"XRP pessimists were wrong"...Ripple's 'infrastructure', excessively underestimated

▲ XRP

An analysis suggests that the pessimism surrounding XRP is excessively underestimating the actual expansion of infrastructure and the trend of adoption by financial institutions.

NewsBTC reported on May 5 (local time) that crypto researcher SMQKE shared a video of a Crypto Valley panel held in Zurich, Switzerland, reigniting the debate over XRP's utility value. XRP supporter Tony mentioned this content, arguing that pessimists would ultimately be proven wrong.

Tania Griffith, Ripple's Director of Sales, who attended the panel, explained that banks and financial institutions are increasingly comfortable adopting cryptocurrency and blockchain-based infrastructure in the payments sector. She stated that in the past, they relied on a few exchanges and limited liquidity, but now Ripple has built a network encompassing global liquidity providers, stablecoins, and major financial infrastructure companies.

Griffith emphasized that this structure enables larger-scale payments and better foreign exchange rates. In particular, Ripple's system supports 24/7 real-time payments, which was presented as a feature that existing cross-border payment infrastructure could not provide.

NewsBTC conveyed that XRP's bullish argument is not based on simple price expectations but on adoption metrics and infrastructure expansion. While pessimism has focused on price trends and regulatory uncertainties, as Ripple's infrastructure expands, the assessment that XRP is becoming a liquidity layer supporting value transfer between financial institutions is gaining traction.

Although the short-term price trend remains stagnant, the fact that Ripple is expanding its blockchain infrastructure in a way that complements rather than replaces the existing financial system is emerging as a key long-term variable.
