Pundit Says Focus on the XRP Facts or Get Left Behind

Versan Aljarrah, founder of the Black Swan Capitalist, has urged investors to neglect distractions and focus on the facts surrounding XRP.

Aljarrah made the recent comments on the back of the ongoing crypto market downturn that has dealt a blow to XRP’s price outlook. Specifically, XRP has collapsed 32% over the last three months, currently changing hands at $1.92. This places it on track to record its first annual loss since 2022, down 7.36% in 2025.

People Getting Lost in “What Ifs”

Amid this disappointing price performance, negative sentiments have dominated the scene. As far back as October 2025, data from Santiment confirmed that XRP’s sentiments had dropped to their most bearish level in six months. Meanwhile, discussions around uncertain developments have also taken stage, leading to distractions.

Aljarrah has advised against focusing on these distractions. In his latest commentary, the market pundit pointed out that too many investors have chosen to spend their time focusing on what he calls “what ifs” and never-ending nuances. According to him, these individuals often engage in arguments about any tiny detail.

Meanwhile, Aljarrah emphasized that while they focus on what-ifs and continue to argue these tiny details, the XRP ecosystem progresses. In addition, XRP sees increased adoption, and the reality around improved ecosystem flows and greater valuation gradually kicks in.

Bullish Developments Around XRP and Ripple

For context, Ripple has been making impressive moves throughout this year, bringing RLUSD, XRPL, and XRP adoption to institutions. Most recently, Ripple expanded its partnership with TJM Investments to bolster the execution of institutional trade and collateral efficiency through Ripple Prime.

Moreover, Ripple formed a partnership with Mastercard, Gemini, and WebBank last month to allow settlements with RLUSD. The firm also collaborated with RedotPay, a partnership that would enable quick settlement and conversion of digital assets to Nigerian Naira.

Amid these moves from Ripple, XRP itself has continued to record bullish developments that point to its growing ecosystem and institutional appeal. Notably, after the first XRP ETF launched on Nov. 13, four more products emerged. Together, these funds crossed $1 billion in net inflows after 21 days of trading.

Focus on the Facts or Get Left Behind

Market pundits like Aljarrah see these developments surrounding XRP and Ripple as proof that the market is growing steadily. “Reality doesn’t wait,” he said. According to him, investors can either focus on the facts surrounding XRP or get left behind while the market progresses.

The recent comments represent Aljarrah’s latest disclosure surrounding XRP’s bullish future outlook. Recently, he called attention to the fact that tokenization would change everything, but it would require a neutral bridge that everyone would trust. Aljarrah suggested that XRP remains the perfect choice.
