Crypto expert UnknowDLT has argued that many investors are fixated on XRP’s short-term price movements, thereby missing Ripple’s larger mission. Fellow commentator VanQish reinforced this sentiment, suggesting that impatience blinds investors to the slow but steady construction of a scalable, compliant settlement network. Their views have reignited a long-term conviction movement within the XRP community, positioning holders as early participants in a significant financial transformation.
UnknowDLT, in a recent post, emphasized that the market’s obsession with short-term price movements overlooks Ripple’s broader mission of building a new global financial system powered by XRP. He stated, "The sad reality is that most people are still focused solely on price and fail to see that Ripple is laying the foundation for a new financial system with XRP." He further elaborated, "Forget about price; it makes no sense to focus on price in a market driven by pure speculation with no institutional adoption."
UnknowDLT added that true value will emerge through real-world utility and institutional integration, predicting XRP could eventually be worth "thousands of dollars" once the system is fully established.

Patience as a Core Investment Strategy
Responding to the post, fellow analyst VanQish echoed the sentiment, urging investors to focus on long-term vision rather than daily volatility. "Impatience is the enemy of every long game," he wrote. "The same people counting daily candles are missing the construction of an entirely new financial architecture happening right beneath them."
VanQish emphasized that XRP’s underlying infrastructure, designed for scalability, compliance, and interoperability, represents "protocol-level sovereignty" that could redefine global settlement systems. He added, "You don’t rush a system designed to outlast governments, banks, and generations."
Building the Future Financial Framework
Both commentators framed Ripple’s current efforts as part of a strategic, slow-moving evolution toward institutional adoption, rather than speculative market cycles. They highlighted ongoing developments such as cross-border payment corridors and tokenization infrastructure being built on the XRP Ledger.
For long-term believers, the message is clear: price volatility is temporary, but the architecture Ripple is creating may become permanent financial infrastructure.
“Hold the Line” Mentality Gains Traction
Within the XRP community, UnknowDLT’s and VanQish’s comments have reignited the “hold the line” mentality, an ethos centered on patience, conviction, and belief in XRP’s future role in the global economy.
As speculation continues to dominate much of the crypto market, a growing faction of XRP holders sees themselves not as traders, but as early participants in a paradigm shift—one that they believe will ultimately deliver “generational wealth.”
