter-drone kits through HIFraser.

$ONDS
Analyst price targets currently range from $19 to $25.
The current price is $6.53.
You don’t have to be a genius to recognize that $ONDS could be worth significantly more than $6.
In addition, we called this deeper correction back in June.
$ONDS has now almost reached the 0.5 retracement at $6.14.
I consider the zone between $6.14 and $4.82 the most likely area for a bullish trend reversal.
At current levels, $ONDS is definitely one to watch.
Don’t give in to FOMO—just wait and see what the next two weeks bring.
