Former U.S. official highlights XRP’s finance role

A former U.S. official says Ripple and $XRP could play an exceptionally important role in the next generation of global finance.
The argument is centered on payments infrastructure.
With more than $190 trillion moving through the global financial system each year, even modest adoption of XRP-powered settlement could become meaningful.
For $XRP, the key signal is that institutional payment rails remain a major part of the long-term narrative.
The bigger question is whether XRP can move from being part of the conversation to seeing deeper real-world settlement adoption.
