Crypto pundit Remi has explained the impact that the Japanese Bond gap could have on the XRP price reaching $150. This came as he declared that the rising Japanese 10-bond yield is a good thing for XRP holders but bad for the world.  What The Rising Japanese Bond Yield Means For The XRP Price In an X post, Remi, alluding to the rising Japanese 10-year bond yield, stated that this was a good thing for XRP holders but bad for the globe. He explained that the rising yields will likely prompt the Bank of Japan (BOJ) to raise interest rates, which would cause panic among everyone who borrowed money from Japan at 0% interest. Related Reading: Why XRP Supply Crashing On Coinbase Is A Good Thing For The Price He further remarked that the loan holders will sell their investments to repay their loans, which causes a liquidity crisis. Remi noted that this is where XRP comes into play and “saves the day,” as the reverse Carry Trade will take place, causing the XRP price to reach between $50 and $150.  Remi described this as the “price before law,” stating that the XRP price can reach $100 before the CLARITY Act gets passed. He said it all depends on Japan and what they want to do with interest rates. The pundit added that if U.S. President Donald Trump gives them the green light, then this can all unfold in days.  The pundit also alleged that Japanese banks are waiting for the CLARITY Act to begin using XRP at 100% in Japan. This came as he questioned whether the XRP price surge would precede the CLARITY Act or whether the bill would be signed before the Reverse Carry Trade. He suggested that the Reverse Carry Trade could happen first, as the energy crisis due to the U.S.-Iran war could force the BOJ to hike rates.  XRP Could Still Reach $1,000 In another X post, Remi stated that the XRP price could reach $1,000 if the altcoin continues to follow the 2017 bull run, when it recorded a surge of over 40,000%. He noted that the altcoin surged 76,000% without any FOMO, institutions, utility, ETFs, or supply shock. The pundit opined that if XRP follows the same trend and gets a 76,000% increase, assuming the bottom is in, then the altcoin could rally above $1,000.  Related Reading: Will The XRP Price Crash Further From Here? Major Levels To Watch He also indicated that an XRP price rally to $1,000 is conservative if one were to add FOMO, institutions, utility, XRP ETFs, and supply shock. Remi advised market participants to take profits at various intervals unless they have the financial means to wait and take risks. “Always remember…Anything can go wrong. Be smart,” he added. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.33, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

A 10 billion yen blockchain bond launched earlier this year by SBI Holdings may say more about Japan’s XRP ambitions than any price prediction could. Crypto commentator Stellar Rippler brought the SBI CEO’s remarks to light, sparking fresh debate over XRP’s outlook. Related Reading: Bitcoin ETFs Gaining Ground, Could Soon Surpass Gold—Analyst SBI’s Long Game With Ripple The Tokyo-based financial giant issued the bond in February 2026, offering investors returns paid out in XRP — a first for a major Japanese financial institution. The move came alongside plans to roll out Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin through SBI’s licensed exchange in Japan, and a new partnership between SBI Ripple Asia and the Asia Web3 Alliance Japan to back startups building financial tools on the XRP Ledger. SBI’s ties to Ripple run deep. The company has been Ripple’s largest external shareholder since the two firms launched SBI Ripple Asia in 2016. That joint venture has spent nearly a decade building cross-border payment corridors across Japan, South Korea, India, and the Philippines — real infrastructure, not just announcements. “XRP WILL BE VERY EXPENSIVE.” No, this is not just David Schwartz’s confession. This was also said by the biggest financial giant of Japan, Yoshitaka Kitao, SBI Holdings CEO. SBI is Ripple’s largest external shareholder. And he says clearly: “XRP will be very expensive.”… pic.twitter.com/mixB533ymR — Stellar Rippler???? (@Stellar_Rippler) April 3, 2026 CEO’s Words Draw Attention Against that backdrop, comments from SBI Holdings CEO Yoshitaka Kitao are drawing renewed attention. Kitao stated plainly that XRP “will be very expensive.” He also pointed to the ongoing legal proceedings between Ripple and US regulators, saying a court ruling in Ripple’s favor could trigger a significant jump in XRP’s price. “If the decision is made and Ripple’s XRP is a coin, I think it will be a big price,” Kitao said. “If the conclusion is positive, I think it will be great.” His remarks were shared widely in crypto circles after being posted on social media. Coming from the head of one of Japan’s largest financial services groups — one with direct financial stakes in Ripple — the statement landed differently than typical market commentary. Kitao appeared to believe a ruling could come within weeks, based on reports circulating at the time. No confirmed court date has been publicly announced. A Partnership Still Expanding What makes the CEO’s comments worth following is the weight SBI carries in the Ripple story. This isn’t a speculative endorsement from the sidelines. SBI has put real money, real products, and real institutional infrastructure behind XRP over nearly a decade. Related Reading: XRP Eyes $8.30 Target As Rare Chart Pattern Emerges From Prolonged Decline The February bond alone — worth roughly $64 million — signals that SBI is not pulling back. It is doubling down, using XRP as a direct reward mechanism for its investors in a market where regulatory approval for such products is hard-won.
