That ruling gave it breathing room, institutional credibility, and a green light for use cases that go far beyond speculation. Markets are finally starting to price in real world functionality. XRP isn’t trying to be digital gold, it’s trying to be digital infrastructure. So instead of asking why Ripple hasn’t put XRP on its balance sheet like Saylor, maybe ask: why would they limit themselves to that, when they’re building the rails that everyone else might be forced to use? That’s smart, strategic positioning for the next era of finance.
