Crypto pundit UnknowDLT has explained why XRP investors should not sell their tokens within the next three months. This came as he suggested that the altcoin could witness a massive adoption wave, thanks to the event that could occur within this period. 

Pundit Reveals Why XRP Investors Should Not Sell Their Tokens Before November

In an X post, UnknowDLT highlighted the end of the Ripple SEC case and the global adoption of ISO 20022 as reasons why investors should not sell their XRP before November. He noted that the XRP lawsuit already ended on August 22, the day that the Appeals Court approved Ripple and SEC’s joint dismissal of the case. 

Meanwhile, the pundit stated that the ISO 20022 global adoption will occur by November 22. This is the new financial messaging standard for global payments, and several banks and financial institutions have confirmed plans to adopt this new messaging standard. This could positively impact XRP, as Ripple’s payment solution is ISO 20022 compliant. 

XRP serves as the bridge currency in Ripple’s payment services and could gain greater adoption as more financial giants become ISO 20022 compliant, as they may be open to utilizing Ripple’s payment rails. It is worth mentioning that UnknowDLT made these statements in relation to an earlier X post by a community member who told investors that they need to hold their XRP for the next three months once the lawsuit ends. 

They both likely expect major developments during this period to catalyze higher prices for XRP. This is based on the fact that the Ripple SEC lawsuit is believed to have suppressed the token’s price action. Moreover, it also hindered some partnerships that Ripple could have secured, which would have boosted XRP’s adoption

XRP ETF Approval Could Happen Within This Period

The SEC’s approval of the pending XRP ETF applications is one of the major developments that could happen before November. The Commission recently delayed its decision on these funds to October, when it must approve or disapprove the proposed rule change to list and trade shares of these funds. 

Despite this delay, Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart predict that there is a 95% chance that the SEC will approve these XRP ETFs. Market expert Nate Geraci is also confident that the Commission will approve these funds and doubled down on his belief when the Ripple case approached its end.

Moreover, the XRP ETF issuers recently amended the S-1 forms for their respective funds, which Seyffart described as a good sign. He noted that this indicates that the SEC has provided feedback to the issuers. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $3, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

"King of Shilling" Hayes Strikes Again, This Time Setting His Sights on Deribit

On June 29, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes acquired approximately 6.16 million SYN tokens via OTC platform Flowdesk, valued at around $2.2 million. Subsequently, Hayes publicly endorsed SYN on X, calling it one of the most asymmetric investments he's seen since HYPE and declaring it time for an on-chain options DEX to challenge industry leader Deribit, naming Hypercall as that challenger. The article details the evolution of the Synapse Protocol, originally launched in 2021 as a cross-chain messaging and liquidity network. While its TVL peaked above $1 billion during the last bull market, it has since declined. The protocol's team has since built Hypercall, an on-chain options trading platform on Hyperliquid's HyperEVM, which supports trading options on "any asset" with features like 24/7 trading and defined risk limited to the premium paid. Deribit, founded in 2016, is highlighted as the dominant centralized crypto options exchange, commanding roughly 85% market share in BTC and ETH options. Its strengths include deep liquidity and professional tools, though it faces critiques over custody risk, KYC requirements, and regulatory uncertainty. The analysis suggests Hypercall's potential lies in decentralization, permissionless access, and transparency, potentially carving a niche in DeFi-native and emerging asset options. However, it faces significant challenges competing with Deribit's established network effect and liquidity depth. The piece concludes by noting Hayes's recent and mixed "call" history, referencing his previous promotion and subsequent sale of HYPE, as well as a controversial price target report for CARDS from his family office, Maelstrom, which was followed by a significant price drop for the asset. This activity has drawn criticism, with some accusing Hayes of creating exit liquidity for his followers.

One Year After the Crash of Crypto Treasury Companies, Copycats Are Already Making a Comeback

One year after the collapse of digital asset treasury (DAT) companies, which wiped out up to 99% for early investors, the scheme has returned in a new guise. Recently, Triller Group announced it would become a "SpaceX treasury company," causing its market cap to surge. This follows the rebranding of another firm, LGHL, now targeting a token called HYPE. The original model, popularized by MicroStrategy (MSTR) and its "Bitcoin yield" narrative, saw companies trading at massive premiums to their underlying crypto holdings. However, most followers like TwentyOne, Metaplanet, and Nakamoto have crashed 80-95%+ from their peaks, erasing nearly all value for late investors. The author argues these structures have no fundamental reason to trade at premiums when low-fee Bitcoin ETFs or direct ownership exist. The cycle persists due to speculative demand driven by FOMO, gamification, and a belief the system is rigged, met by insiders and promoters who profit from the pump-and-dump dynamics. Drawing a parallel to the 1637 Tulip Mania, the piece concludes that such frenzies are not a bug but a recurring product of markets, where greater fools provide demand and insiders supply the schemes. Despite holding Bitcoin personally, the author condemns this specific packaging of assets into leveraged corporate vehicles marketed as innovation, a cycle seemingly unstoppable until a major crash.
