An X user named Blackhawk responded by stating, “WatcherGuru claimed to be hacked when they posted this and took it down immediately. Just for info.” Blackhawk’s comment refers to a specific incident involving Watcher.Guru’s account, which previously published similar claims but later retracted them, citing a security breach. Another X user, Jordan Lucilus, directly challenged the original claim, stating , “No it hasn’t…no agreement has been publicly announced. SWIFT is currently exploring various block chains. Don’t count your chickens!” His comment indicates that, as of now, there has been no formal or public confirmation of an agreement between Ripple and Swift involving XRP. Jordan’s statement aligns with the official status of developments, which suggest that Swift is still in the process of testing and evaluating multiple blockchain technologies rather than finalizing any specific partnerships.

However, this post was quickly deleted, and Watcher.Guru issued an official statement explaining the situation. According to a report by Times Tabloid , Watcher.Guru clarified, “WARNING: Our X account has been hacked, and the previous post (now deleted) was posted by a hacker. We have 2FA enabled and have taken extreme measures to avoid hacks. We are looking into this and will provide an update when we have more details. We are working to get in touch with X support.” This clarification indicated that the information shared was not an official announcement from Watcher.Guru, but rather the result of unauthorized access to their account. Despite their swift response, the post had already gained significant visibility before it was removed, creating confusion within the crypto community. Current Status and Clarifications As of now, there remains no public or official confirmation of an agreement between Ripple and SWIFT regarding the use of XRP for cross-border payments. While SWIFT has been engaged in trials and research related to blockchain technology and digital assets, including collaborations with various blockchain firms, no formal partnership with Ripple specifically involving XRP has been announced.
