An electrifying reveal precluded the much-anticipated Ripple party from its CEO, Brad Garlinghouse. When Ripple enthusiasts thought the night would be about lavish parties and upbeat celebrations, Garlinghouse switched up the game, unveiling something truly personal.

A Permanent Tribute to XRP’s Triumph

The chief honcho of Ripple showcased a fresh tattoo on his right hand. But this wasn’t just any ordinary ink. The tattoo featured the XRP logo and, more importantly, carried with it a date that holds immense significance for every XRP aficionado.

The etched date “07-13-2023” immortalizes the day XRP clinched a groundbreaking non-security ruling from a U.S. court. The ripple effects of this inked declaration reached far and wide, prompting a wave of admiration and surprise.

Party: Pure Celebration, No Announcements

Despite swirling rumors and the community’s buzzing anticipation of a major announcement at the New York celebratory bash, Garlinghouse decided to set the record straight. He clarified that the evening was meant purely for merriment, commemorating XRP’s landmark victory over the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. “Tonight’s event is all about rejoicing in our shared success,” emphasized the jubilant CEO.

Reactions Pour In

Garlinghouse’s tribute garnered quite the attention, not just within the XRP community but far beyond. One of the notable responses came from Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer, David Schwartz.

He joyfully chimed in, sharing his whimsical take on the tattoo saga. Admitting his interest in getting such a tattoo, Schwartz added a humorous twist, suggesting that while he fancied the idea, certain traditions and, of course, the cost of tattoos held him back.

All in all, in an evening that was set to be remembered for the festivities, Brad Garlinghouse’s permanent commitment to XRP’s victory truly stole the show.
