“SWIFT Took 40 Years. Ripple Will Do It in 4.”
Brad Garlinghouse didn’t make a prediction.
He made a declaration of war.
SWIFT is the empire.
XRP is the revolution.
And the takeover isn’t coming, it’s already underway.

2/🧵
SWIFT moves money like it’s still the 1980s:
•Delays
•Middlemen
•Fees
•No transparency

RippleNet?
•Instant
•Borderless
•On-chain settlement
•Liquidity built into the rail

It’s not an upgrade.
It’s a replacement.

3/🧵
SWIFT is used by 11,000 institutions.
But guess what?
Ripple has sat with over 40 central banks.
And not just sat partnered, integrated, tested.
Behind closed doors, they’re already onboarding the future.

4/🧵
The truth is this:
Banks aren’t loyal to SWIFT.
They’re loyal to control, speed, and profit.

XRP gives them all three —
Without friction.
Without delay.
Without SWIFT.

5/🧵
The statement wasn’t about time.
It was about scale.
Ripple isn’t moving slow.
It’s moving silently.
Because when the switch flips, there will be no warning.

Just new rails.
And XRP will be the default.

6/🧵
While retail argues over price,
Institutions are accumulating corridors.
This isn’t about 10x pumps.
This is about protocol dominance.

What SWIFT did in 40 years was build a leash.
What Ripple will do in 4 is cut it.

7/🧵
Know what you hold.
It’s not just a coin.
It’s not just a network.
It’s the foundation of a new financial empire.

And when the dust settles —
XRP will not be joining SWIFT.
It will be replacing it.
