Farage’s Stack BTC Video Prompts Scrutiny

A more revealing question asks what happens to XRP’s narrative if banks and central bank-connected rails can deliver a large share of the same customer outcome without needing XRP at all.

Utility in payments has never been an abstract concept. It is a solution to a workflow problem. Once that workflow begins to improve within the incumbent stack, investors have to consider moat compression. XRP can still have utility under that setup. It can still move value quickly.
