Getting political?

In a surprising move, Ripple joins Fairshake, a political action committee registered with the Federal Election Commission (FEC). This PAC has raised a whopping $78 million, aiming to support leaders favoring crypto and blockchain technology. Ripple’s political play adds an interesting layer to its overall strategy.
