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

▲ XRP

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

NewsBTC reported on May 5 (local time) that cryptocurrency 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 eventually be proven wrong.

Tania Griffith, Ripple's Director of Sales, who attended the panel, explained that banks and financial institutions are becoming increasingly comfortable adopting cryptocurrency and blockchain-based infrastructure in the payments sector. She stated that while they previously relied on a few exchanges and limited liquidity, Ripple has now 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 not offered by existing cross-border payment infrastructure.

NewsBTC reported that the bullish case for XRP 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 establishing itself as a liquidity layer supporting value movement between financial institutions is gaining traction.

Although short-term price movements have stalled, 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.
