XRP Tied to BlackRock, IMF, and Global De-Dollarization
Macro expert Dr. Jim Willie has made several claims about the XRP cryptocurrency and its potential role in global finance.
He believes that XRP could eventually join the IMF's Special Drawing Rights basket, which currently includes the dollar, euro, yen, Swiss franc, pound, and yuan.
Willie also claimed that XRP 'had its origins under the BlackRock roof,' but did not provide any documentation to support this claim.
Furthermore, he stated that major banks such as BlackRock, JPMorgan, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Goldman Sachs are holding XRP in the billions, although no evidence was presented to support this claim.
The macro expert tied these claims back to a broader argument around global de-dollarization, saying the world is shifting towards what he called a 'neutral bridge asset' for cross-border payments.
