Who Really Benefits from Suppressing XRP’s Price?
XRP isn’t just a coin. It’s infrastructure.
And infrastructure doesn’t moon — until the elites finish building on it.
If you’ve ever wondered why XRP stays suppressed while the system quietly plugs it in…
This thread is for you.
1/ Let’s start with this: XRP is the only asset threatening every middleman in finance.
• No pre-funding
• Instant cross-border settlement
• Built-in DEX
• Tokenization-ready
• ESG-compliant
• ISO 20022-native
That doesn’t make it a meme coin.
It makes it a threat to:
• Banks
• Liquidity providers
• SWIFT
• FX desks
• Correspondent banking
• Even stablecoin issuers
2/ Who benefits from a cheap XRP?
The same institutions quietly accumulating it.
They don’t want you holding it before the rails go live.
They want:
• Cheap liquidity
• Low ODL costs
• Regulatory deniability
• And control before public speculation kicks in
Keep the price low = keep public interest low.
Meanwhile, the pipes are being built.
3/ Ever wonder why XRP is one of the few coins with real utility… and constant suppression?
It’s not an accident.
It’s design.
• ETFs for coins with no settlement use
• Price pumps for coins with memetic power
• Silence for the coin that replaces SWIFT
They call it “uncertainty.”
But behind the scenes?
Central banks, fintechs, and CBDC pilots are testing XRP rails.
4/ The perfect suppression weapon? Legal fog.
The SEC lawsuit?
Perfect cover to keep retail away for years — while Ripple signs deals with:
• The UK, UAE, Singapore
• Palau
• Digital Pound Foundation
• Over 40+ global financial institutions
Lawsuits give institutions time.
Retail panic = discounted accumulation.
5/ So who gains the most?
1.Central banks — building CBDCs on or bridged via XRPL
2.Private liquidity providers — using cheap XRP for On-Demand Liquidity
3. Global payment processors — who need scalability without volatility
4.Legacy institutions — who fear XRP becoming retail-dominated
