According to Versan Aljarrah, the founder of Black Swan Capitalist and a firm supporter of XRP, the cryptocurrency will overtake Bitcoin as the leader of the crypto market by 2025. Aljarrah's belief is based on the theory that the leading stablecoin, Tether (USDT), is being used to artificially inflate Bitcoin's value. This theory is rooted in a 2018 study that found a single whale was responsible for driving Bitcoin's rally in late 2017 through Tether issuance. However, there is currently no concrete evidence of such manipulation. Aljarrah predicts that as Tether becomes less powerful and potentially delisted globally, XRP, with its regulatory clarity, will take the lead. This argument comes at a time when stablecoin regulations are gaining attention, and Tether is facing compliance issues. It is important to note that while XRP's market cap is currently much smaller than Bitcoin's, any significant event affecting Bitcoin is likely to impact the broader crypto market, including XRP.
