If XRP goes to $10,000 per coin, how much money do they have in value sitting there? Okay, so Grok is going to do this calculation for us, and I'm going to show you how rich this company would be. They would be— they would have $16 trillion of cash. Like, well, and they can't dump that all, right? They can't dump that all, but their XRP holdings alone would be worth $16 trillion. Then you've got Ripple itself, right? Ripple holds like— wait, how much do they hold? Ripple's holding $37 billion. Holds $37 billion. Where would they be at, right? Where would they be at? Um, there are billions on exchanges, so the supply shock thing is really dumb. The supply shock thing is dumb. So Ripple would be worth— not worth— Ripple the company would be worth like 2 to 3 to 5 to 10x this, like if someone wanted to buy them. This is specifically saying that Ripple would now have $370 trillion in cash— not cash, but XRP valued against cash. What company in the world has $370 trillion? Sitting in an asset. Like, it's just not feasible, right? There's so much that's not feasible about it.
