The cryptocurrency landscape is no stranger to bold theories, but few have endured as persistently as the Shane Ellis model — a controversial 2018 proposition suggesting that XRP could experience a sudden, overnight price revaluation rather than a gradual rise. Now, new developments in Ripple’s ecosystem are breathing life back into that theory, suggesting that the “hidden XRP price reset” may be more than just speculative 0 Return of the Shane Ellis Theory The Shane Ellis theory originated from a 2018 post that dissected how market mechanics could trigger a massive repricing of XRP in an 1 premise was simple but radical: if global payment corridors powered by XRP went live and began moving trillions of dollars in value, market makers and liquidity providers would need to instantly revalue XRP to maintain 2 years, this idea was dismissed as implausible, a dream too extreme for traditional finance to 3 in recent months, discussions around institutional adoption, liquidity infrastructure, and Ripple’s global partnerships have made this concept newly 4 DROPPED: The Hidden $XRP Price Reset They Tried to Bury (Shane Ellis Was Right). 5 — Ripple Bull Winkle | Crypto Researcher (@RipBullWinkle) October 22, 2025 Ripple Bull Winkle Revives the Debate In a video posted on X, respected researcher and XRP advocate Ripple Bull Winkle reignited the 6 asserted that what was once deemed “speculative” is now aligning closely with ongoing technological and financial developments tied to Ripple’s ecosystem.
“The numbers don’t lie,” Bull Winkle emphasized. “The Shane Ellis theory from a 2018 post predicted XRP’s price wouldn’t just rise gradually, but revalue overnight once global liquidity corridors went 7 is not 8 is all about mechanics.” He elaborated further, comparing the XRP liquidity model to a toll road: “If trillions in payments start flowing through XRP, the market has to reprice it instantly so liquidity does not run 9 of it like a toll road, 10 the whole world starts driving through, the toll price is going to skyrocket overnight.” Liquidity Corridors and Institutional Integration Ripple’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) network already embodies the type of mechanism Ellis envisioned, using XRP to settle payments instantly without the need for pre-funded 11 recent expansion of ODL corridors, particularly in regions like Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East, signals that real-world liquidity routes are no longer 12 are on X, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) June 15, 2025 Furthermore, Ripple’s launch of RLUSD, its U.
