- David Schwartz Criticizes Persistent XRP Spam on X — this brief
David Schwartz has expressed concern to the 
XRP community about recurring promotional spam that has flooded posts on his X account. U.Today reported the criticism, describing Schwartz as an XRP veteran who was dissatisfied with the conduct of the repeated messages. The available coverage does not identify the operators behind the posts or connect the campaign to any particular organization.
This is a single-source report, with no second outlet independently confirming the incident or adding information about its scale. The central account is Schwartz’s public objection to what he characterized as unappealing, persistent XRP spam directed at his social-media feed.
The development concerns the quality of online discussion around XRP rather than a protocol upgrade, partnership, regulatory decision, or institutional transaction. Schwartz’s position places emphasis on the behavior of accounts promoting XRP through repeated posts and on the disruption that such activity can create for community members.
XRP was trading at $1.17, down 2.39% over 24 hours and 6.01% over seven days, while its market capitalization stood at $74.31 billion. The broader crypto market was flat at a total capitalization of $2.61 trillion, with 
Bitcoin down 0.22% over 24 hours. The Fear & Greed index stood at 25, labeled Extreme Fear; the supplied coverage does not establish that these market conditions caused the spam or Schwartz’s response.

It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 XRP ≈ ₹117.64 (about $1.16), down 2.3% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 7.7% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
