Expert Says XRP Under Consideration in US Strategic Crypto Reserve, Cites “Reliable Channels”
XRP is being considered as a potential crypto asset for the proposed U.S. crypto reserve following President Donald Trump's recent executive order. The order created a Presidential Working Group on Digital Asset Markets, which will advise Trump on crypto policy and consider a "strategic national digital assets stockpile." While the order does not specify which cryptocurrencies will be included, mentions of XRP have led discussions in the crypto community. XRP's American origin and its legal clarity from the court make it a strong candidate for inclusion. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse advocates for a diversified crypto reserve that includes Bitcoin and other crypto technologies. However, critics claim that Ripple is lobbying against the inclusion of Bitcoin in the reserve by funneling money to politicians. Garlinghouse argues that Ripple's efforts are actually increasing the likelihood of a crypto reserve that includes Bitcoin.
