X Finance Bull explained that Ripple’s large reserve creates a strategic opportunity to distribute between 20 million and 25 million XRP to institutional partners. Some of these include banks, liquidity providers, payment companies, central bank infrastructure partners, and tokenization platforms.
As these tokens gradually move from escrow into operational use, the analyst expects Ripple’s total XRP holdings to drop below 20% eventually. Consequently, this shift could strengthen decentralization, increase regulatory comfort, and open the door to broader institutional participation.
Building on this outlook, X Finance Bull outlined what XRP’s supply structure could look like after Ripple completes its distribution. He projected that the crypto company would hold around 18 billion XRP after the transfer. At the same time, banks would own 12 billion, liquidity providers roughly 10 billion, exchanges around 8 billion, payment firms about 6 billion, and public holders retaining approximately 46 billion.
The Broader Case For XRP’s Projected Institutional FutureThe analyst also mentioned the pending national bank charter for Ripple and the company’s continued global expansion and corporate acquisitions as signs that the institutional layer is actively forming around XRP. Furthermore, as the CLARITY Act approaches, the new framework could play a significant role in shaping how institutions view XRP and other digital assets.
