🚨 BREAKING: SWIFT Goes With Ethereum L2 — Payments Narrative Shifts 🚨
This is a big one for global finance.
SWIFT has kicked off its 2025 cross-border payments pilot, and the tech powering it is Linea, an Ethereum Layer-2 built by ConsenSys.
Not XRP.
Not a legacy payments token.
👉 Ethereum L2 infrastructure.
And this isn’t small-scale. The pilot reportedly includes 30+ major banks, with names like JPMorgan, HSBC, and BNP Paribas involved. That’s serious institutional weight.
🔍 What’s the message here?
Traditional finance seems to be lining up behind infrastructure that’s fast, scalable, and ready for real-world use. This looks less like a test and more like adoption starting to take shape.
⚡ Why Ethereum L2 makes sense • High throughput
• Very low fees
• Easier integration for banks
• Deep support from the Ethereum ecosystem
🤔 So where does this leave XRP?
This could be a defining moment. The long-standing idea of XRP dominating global payments is facing real competition now. Whether XRP evolves, reclaims momentum, or loses ground — the next phase really matters.
📊 Market reaction (latest):
• XRP: 2.2539 (+10.49%)
• ETH: 2,940.02 (+5.45%)
• BTC: 87,965 (+1.57%)
A major shift may be unfolding — and smart money is clearly paying attention to what comes next.
