Versan Aljarrah, the founder of Black Swan Capitalist, claims that Bitcoin can act as a digital collateral supporting Ripple's liquidity corridors.
According to his hypothesis, Bitcoin can finance Ripple's On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) system and play a more proactive role than before.
Bitcoin, Invisible Liquidity Support
If true, this theory challenges the idea that Bitcoin and Ripple operate independently.
Instead, it implies strategic connections between major digital assets and suggests deep integration within the global financial infrastructure.
Aljarrah suggests that Ripple's global payment network could be quietly supported by Bitcoin by using XRP as an intermediary asset for cross-border transactions.
What if Bitcoin is quietly financing @Ripple's infrastructure? Acting as the digital collateral, $BTC could be moving stored value into liquidity corridors that @Ripple and others are building, all while $XRP is about to power the institutional rails coming online. pic.twitter.com/wkZHucHKOn

From this perspective, Bitcoin acts as a backstage collateral, injecting stored value into Ripple's ecosystem to facilitate institutional payments.
He argues that this process can occur without public acknowledgment, with Ripple leveraging Bitcoin's relative value stability to expand its system.
This reconfigures Bitcoin's role from a simple "digital gold" asset to a primary liquidity source for Ripple.
It suggests that Bitcoin can act not just as a value storage mechanism, but as an entry point to an active financial infrastructure.
Towards a Hybrid Financial Structure
Aljarrah sees this potential interaction as part of a broader strategy. Bitcoin can act as a decentralized reserve, while Ripple uses ODL technology to efficiently mobilize its value in real-time finance.

This structure could optimize the use of both assets and enable a hybrid financial architecture. This model could provide faster and more scalable international capital movement by connecting cryptocurrency systems with traditional finance.
Aljarrah is known for bold claims. In March, he sparked controversy in the cryptocurrency community by claiming that global institutions had preset XRP's price.
He also suggested that central banks might already be secretly using XRP, comparing its current market value to a pre-listing stage.
