XRP, the core native cryptocurrency of the Ripple Link XRP Ledger (XRPL) blockchain, does not necessarily benefit from Ripple obtaining its leading broker, Hidden Road. XRP’s cryptocurrency is not integrated into Ripple’s liquidity logistics, says the veteran researcher.
A record-breaking deal for $9 from XRP? Analysts say no
Once Ripple acquires the Hidden Road Broker, XRP is set up to witness the impact of “zero” prices due to “on-demand liquidity” transfers and potential use of Ripple USD (RLUSD) Stablecoin Bridges.

Ripple’s ODL model zeros out transactions on both ends. Brad & David confirmed it on https://t.co/xceaop9upt pic.twitter.com/jseb9v00zg-Chλrkhbsξ™ (@darkhorsednme4) April 10, 2025
Researchers shared the calculations to expose the narrative of the imminent purchasing pressure on XRP, which is said to arise from its use in internal processes of Ripple.
First, Ripple’s ODL model zeros out transactions on both ends. Simply put, this is a zero-sum game with XRP supply. Ripple is because you always need to inject the same amount of fluidity as previously withdrawn.
For Stablecoin-based bridges, do not use XRP at all. At best, if Ripple relies on an XRPL-based version of RLUSD (instead of Ethereum’s), gas requires “spam fees” and XRP.
At the same time, XRP could benefit from the greater hype and the higher burns caused by Ripple’s XRP unlock, stronger market perception. However, all of these factors are unlikely to cause a proper rally.
XRP price increases by 24% over 5 days: 2 reasons
Anonymous experts have beaten the model that spotlighted XRP leads that emerged after Hidden Road Broker was acquired by Ripple.
According to this model, if 20% of the new ecosystem’s trading volume is associated with XRP, the price increases by 384%. In this Uber-Bullish model, XRP is set to reach $8.9 immediately. Even the most conservative version of this model suggests that XRP is ready for 50% price spikes.
Despite the general fear of the crypto market, the XRP military is currently optimistic about its assets. First, Ripple’s deal with hidden roads appeared to be the biggest in crypto history.
Since then, Ripple is more than ever closer to solving a five-year long legal battle with the United States. Both factors contributed to the surge in XRP prices.
XRP has changed hands at $2.06, up 3% over the past 24 hours.
