Crypto speculations simmer after cryptic posts on X
The crypto community on X is on edge over cryptic posts by Ripple’s chief technology officer and X itself.
The crypto community on X (formerly Twitter) has been thrown into a series of guessing games by a couple of cryptic posts.
One of the posts was made by David Schwartz, Ripple’s chief technology officer. He published a picture of a frog sitting on the leaf of a lily pad, with a water lily flower on each side of the frog. This prompted a response from the cryptocurrency community, particularly XRP (XRP) and Pepecoin (PEPE) enthusiasts.
XRP enthusiasts expressed sentiments such as “Hoping this translates into a transformative XRP price” and “Anticipating a quantum leap or major shift.“ A PEPE-themed X account, xPEPE, suggested that Schwartz had come to a favorable realization and raised a “bullish flag for frog enthusiasts worldwide.“

X user Juan Martinez commented, “Welcome aboard Sir.“ The X user added an image of two frogs on the moon with a PondX logo on it.
Meanwhile, a second cryptic post was made by X itself, sharing a meme of a dog answering a telephone call, which has sparked speculations among the crypto Dogecoin (DOGE) community and others.
Although the post lacks specific details, it’s suspected by some Dogecoin enthusiasts that X, associated with Elon Musk, is likely exploring Dogecoin adoption on the platform. It’s worth noting that similar speculations have circulated in the past.

However, some believe the post hints at a new audio calling feature. X user Alx asked if an audio calling feature is imminent on X but received no clear response from X.
