Many market observers are reassessing their expectations for XRP following new commentary from crypto enthusiast X Finance Bull that focuses on the asset’s rapidly tightening supply conditions. His post highlighted remarks from financial analyst Jake Claver, whose recent video detailed the pace at which over-the-counter and dark pool reserves of XRP may be diminishing. The discussion has led many readers to examine the implications of institutional demand, particularly as more exchange-traded products enter the market . If institutions can’t buy $XRP through OTC anymore… who’s left to sell? @RippleXrpie just posted a warning from Jake Claver, when the supply vanishes, the price doesn’t climb, it rockets The floodgates aren’t opening. They’re snapping off the hinges Repost if you are bullish https://t.co/O8GmYiip1s — X Finance Bull (@Xfinancebull) November 27, 2025 OTC Availability Shrinking Rapidly In the video shared by X Finance Bull, Claver explains that institutional access to XRP has shifted notably since the introduction of spot ETFs . He states that these products are consuming large portions of the available supply through OTC desks and dark pool channels. According to his estimates, the total accessible amount in these private markets ranged from one to two billion XRP before the current surge in activity. Claver reports that approximately 800 million XRP were absorbed within the first week of ETF demand alone. He notes that this figure represents either half or nearly all of what he believed remained available through OTC and dark pool sources. Claver stresses that once these reserves are exhausted, institutional buyers will be forced to source XRP from public exchanges, which he argues could have a significant impact on price. Expectations for Additional XRP ETFs A key point in Claver’s video is his expectation that several of the largest asset managers may soon enter the XRP ETF market. He specifically names BlackRock , Vanguard, and Fidelity as firms he believes could introduce their own spot products. Claver suggests that if these firms join, the number of XRP ETFs would surpass the total of Bitcoin ETF offerings, a development he believes would place further strain on the limited supply. He emphasizes that the current wave of purchases does not yet include these major institutions, implying that demand could increase substantially once they participate. Claver argues that the assumption that institutions will indefinitely rely on OTC channels for accumulation is misplaced because the available pool is already approaching depletion.

He notes that XRP briefly recorded a high of $91 on Kraken in the prior week, and he highlights that this instance was registered on the platform. He contrasts this with past occurrences on other exchanges where extreme price spikes circulated through user-shared videos but did not appear in official trading records. Claver interprets the Kraken event as an early example of how rapidly prices may react when institutional buyers must turn to open markets. He predicts that once OTC and dark pool supply is exhausted, increased ETF inflows will translate into sharp market adjustments. He reiterates that he expects the developments he has been forecasting for the past 18 months to materialize soon, driven primarily by the structural shift in how institutions access XRP.
