One XRP influencer, JackTheRippler, declares with the authority of a medieval herald that BlackRock and Ripple are about to seal a pact to tokenize assets on the XRPL. Fellow cheerleaders CryptoSensei and Bale chant the same chorus, stirring the XRP faithful into a frenzy. The crowd waits with bated breath-only to find the announcers silent. The silence is deafening. No official statement from the mighty BlackRock or Ripple, just echoes of hope and hype. Meanwhile, Larry Fink, the mighty CEO, hints that they’re dabbling in their own gem-tokenizing funds to woo the crypto vagabonds into the traditional fold. Because, if Dali painted ETFs as surrealist art, BlackRock’s next masterpiece might be tokenized retirement plans. 🎨🧓
