- Experts highlight XRP’s emerging importance in global finance, positioning it as a potential cornerstone for tokenized cross-border financial systems.
- Key institutions like the IMF and World Bank are exploring XRP for asset tokenization, signaling its expanding role in the future of global transactions.
Since March, we have learned about the foundation for XRP’s transition to a global reserve currency. As reported by CNF, experts predict XRP’s crucial role in shaping the future of the global financial system. According to Versan Aljarrah, co-founder of Black Swan Capitalist, he reiterated on his X account that he strongly believes in XRP’s importance in this transformation.
In a recent tweet, Aljarrah shared a video from Gregory Mannarino, a financial commentator often referred to as the “Robin Hood of Wall Street,” whose views align with Aljarrah’s optimism for XRP’s future.
And just like that, #XRP is on track to become the global reserve asset and #currency we’ve been talking about. The #IMF, #WorldBank, and central banks will leverage #XRP to tokenize, trade and settle all assets

In the video, Mannarino discusses efforts by major financial institutions, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Bank, and the Bank of International Settlements (BIS), to develop a fully tokenized, cross-border financial system. He explains that these organizations are working toward a system that tokenizes all financial assets, positioning XRP as the central medium for trading and settlement.
XRP’s Expanding Role in Asset Tokenization
Mannarino highlights the significant shift in asset management and global transactions as more financial assets are tokenized, enabling seamless tracking and trading. XRP, already a key player in cross-border transactions, could see its role grow if major institutions adopt it for tokenization.
Ripple CTO David Schwartz predicts that the XRP Ledger will host tokenized assets by 2025. Recent announcements, such as the introduction of Tokenized Treasury Bills (T-Bills) on the XRPL, support this forecast.
Growing Interest and Institutional Support for XRP
With global institutions exploring tokenization and blockchain technology, XRP’s utility could expand beyond its current applications. As Mannarino notes, this could position XRP as a key player in the trade and settlement of assets on a global scale, potentially transforming the future of finance.
At the time of writing, Ripple (XRP) is trading at $0.5826, having surged by 2.03% in the past day and 7.89% in the past week.
