Morgan Creek Capital Evaluates XRP Investment Prospects

Yusko noted that the company's portfolio has a significant share of Bitcoin, a smaller share of Ethereum and Solana, but XRP is absent from it. The reason is the lack of interest in the token from key investors and partners. In addition, he emphasized that the lack of decentralization of XRP was a decisive factor for excluding Morgan Creek Capital from the index fund, along with Stellar (XLM). Unlike these assets, Bitcoin, according to him, has an outstanding decentralized architecture.
Despite the skepticism, Yusko outlined the conditions under which XRP can be included in the company's investment portfolio. For this, the cryptocurrency must become a widely used tool in the banking sector, and the Ripple payment system must become a competitor to SWIFT. Another important factor will be the integration of XRP into the financial infrastructure of major banks such as JPMorgan and Bank of America.
Yusko previously predicted that after the halving in April, the Bitcoin rate would rise to $150,000 within nine months. He recently suggested that the new US administration may consider including XRP in the crypto reserve along with Bitcoin.
