A long‑time figure in the world of digital money and a noted XRP advocate 
stepped out of the shadows this week, sparking fresh chatter among investors 
and developers alike. Related Reading: XRP Could Hit $35 If It Captures A 
Quarter Of Remittance Market By 2029 Arthur Britto, who co‑founded Ripple Labs 
in 2012, broke a 14‑year silence with a single emoji on X. That tiny message 
carried big weight. His name rarely surfaces in headlines, but his work helped 
build XRP into one of the top assets by market value. Impact Of A Secretive 
Founder According to reports, Britto kept a low profile while helping craft 
the XRP Ledger’s code. He holds a 2% stake in XRP under a deal made when the 
company launched. That slice of holdings could be worth billions if the 
token’s price ever climbed high enough. Some in the market worry that if 
Britto ever sold even part of that stake, it might send prices tumbling. 🚨⚠️ 
HE CO-CREATED THE XRP LEDGER. HE HOLDS 2% OF ALL XRP. HE’S NEVER BEEN SEEN IN 
PUBLIC. Arthur Britto might be the most important figure in crypto you’ve 
never heard of. Let’s dive into the mystery.🧵👇 pic.twitter.com/xKyiYXIpGY — 
All Things XRP (@XRP_investing) July 5, 2025 The Satoshi Connection Based on 
reports, comparisons to Bitcoin’s creator have swirled around Britto for 
years. Some fans point to the fact that Satoshi Nakamoto’s last known post 
came just as the XRP Ledger went live. That timing alone has led people to 
whisper that Britto could be Satoshi under a different name. No proof supports 
that idea. Experts say it’s more likely just a coincidence. Britto’s lone 
emoji on X was verified by Ripple CTO David Schwartz. That confirmation set 
off a wave of theories about what might come next. Some speculated a new 
protocol update. Others thought it hinted at a partnership or a fresh product 
launch. So far, nothing public has followed the post. Behind The Scenes At 
PolySign While he stayed away from interviews, Britto never stopped working. 
He co‑founded PolySign, a crypto custody firm that now operates under Ripple 
Custody. That arm provides secure storage for institutions holding digital 
coins. Based on filings, PolySign handled an estimated $1.5 billion in assets 
last year. Its integration into Ripple’s services shows Britto’s influence 
lives on, even if his name doesn’t show up on conference schedules. Related

Future Moves And Market Watch With XRP trading near its recent range, some 
investors say they’re watching for any hint of action from Britto’s wallet. 
Price targets in the community sometimes stretch to $10,000 per XRP. Those 
figures come without verification, and many traders treat them as wishful 
thinking. Still, a lot can happen if even a fraction of Britto’s holdings 
moves. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView

Dogecoin (DOGE) Eyes Breakout — Can Bulls Unleash the Next Surge?

Bitcoin (BTC) has remained range-bound between $100,000 and $110,000 since May 
7, aside from a few dips to as low as $98,000 in June, which were quickly 
followed by daily candle closes above the $100,000 level. Recent analysis 
reveals that BTC has withstood sustained selling pressure on Binance 
Derivatives throughout this period. Bitcoin Withstands Binance Derivatives 
Sell-Off According to a CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor BorisVest, 
taker users on Binance Derivatives have consistently engaged in sell-side 
activity for at least the past 45 days. Notably, the Cumulative Volume Delta 
(CVD) has remained negative throughout this time. For the uninitiated, the CVD 
measures the net difference between market buy &#8211; aggressive buying &#8211; and 
market sell &#8211; aggressive selling &#8211; orders over time. It helps traders identify 
whether buying or selling pressure is dominating, even if price remains 
stable. Related Reading: Bitcoin Short-Term Holder Floor Rises Toward 
$100,000, Reinforcing Bullish Sentiment BorisVest noted that Binance 
Derivatives traders are treating each BTC bounce or rally as a selling 
opportunity, opening aggressive short positions via market sell orders. 
However, this strong sell pressure has failed to push prices lower, as BTC 
continues to absorb the selling activity and maintain support above $100,000. 
The analyst added that as long as BTC remains within its current range &#8211; 
between $100,000 and $110,000 &#8211; while absorbing sell pressure, the potential 
for upside remains intact. He explained: The CVD metric plays a crucial role 
here. It aggregates both taker and maker activity to provide a real-time 
picture of net buy/sell pressure. The fact that CVD remains in decline 
confirms the dominance of sell-side flow. Yet, the inability of price to drop 
further despite this pressure may signal that Bitcoin is being absorbed by 
institutional or large players in the background. That said, other analysts 
interpret the persistent selling pressure differently. For example, fellow 
CryptoQuant analyst Crazzyblockk recently observed that new buyer demand is 
struggling to keep pace with the combined supply pressure from newly mined BTC 
and selling by long-term holders. BTC Eyeing A Breakout Ahead? Bitcoin’s 
resilience in the face of heavy selling on Binance Derivatives has once again 
sparked speculation about a potential breakout. Several additional data points 
suggest that BTC may be poised to move into a higher price range soon. Related

Next Target? For instance, recent on-chain data shows that &#8220;weak hands&#8221; are 
offloading their BTC holdings to larger, more established investors &#8211; 
indicating a broader shift in sentiment favoring Bitcoin. Meanwhile, 
institutional interest in the asset continues to grow. Additionally, the 
Bitcoin Yearly Percentage Trend suggests that BTC could top out around 
$205,000 by the end of 2025. At press time, BTC trades at $108,589, up 0.4% in 
the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from CryptoQuant and
