Ripple CEO Pushes XRP Adoption for Trump’s Digital Asset Reserve Plan

Published by

Shortly after taking office, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to create a Presidential Working Group. This group was tasked with developing a federal framework for digital asset regulations and exploring the idea of a national “digital assets stockpile,” according to FOX Business reporter Eleanor Terrett.

Ripple CEO’s View on XRP and U.S. Adoption

Amid ongoing discussions about Trump’s potential Bitcoin reserve, a fresh angle has surfaced.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has suggested that the U.S. government might eventually consider holding XRP tokens. Such a move could boost Ripple’s adoption and potentially lead to a significant increase in XRP’s price.

Although Garlinghouse has not directly linked XRP to a digital reserve, speculation within the crypto community is growing. His push for clearer cryptocurrency regulations has raised expectations for Ripple’s future. Ripple’s earlier meetings with Trump’s administration also hint at potential lobbying efforts to promote XRP.

Trump’s Focus on a Digital Asset Stockpile

In a recent decision, Trump chose to prioritize a digital asset stockpile instead of a Bitcoin reserve. This shift has sparked questions, particularly among investors wary of political donations influencing policy. Ripple’s possible involvement in these developments has added fuel to the ongoing debates about the cryptocurrency market’s future.

The Biggest Obstacle

Adding to the controversy, Pierre Rochard recently claimed on X (formerly Twitter) that Ripple’s lobbying efforts are blocking the creation of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR). Rochard alleged that Ripple is spending millions to undermine the SBR initiative while pushing for CBDCs built on their platform.

Garlinghouse strongly denied these accusations, asserting that Ripple’s efforts align with the broader crypto community’s shared goal of creating a comprehensive strategic reserve—including Bitcoin.

“Unless you are choosing to ignore the core tenants of the POTUS campaign (which aggressively supports American companies and technologies), our efforts are actually INCREASING the likelihood of a crypto strategic reserve (which includes bitcoin).”

Spotlight on U.S.-Based Crypto Assets

A report by the New York Post suggested that the Trump administration aimed to prioritize U.S.-founded crypto assets like XRP, Solana, and USDC as part of its digital asset strategy. Although Trump has not explicitly mentioned Bitcoin or XRP, the focus on American-founded cryptocurrencies could significantly impact XRP’s adoption and price outlook.

XRP’s Market Outlook

As speculation around XRP’s potential role grows, the token is currently trading at $3.14, consolidating despite strong demand. While there is no official confirmation of XRP accumulation by the government, optimism persists. Based on historical trends and current market conditions, XRP’s price could realistically reach between $5 and $20 by the end of Q1 2025.

For now, the industry awaits further clarity on U.S. digital asset policies and Ripple’s evolving role in this space.
