The first figure Dunes referenced is ‘BabaCugs,’ a well-known riddler in the XRP community. He highlighted a post in which BabaCugs wrote: “Stop looking at February, it’s actually April.” The post also pointed to an image by another well-known riddler, @bearableguy123, titled “So it begins,” which prominently featured the number 2-14.
Dunes argued that 2-14 should not be interpreted as February 14. Instead, he suggests that 14 represents a day and 2 represents the month in the Ethiopian calendar system. Under that framework, the date 2-14 also aligns with October 24, 2025, on the standard Gregorian calendar.
Another part of the analysis references an older riddle shared by BabaCugs, who wrote: “4 days after JB is 13.” Dunes connects this clue to a cryptic post by another riddler, @TheFirstDecider, in 2020, who also made a post, stating “4 days after the death of my hero JB is the last chance to buy.”
Finally, the third set of clues highlighted in Dunes’ report comes from Mr. Pool, who told followers in 2021 to “watch closely April, May, June, and July.” After which, he wrote another message stating, “reset will occur swiftly, financial reset overnight.”
The analysis states that those four months correspond to the fourth through seventh months of the Ethiopian calendar. The seventh ends on day 13, which converts to March 22, 2026, in the Gregorian calendar. Dunes further notes that the timestamp of Mr. Pool’s original post also included numerical references that point to the same date and year.
Japanese Bonds And Bitcoin Align With TimelineCounting exactly 777 weeks from that date lands on March 17, 2026, one day before the scheduled Bank of Japan rates meeting. Due to this alignment, Dunes questioned if March 17 could mark Bitcoin’s last day as the king of cryptocurrencies.
