@BankerWeimar The outcome of that action would propel the price of gold into 5-digit territory in my opinion.
Why “wont” it matter if it happens?
Do you think it wont have any effect on the price?
If gold is revalued as me and my colleagues have said, why wont we be considered “right?”
Trump and Bessent likely will revalue gold to like the market price or some proxy… or just go to market valuation constantly like many nations do.
This won’t actually matter but many here will act like it does… and that they were somehow right.
Decoupling is a long-term geopolitical event, not a short-term chart pattern. It will happen when $XRP becomes a strategic necessity on the global stage, and we’re still early in that process.
Here's a short list of deflationary scares, that turned out to be great buying opportunities for #gold and #silver:
1. COVID 19 - industry was shut down and the world was supposedly ending. Gold dropped by 15% and silver by a whopping 38% (cause it's an industrial metal, dontcha know?). Five months later, they recovered completely and gold hit a new all time high.
2. Fed fighting inflation - in 2022, Jerome Powell finally acknowledged that inflation wasn't transitory, and started hiking rates aggressively. Gold and silver again sold off. Gold lost 22% and silver 33%. They both recovered by the end of the year, and although it took them till 2024 to take off, it was the last opportunity to buy silver below $20 (which I took advantage of, I'm proud to say).
3. Liberation day - On April 2025 everyone was running around with their hair on fire due to Trump's tariff declaration. Gold dropped by about 6% and ended the month at a new high. Silver dropped by 18%, and that launched a rally that over the next 9 months took it 320% higher.
We again have a deflationary scare, this time over the war in Iran, rising bond yields and the potential implosion of the AI bubble. So what do you think? Is this a reason to sell your silver, or yet another buying opportunity?
Public got misled that war, inflation and geopolitical instability is bad for precious metals. One could push nonsense for some time, but eventually reasoning and logic always takes over.
Eventually, precious metals are going to rip higher ignoring misleading news and BS...

🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵 thread $XRP
🚨I told you…BOA XRP announcement is incoming. Told you awhile ago🚨
Remi Knows 🫵👍…months and weeks in advance. Maybe now the haters can go kick rocks and leave us future XRP millionaires alone.
Always giving you the heads up with as much time as possible to pay your bills and invest.
I still believe 💯 in a $1200-$1700 XRP…and I pray for it for all of us. It’s been a long rough road. God will deliver. God is Good 👍
서브웨이가 리플로 운영된다고 해서
XRP로 결제를 받는 게 아니다.
소비자는 여전히 카드로 샌드위치를 산다.
리플의 자회사 GTreasure 와
서브웨이의 계약 이야기다.
근데 그게 핵심이 아니다.
Ripple Treasury가 지금 관리하는
글로벌 결제 볼륨은 연간 $13조다.
서브웨이 포함 1,000개 이상의 기업이
이 인프라 위에 올라타 있다.
그리고 현재 이 $13조 중
크립토 레일로 처리되는 비율은 0%다.
근데 크립토 레일로 처리되는 게 0%면
리플은 뭘 먹고 사는 건가.
정확한 질문이다.
지금 Ripple Treasury는
소프트웨어 회사다.
서브웨이 포함 1,000개 이상의 기업이
매달 구독료를 내고 쓰는
기업 재무관리 플랫폼이다.
연간 $13조 결제 볼륨.
전부 기존 은행 레일로 흐른다.
XRP도 RLUSD도 아직 안 썼다.
근데 Ripple이 이걸 10억 달러에 산 이유가 있다.
CFO들이 매일 여는 소프트웨어 안에
디지털 자산 계좌를 얹었다.
새 플랫폼으로 갈아타라고
설득할 필요가 없다.
이미 신뢰하는 툴 안에서
자연스럽게 XRP와 RLUSD가 보이기 시작한다.
크립토 레일로 처리되는 비율이
지금은 0%다.
파이프는 이미 연결됐다.
물이 언제 흐르기 시작하느냐만 남았다.
1%만 움직여도
연간 $1,250억 온체인 볼륨이 생긴다.
Those that are panicked in today's $2.13 Trillion Crypto Market must not have been there in the 2019 Crypto Winter. I was there. There was not Congress working on crypto legislation. There was not White House, CFTC, SEC, OCC, FED all working towards making the US the crypto capital of the world. All we had back then was a government trying to kill crypto. The entire market cap got as low as almost $100 Billion.
At that time we didn't even know if it would exist.
I buy the XRP dips because I've seen fear. I've felt it. This is not fear. This is opportunity. Don't F It Up! Lock In! (Not Financial Advice)
Still bearish on $XRP long term? Let me remind you that South Korea, one of the deepest crypto markets on earth, is trading more XRP than Bitcoin.
AND IT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE
Upbit, South Korea's largest exchange controlling 70% of the country's crypto market, crowned XRP as its most traded digital asset for all of 2025.
Over $1 trillion in XRP volume on a single exchange. Peak day: $1.22 billion.
13.26 million Upbit users in a country of 51 million. One in four South Koreans on the platform.
XRP capturing 15-22% of daily trading volume consistently. Outperforming Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The trend continued into 2026. On May 13, XRP hit $110.9M in 24-hour volume on Upbit.
Bitcoin: $88.6M.
Ethereum: $67M.
XRP topped both on the same day. Again.
Evernorth CEO just confirmed what the data showed.
At Bitcoin Seoul this week, one of the most-traded coins wasn't Bitcoin. It was XRP.
Now the institutional layer is arriving.
Mirae Asset, one of Korea's largest investment banks, reportedly acquired a 20% stake in Korbit exchange.
Hana, another major institution, is reportedly moving on Upbit.
The incumbents aren't building around crypto. They're buying into the infrastructure directly.
25 million South Korean crypto investors. No futures. No leverage. Spot only.
These are real buyers accumulating real tokens because they believe in real utility.
And the conversation at Bitcoin Seoul shifted from "what coin do you hold" to "what can your chain actually settle."
Tokenization panels dominated the floor. Ondo on tokenized treasuries. SBI on tokenized assets.
The institutions are deciding which infrastructure to build on.
South Korea answered that question with $1 trillion in XRP volume last year alone.
The rest of the world is catching up.
