🚨 This connection is MASSIVE and most people are still sleeping on it… DTCC → Hidden Road (Ripple Prime) → GVMNT Securities Division Let that sink in. 🧵
🏦 DTCC — clears $2.5 QUADRILLION in securities annually. The backbone of Wall Street.
🔗 Hidden Road — acquired by Ripple. Now operating as Ripple Prime. A prime brokerage connecting TradFi to crypto rails. 🏛️ Government Securities Division — the most regulated, most trusted layer of global finance. And sitting right in the middle of all of this? $XRP. Not speculation. Not a meme. A bridge asset being quietly positioned at the center of institutional finance. While retail panic sells… Institutions are building the rails. The suit is almost over. The partnerships are already done. The infrastructure is already here.
$XRP isn't chasing the future — it IS the future. Are you positioned? 👇

The CB Weekly Market Recap (Feb 15th-Feb 21st, 2026) ⚡️ 🔴 The U.S equity markets ended the week with modest gains, with the Nasdaq snapping a five-week losing streak. This was primarily driven by a relief rally on Friday, particularly in import-sensitive sectors and tech, as the U.S. Supreme Court struck down President Trump's reciprocal tariffs under IEEPA. 🔴 Meanwhile, the crypto market exhibited indecision and volatility, with $BTC and $ETH fluctuating in narrow ranges amid outflows from spot ETFs, reduced retail activity, and broader macro uncertainty. 🔴 $BTC has been range-bound between $66,000 and $70,000, holding above key support but failing to decisively break higher. 🔴 While a lower-than-expected CPI print improved risk appetite earlier in the week, that sentiment quickly faded as markets balanced optimism with caution heading into other data releases. 🔴 Notably, Q4 GDP came in at just 1.4%, well below the 3% Wall Street had expected, with a government shutdown cited as a key driver. December PCE also came in slightly above consensus. 🔴 Market expectations for Fed rate cuts have also dropped sharply as the Fed took on a hawkish tone in Wednesday's Fed minutes. 🔴 According to the CME Watchtool, the odds of the Fed holding rates steady in March have surged to 96.5%. This triggered a broad "risk-off" rotation across higher-beta assets, including crypto. 🔴 The crypto market sentiment continues to remain in “Extreme Fear.” This is the longest extreme fear streak since 2022.

Leveraged demand. Institutional wrappers. This is not retail noise. It’s structured accumulation through regulated vehicles. A notable signal for sustained institutional interest in XRP-linked products.
Spot volume +48.84% This is synchronized volume expansion not retail noise. When spot and futures rise together, it signals real capital stepping in. Breakouts are built on participation. Right now, participation is accelerating.
If you’re holding $XRP , understand what’s happening here. Ripple is no longer fighting for survival the SEC overhang is gone. Regulatory clarity is the foundation institutions were waiting for. Court decisions positioned XRP closer to a commodity than a security. That changes how capital evaluates risk. Brad Garlinghouse isn’t on the sidelines he’s in Washington, in the rooms that shape policy. Access matters. We’re now seeing companies explore XRP for treasury positioning, while banks continue using it for real cross-border settlement. This isn’t meme momentum. This is regulatory clarity + political access + treasury interest + real payment utility aligning at once. When utility meets liquidity, repricing happens. 10x from here isn’t emotion it’s a liquidity cycle scenario. Watch the capital flows.
