Jerome Powell Mentioned XRP Without Mentioning XRP

Jerome Powell, the Chair of the U.S. Federal Reserve, recently commented on the U.S. government’s investment in building a new system for instant payments. He referred to it as “the first major expansion of our core payment system since the 1970s.”

Powell’s statement sparked interest within the cryptocurrency community, particularly among XRP supporters, as some believe it hints at a potential role for XRP in the future of U.S. payments infrastructure.

Prominent cryptocurrency advocate, JackTheRippler (@RippleXrpie), shared the video where Powell made these statements on X, adding the caption, “Jerome Powell mentioned XRP without mentioning it. The new system is coming!”

While Powell did not directly name XRP or any other digital asset, his description of the new system could imply the consideration of blockchain-based solutions, such as XRP, to facilitate faster, more efficient payments.

The Context of Powell’s Statement

In his statement, Powell emphasized the importance of this new payment system for both consumers and businesses. He highlighted the need to ensure that “all financial institutions have access to the payment system.”

This suggests that the Federal Reserve is seeking to modernize and broaden the reach of the U.S. payment system to ensure all institutions, regardless of size, can participate in and benefit from instant payments.

Powell’s remarks did not mention any specific technologies, such as blockchain or cryptocurrencies, but the ambiguity has led to speculation. In 2021, Powell revealed that cryptocurrencies are not a stability concern for U.S. markets, and this suggests that blockchain technology could be integrated into the upcoming payment system.

XRP, which is positioned as a digital asset focused on cross-border payments and liquidity solutions, naturally comes to mind for many in the cryptocurrency community as a potential candidate for enhancing the efficiency of this new system.

Ripple, the company behind XRP, has long positioned its technology as a faster and more cost-effective alternative to traditional payment systems, particularly for international transactions.

Speculation About XRP’s Role

Ripple has partnered with numerous financial institutions globally, positioning XRP as a bridge currency for international payments. Its focus on regulatory compliance and strategic partnerships with financial institutions has made it a strong contender for integration into national payment systems.

The speculation around XRP’s involvement in the U.S. payment system has gained momentum with the potential political developments in the U.S. Former President and pro-crypto candidate Donald Trump could push for more favorable policies toward cryptocurrencies if elected. This could open the door for XRP adoption in this new payment system, and possibly accelerate integration of other prominent digital assets.
