Claude AI Predicts and Backs Claver’s $10K XRP Price Prediction as Anthropic Faces Pompliano Backlash

Claude, an artificial-intelligence system, projected a $10,000 price for XRP and endorsed a scenario promoted by Jake Claver. The case centers on XRP becoming a neutral bridge asset for global financial settlement, with banks, payment providers and central banks using it to move value across borders; Claude also cited locked supply, regulatory clarity, tokenized assets and stablecoins on the XRP Ledger as catalysts. The projection came as Anthony Pompliano accused Anthropic of approaching engineers at his Silvia startup for proprietary information before launching Claude Personal Finance. At Ripple Swell 2026, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse described XRP as a possible benchmark for institutional crypto transactions, while David Schwartz envisions blockchain becoming part of everyday money management.
