Schwartz Silences XRP Speculation with Bagpipe Reality Check
Ripple's Chief Architect David Schwartz has addressed another round of speculation among XRP investors. The discussion began when Schwartz posted a GIF of bagpipes, which is a cult symbol in the Ripple community.
In response to his online debates, Schwartz explained that the musical instrument was used as a joke and not a secret signal. He mentioned an anonymous user named Bearableguy123 (BG123) who published riddles about XRP reaching $589 in 2017-2018. The collage featured an astronaut holding bagpipes on the Moon.
Schwartz clarified that when 'the pipes started playing,' it meant 'time to move... away from the bagpipes.' He emphasized that investors should not rely on unverified theories or predictions, including those claiming XRP will reach $10,000. Instead, they should use their heads and understand market mathematics.
