Crypto analyst JackTheRippler (@RippleXrpie) says the long-running debate around $XRP is essentially finished.
In his view, XRP’s role within the U.S. financial system is already settled — and the strongest evidence comes directly from the words of Donald Trump himself.
🏛️ The Trump Speech That Shifted the Narrative
On July 19, 2025, President Donald Trump addressed an event connected to the passage of the GENIUS Act. His remarks sent immediate ripples through the crypto space.
Trump acknowledged a reality rarely stated so openly by U.S. leaders:
“The technical backbone of the U.S. financial system is decades out of date.”
He went further, criticizing today’s payment and transfer systems as slow, costly, and inefficient — often taking days or even weeks to settle, something he described as unacceptable for a modern economy.
Then came the statement that truly stood out:
“Under this bill, the entire ancient system will be eligible for a 21st-century upgrade using state-of-the-art crypto technology.”
Just a few years ago, such language from a sitting U.S. president would have sounded unimaginable.
🔗 Why XRP Matches This Vision
This is where JackTheRippler draws the connection.
For years, Ripple has focused on fixing the same core problems Trump described:
Slow settlement times
High transaction fees
Obsolete banking infrastructure
XRP was designed specifically to address these issues.
Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, has repeatedly labeled the existing global payment system as broken — a stance that closely mirrors Trump’s own comments.
⏰ Why the Timing Raises Eyebrows
According to JackTheRippler, the sequence of events is especially telling:
Trump met with Ripple executives just days before the speech
Soon after, he publicly promoted crypto-driven financial infrastructure
Around the same time, XRP recorded an all-time high of $3.65
To him, this alignment isn’t random. He believes the meeting helped shape insights that later appeared — subtly but deliberately — in Trump’s public remarks.
🧠 “XRP Is Already Locked In”
When JackTheRippler calls XRP “a done deal,” he means more than speculation. In his view:
The course of U.S. financial reform is already defined
That course closely aligns with Ripple’s technology
XRP could serve as a foundational layer for next-generation payment systems
🚀 If Trump’s vision ultimately becomes official policy, XRP won’t be trying to gain adoption — it will simply be waiting for formal confirmation.
