To scale, crypto must focus on reliable, regulated payment infrastructure. Observer Labs Stablecoins processed over $27 trillion in payments during 2024, prompting regulators worldwide to rush to create clear rules.

It’s the structure itself,” he said. “So long as we stay above $2.68, we’re going much higher.” Franzen’s XRP view comes out…

He posted that likelihood on X and backed it with simulation work that uses a decade of price moves to map likely outcomes.
