Crypto pundit X Finance Bull has highlighted that XRP’s use case extends beyond payments, with a focus on tokenization. This comes as experts such as Canary Capital CEO Steven McClurg have predicted that the altcoin will be the token of choice for real-world assets (RWAs) tokenization.
How XRP’s Utility Extends Beyond Payments
In an X post, X Finance Bull drew attention to how XRP’s utility extends beyond payments, alluding to $110 million in tokenized diamonds transactions that were settled on the XRP Ledger. The pundit noted that five diamond collections were tokenized on the network through Ctrl Alt.
He further remarked that the Ledger is expanding beyond cross-border payments into full RWA tokenization, with XRP, as the network’s native token, being used to settle these tokenized transactions. X Finance Bull added that the playbook is to build the payments infrastructure first, then tokenized assets second, and finally the full financial rails third.
The crypto pundit declared that the network will be used to settle all types of transactions, aligning with predictions that the altcoin could become the backbone of global finance. Thanks to its expanded utility, X Finance Bull also noted that the narrative that the Ledger is just about payments is officially outdated.
It is worth noting that prior to X Finance Bull’s revelation, Canary Capital’s CEO predicted that the token would dominate the RWA industry, which is projected to become a trillion-dollar industry at some point. He made the prediction based on Ripple’s moves over the last two years and how the crypto firm has integrated the Ledger into many Wall Street transactions, boosting institutional adoption in the process. This is one of the reasons McClurg is confident that XRP’s price can significantly appreciate in the long term.
What Ripple Treasury Move Means For The Altcoin
X Finance Bull also recently explained what the launch of the Ripple treasury platform means for XRP’s adoption. He noted in an X post that the crypto firm is adding digital asset expertise to the treasury platform, which will drive the altcoin’s integration. Based on this, he declared that the impact of the altcoin is direct.
First, he stated that corporations will get unified visibility across cash and digital assets. Furthermore, thanks to XRP, settlements become instant, and the cost of FX drops. The move will also unlock more working capital as yield optimization runs 24/7. Lastly, the pundit stated that tokenized assets and programmable payments become native. He believes working on infrastructure that solves real corporate problems is the best way to drive institutional adoption, not through marketing.
At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.74, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
