XRP gained renewed attention this week following comments made by entrepreneur and investor Patrick Bet-David regarding its future role in global finance.
In a tweet posted by JackTheRippler (@RippleXrpie), Bet-David was cited stating that XRP is poised to replace SWIFT for international transactions — a claim that, if realized, could significantly elevate the digital asset’s value.
According to the video, Bet-David projected that XRP could reach as high as $1,000 per coin if it manages to capture just a portion of the market currently dominated by SWIFT. He underlined that getting just 10 percent of SWIFT’s worldwide transaction volume would be sufficient to cause an enormous price rise.

The standard system for interbank transfers is the SWIFT network, which processes more than $5 trillion of global payments a day.
According to the analysts, XRP may find its niche as a Scalable alternative or supplement to SWIFT, the effect of which, in case of the emergence of institutional demand, may cause significant changes in valuation.

Reports made early this year backed this stance, indicating that XRP Ledger is progressing towards accepting simple usage by large financial bodies. It is faster in settling transfers and charges very low rates, so it can be used to replace legacy cross-border payment mechanisms.
XRP’s Utility and Infrastructure Continue to Attract Institutional Interest
As adoption grows, experts argue that XRP would be required to support larger volumes of liquidity, making it more attractive to financial firms managing global transfers.
If Ripple’s enterprise partnerships continue to expand, XRP may increasingly serve as a bridge asset across borders.
Further utilization would not only increase demand but might cause a long-term supply shortage. This institution-buying pressure and increasing velocity are perceived to be essential elements in further price acceleration.
As XRP-related legal issues slowly clear up and it becomes adopted all over the world, the scenario of XRP consuming just 10 percent of the SWIFT traffic becomes less far-fetched.
These predictions of Patrick Bet-David, disseminated by JackTheRippler, contribute to a rising cacophony of voices indicating XRP as a digital currency with real-life use and potential in the long term.
