Macro expert Dr. Jim Willie has laid out a speculative theory connecting XRP to global reserve currency status and big bank adoption.

According to Willie, XRP could eventually join the IMF's Special Drawing Rights (SDR) basket, which currently includes the dollar, euro, yen, Swiss franc, pound, and yuan.

Willie claims that XRP 'had its origins under the BlackRock roof,' although he does not provide any documentation to support this claim.

He also references IMF documents suggesting that XRP was designed for a role in global banking settlement, but does not provide specific citations or verifiable sources.
