$XRP A recent video shared on X by Black Swan Capitalist co-founder Versan Aljarrah has drawn attention to comments from Pierre Lassonde, the Canadian businessman and philanthropist known for his work in the mining and investment industries.
In the video, Lassonde discusses the growing accumulation of gold by central banks and the declining share of the U.S. dollar in global reserves.
His remarks suggest that a significant realignment in the world’s financial system is underway. This shift may eventually reshape how value is stored and transferred internationally, and Aljarrah believes XRP can play a major role.

👉Central Banks Expand Gold Holdings
Lassonde noted that central banks have bought around 1,200 tons of gold annually over the past three years, equal to about a third of new mine production. He said this has strengthened gold prices and reflected efforts by nations to back reserves with tangible assets. During this period, the dollar’s share of global reserves fell from about 72% to below 58%.
He identified China, India, Turkey, and Poland as key participants in this shift, noting that these nations prefer to hold reserves that are not tied to another country’s debt. Lassonde explained that gold’s attraction lies in its self-contained value, as it exists independently and does not represent an obligation issued by any government.
👉A Shift in the Monetary Landscape
Beyond the move into gold, Lassonde observed that China is developing an alternative to the SWIFT payment network, designed to reduce global reliance on U.S. financial infrastructure. XRP has been positioned for years as a viable alternative, and Lassonde said this effort is gaining “traction from countries in Africa, in India,” reflecting a shared desire for greater autonomy in international settlements.
Lassonde described this as evidence of “a new world order,” with nations seeking to move away from systems dominated by the U.S. He added that many countries “don’t like to be kicked in the shin” by current policies and are responding by creating their own economic frameworks.
👉The Bridge Between Physical and Digital Value
Versan Aljarrah connected Lassonde’s observations to the growing conversation around digital assets. He wrote that “gold is returning as the world’s reserve asset, replacing the dollar’s role,” and that the next phase is “its digitization.” Aljarrah suggested that this transition would bring XRP into focus as the bridge between physical and digital value.
As central banks accumulate gold and diversify away from the dollar, some analysts believe XRP will play a more prominent role in the infrastructure of global finance, connecting traditional reserves with tokenized value.

$XRP The XRP price could soar to new all-time highs if the Canary Capital CEO’s updated first-month target for XRP ETFs plays out.
Several major firms, including Grayscale, Canary Capital, 21Shares, and Bitwise, are now awaiting approval of their XRP ETF filings this month, October. Amid the anticipation, Canary Capital CEO Steve McClurg has updated his outlook, saying he now expects stronger performance than he first predicted.
✨Canary Capital CEO Updates XRP ETFs Target
McClurg had earlier projected that XRP ETFs would attract around $5 billion in inflows during their first month. However, during a recent interview on the Paul Barron Network, he said he now believes that forecast might have been “bearish.”
When Paul Barron asked if he still stood by his earlier target, McClurg explained that while he plans to hold on to the $5 billion figure, he also sees the potential for inflows to reach $10 billion. He noted that either way, his estimate would still hold up, whether it hits $5 billion or doubles that amount.
Barron pointed out that such numbers could make XRP ETFs some of the best-performing funds ever. In response, McClurg agreed, saying that inflows of that size could easily place them among the top 20 ETFs of all time, and possibly even in the top 10.
The Canary Capital CEO called the $10 billion target a safe bet. He highlighted his past experience launching Bitcoin futures with another firm, recalling that they brought in over $1 billion on their first day, which made them one of the top 10 ETF launches in history at the time.
✨XRP Price if This Plays Out
Notably, if XRP ETFs do manage to attract $10 billion in their first month, the impact on prices could be massive. This is due to the inflow-to-valuation multiplier. For the uninitiated, this is an effect where every dollar entering the market increases XRP’s market cap by a much larger amount.
Interestingly, market analyst Dom highlighted this in May when he found that just $61 million in inflows lifted XRP’s market cap by $16.6 billion. Remarkably, this translated to a ratio of roughly 272x.

For this analysis, even a fraction of that multiplier, say one-fifth, or 54.4 times, still suggests massive potential gains for the XRP price.
Using this estimate, $10 billion in ETF inflows could raise XRP’s market cap by around $544 billion. Currently, XRP has a market cap of about $180 billion and a trading price near $3. Considering this, an increase of $544 billion could push XRP’s valuation to roughly $724 billion.
Now, with a circulating supply of around 60 billion tokens, this $724 billion market cap would translate to a price of roughly $12 per XRP within the first month of ETF trading.
Although this projection relies on an ambitious inflow target, the 54.4x multiplier is actually very modest. Typically, XRP sees multipliers well into the hundreds during normal trading conditions. As a result, if the ETFs attract the level of attention McClurg expects, the XRP price could see one of the biggest surges in its history.
