XRP's Transition to Settlement Infrastructure: Crypto researcher Stern Drew outlines a framework for XRP to evolve from a speculative digital asset to a regulated settlement instrument, emphasizing the importance of regulatory recognition and compliance for its integration into institutional payment systems.
Government Adoption and Legal Tender Status: Drew suggests that governments facing economic challenges may adopt XRP for domestic and cross-border transactions, which could lead to its recognition as legal tender for specific state functions.
Integration with Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs): Smaller nations may utilize XRP as a foundation for synthetic CBDCs, allowing central banks to conduct settlements in XRP, thereby granting it de facto legal tender status within those systems.
Path to Reserve Currency Functionality: As XRP gains acceptance among sovereign wealth funds and multilateral organizations, it could evolve into a secondary reserve asset, ultimately becoming a primary reserve currency by facilitating global financial interoperability without replacing existing sovereign currencies.
