A new debate about Ethereum has emerged in the crypto community, as members now argue whether ETH can run the entire financial system. The discussion has caught the attention of pro-crypto lawyer Bill Morgan as well as members of the XRP community who have long advocated the XRP’s use case within global banking systems. Finance Expert Says All Banks Will “Go To Ethereum” Raoul Pal, co-founder and CEO of Real Vision, a US-based financial media company, has sparked widespread reactions in the crypto community after recently commenting on Ethereum’s potential role in the global banking system. Morgan, reacting to Pal’s comment on X, stated that the Real Vision CEO was essentially forecasting that “all banks will use Ethereum.” Related Reading: Ethereum Vs. Solana Vs. XRP: Which Coin Has Held Up Better? Morgan’s statement, which some interpreted as sarcastic, did not clearly agree or oppose Pal’s rather ambitious claim. Instead, he called it a “bold” prediction, and questioned the real conviction behind it and whether Pal was willing to bet on it.  The pro-crypto lawyer shared a screenshot of Pal’s statement, in which the Real Vision CEO outlined why he believes Ethereum could eventually play a central role in the global financial system. Pal noted that he found it humorous and ironic that just one to two years ago, many market participants were dismissing ETH as a “dead” asset, arguing that its relevance had faded while questioning its long-term value.   However, Pal took a different view, pushing back against that narrative by pointing to Ethereum’s underlying functionality and growth over the years. While others criticized the cryptocurrency, Pal believed the global banking system would eventually adopt ETH as a core chain.  He added that this does not mean the future would become a mono-chain world where everything runs on a single blockchain. Rather, he explained that his point is based on how financial institutions typically operate.  Pal pointed out that banks usually prioritize systems that prove they can survive, perform consistently, and remain sustainable over long periods. He also added that financial institutions tend to favor older technologies, since people are generally cautious of adopting new systems that could backfire and put their jobs at risk. From that perspective, he believes that Ethereum is the ideal digital network for all banks to use, as institutions mostly adopt technologies that meet those standards. Crypto Community Reacts To Pal’s ETH Claims Under Morgan’s post, members of the crypto community shared mixed reactions to Pal’s claims that the “banking system will go to Ethereum.”  While some agreed with the claims, many criticized it, arguing that Pal has a history of making predictions that are “wrong and misleading.” Related Reading: Analyst Says Ethereum Just Confirmed A ‘Turtle Soup’, Here’s What It Means At the same time, some members of the XRP community pushed back, contending that XRP is the cryptocurrency more likely to be adopted by banks and pointing to past remarks of support from Ripple co-founder Brad Garlinghouse. Overall, Pal’s statements have sparked a wave of discussion in the community, with skepticism dominating many of the responses. Featured image from Peakpx, chart from Tradingview.com
