Crypto Kings Speak: 3 Influencers Calling XRP the Next Bitcoin

In the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency, bold claims are nothing new. But when three of the most influential voices in the crypto space align on a single asset, the market pays attention. Recently, top crypto influencers—dubbed “Crypto Kings” by their massive followings—have made waves by declaring that XRP could be the next Bitcoin in terms of growth potential, global adoption, and utility.
Who Are These Crypto Kings?
The three influencers at the center of this prediction are:
Crypto Mason, known for deep-dive XRP analysis and his early calls on altcoin breakouts
BitBoy Crypto (Ben Armstrong), a controversial yet widely followed personality with a history of bold, often accurate market forecasts
Digital Asset Investor, a longtime XRP supporter who focuses on real-world blockchain use cases and regulatory developments
All three have independently voiced confidence in XRP's future, and surprisingly, their reasoning overlaps in key areas.
1. Utility Over Hype: XRP’s Real-World Application
Unlike many meme tokens and speculative coins, XRP is purpose-built for real-world financial use—particularly cross-border payments. Ripple, the company behind XRP, has already partnered with hundreds of financial institutions worldwide to replace outdated systems like SWIFT with faster, cheaper blockchain infrastructure.
Crypto Mason noted in a recent post,
“While Bitcoin is digital gold, XRP is the digital oil that moves money across the globe. That utility will eventually eclipse hype.”
2. Institutional Backing and Legal Clarity
One of the biggest headwinds XRP has faced was its prolonged legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). However, since key legal victories in 2023 and early 2024, XRP has regained momentum.
BitBoy Crypto emphasized this point:
“Once the SEC case started falling apart, XRP became the most undervalued asset in the top 10. Now it’s poised for a breakout. Wall Street knows it. Retail just hasn’t caught up yet.”
Ripple’s legal progress has opened the door for institutional investors to safely enter XRP without fear of regulatory uncertainty—just as they did with Bitcoin and Ethereum after their respective green lights.
3. Scarcity and Supply Shock Potential
XRP’s tokenomics also mirror some aspects of Bitcoin’s long-term value proposition. With a fixed supply of 100 billion tokens—and a significant amount locked in escrow—XRP isn’t subject to inflationary risks.
The Digital Asset Investor explained:
“People underestimate the impact of Ripple’s strategic XRP lockups. It creates an artificial supply shock that could drive prices through the roof once demand explodes.”
As Ripple continues to expand its On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) network and integrate with central banks and global businesses, demand could outpace the available supply—fueling a dramatic price surge.
Could XRP Truly Be the Next Bitcoin?
While no coin can exactly replicate Bitcoin’s historic rise and cultural impact, XRP is increasingly being viewed as the next evolution in digital finance. Bitcoin brought awareness; Ethereum brought programmability; and now XRP is aiming to bring institutional-grade utility.
If these “Crypto Kings” are right, we may be witnessing a quiet accumulation phase before XRP takes center stage as the backbone of global finance.
Whether or not XRP becomes “the next Bitcoin,” one thing is clear: it’s not just another altcoin anymore—it’s a contender.
