Catherine Austin Fitts, former US Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, predicts Ripple and its token XRP will play a crucial role in the emerging financial infrastructure, particularly for cross-border payments.

Fitts highlights that institutions are already adopting Ripple and Stellar networks, using XRP and XLM for efficient, large-scale value transfers. This view positions XRP as foundational financial plumbing, while Bitcoin's future role remains uncertain and more asset-like than infrastructural.
