Dennis Porter has teased something “massive” for Bitcoin coming next week. He claims there’s an opportunity to change the course of Bitcoin’s history in the USA — and it’s that big. Porter says this could be a pivotal moment for Bitcoin policy, adoption, or regulation stateside. What’s unclear is exactly what this “massive” event entails — proposed laws, regulatory shifts, or large institutional movement. All eyes will be watching closely.

XRP is expected to decouple from Bitcoin once institutional adoption and settlement demand begin driving its value independently. The shift will be gradual, fueled by growing usage of XRP in cross-border payments and banking networks. As settlement demand increases, XRP’s price will be anchored more to real-world utility rather than broader crypto market sentiment, signaling a fundamental divergence from Bitcoin’s dominance in the digital asset space.
