Kodaira-dimension conjecture for dense p-adic analytic maps

Let XX be a smooth projective variety over Cp\mathbb{C}_p, and let XanX^{\mathrm{an}} denote its analytification. Kodaira-dimension conjecture. If there is a pp-adic analytic map

f:CpXanf:\mathbb{C}_p\to X^{\mathrm{an}}

with Zariski-dense image, then the Kodaira dimension satisfies κ(X)=\kappa(X)=-\infty. This strengthens the stated conjecture of Cherry for K3K3 surfaces and predicts that a dense pp-adic analytic map can occur only for varieties of negative Kodaira dimension. Its status is open.
