- XRP supporters are reigniting the $589 narrative after discovering the digits “589” embedded in Ripple’s official trademark registration number.
- Ripple’s acquisition of Hidden Road, located at 589 5th Avenue, further reinforces XRP’s symbolic connection to the number 589.
Is XRP’s future already coded in plain sight? That’s the claim buzzing once again in the XRP community after a recent post from the popular meme account “$589” reignited talk of the long-standing “XRP to $589” narrative.
The tweet highlights Ripple official trademark filing for “XRP” with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, drawing attention to the registration number 4458993, which notably includes the digits “589.” To many, it’s more than coincidence—it’s yet another breadcrumb in a trail of encoded signals pointing to XRP’s supposed future value.

XRP and the Mythic Rise of 589 in Community Culture
The number “589” holds near-legendary status in XRP circles. It was originally fueled by a now-debunked myth that an episode of The Simpsons had predicted XRP’s rise to $589. Despite the rumor being false, the number became an enduring symbol of hope and ultra-bullish sentiment within the community. Over time, it evolved into more than a price target—it became a cultural icon.
Hidden Road, 589 5th Avenue, and a $1.25B Deal
Adding even more intrigue, Ripple’s recent $1.25 billion acquisition of digital asset firm Hidden Road included an interesting detail: the company’s New York office is located at 589 5th Avenue. According to digital asset researcher Anders, this is yet another appearance of the mysterious number in Ripple’s orbit, fueling further speculation.
Trademark Still Active, Community Still Believing
Not only does Ripple’s trademark registration include the famed digits, but it’s also listed as active, having cleared Sections 8 and 15 of the Lanham Act for continued protection. Though Ripple has never officially commented on the 589 meme, the recurring appearances of the number—across trademarks, addresses, and acquisitions—are enough to keep the XRP faithful inspired.
In the world of crypto, symbols matter. And for the XRP community, 589 remains the most compelling symbol of all.
