A growing number of digital asset supporters believe the foundation for a new global financial system has already been laid, and XRP could be at its center. Among them is prominent crypto commentator Lord XRP (@Bitforcoinz), who recently detailed why he continues to hold the asset. His reasoning ties back to Ripple’s decade-long involvement with governments, major banks, and international organizations shaping the digital payments landscape. Reasons for Holding XRP Lord XRP stated, “I hold XRP because Ripple’s the chosen one to lead the new global digital payment system, and they use XRP.” He noted that Ripple’s involvement with central institutions dates back to 2013, when the U.S. Federal Reserve first explored faster payment options. Two years later, the Federal Payments Task Force was formed, and Ripple was the only crypto-focused company included in the initiative. He also pointed to a 2014 report by the World Bank and the Better Than Cash Alliance, which mentioned Ripple’s technology as part of future payment opportunities. WHY DO I HOLD #XRP ??
