There are times when everything seems to collapse: thwarted plans, regulatory obstacles, closed doors. Then, without warning, an unlikely event changes the situation. This is exactly what has just happened for XRP. Donald Trump's announcement on the creation of a strategic reserve of digital assets has had the effect of detonation in the crypto universe. The CEO of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse, sees it as long awaited recognition and a strong signal for the industry.
Trump propels Ripple Crypto to the heart of his strategy
The news fell like a bomb yesterday in the evening: Trump launched the idea of a crypto government reserve, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano and, of course, the Crypto of Ripple, XRP. Garlinghouse reacted with enthusiasm on X:
“” Maximalism is the enemy of industry progress. Happy to see that the President of the United States acknowledges that we live in a multi-hole world.»»
A real slap for the drywhich, under the Biden administration, had distinguished itself by its very restrictive positions.
But what does this announcement in concrete terms for the crypto market? By integrating XRP into this reserve, Trump sends a clear message : He recognizes the diversity of altcoins and seems to want to end the arbitrary decisions that have so far weakened the industry. Time of favoritism towards Bitcoin and Ethereum Would it be over?
The dry, which has slowed down Ripple for a long time by continuing it to sell unregistered titles, could well be found in an uncomfortable position.
The impact was immediate : The XRP jumped 30 %, the Cardano ADA by 50 %, and Solana by more than 20 %. Biitcoin, for its part, flew to more than $ 94,000, in a momentum of frantic optimism.
But is this euphoria lasting? What details are still lacking in this reserve and how will it be funded?
A radiant future for XRP or a simple straw fire?
While the Ripple Labs still drags a few legal pots, this announcement falls out. The company is still struggling with a Call of the SEC, despite a first partial victory before the American justice.
Could this political turnaround end these proceedings? Garlinghouse, who will be present at the crypto summit of the White House, hopes to make the lines move.
The Trump administration has already laid a few milestones, with a resolutely pro-Crypto approach. In January, a decree had already mentioned the Creation of a “national stockpile of digital assets”without however specifying the tokens concerned.
Some Bitcoin maximalists had also been disappointed by this lack of explicit mention of the BTC. But Trump's recent posts on Truth Social have clarified things: XRP, Solana and Cardano will be in the game, alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum jugns.
- Bitcoin jumped 9 % in one day, crossing the $ 94,000 mark;
- XRP exploded by 33 %;
- Cardano recorded a dazzling increase of 50 %;
- Solana climbed 20 %.
Are these impressive figures the prelude to a new Bull Run? Cryptocats ignites: ” Trump's publications on Truth Social have just shaken the Crypto market! #Bitcoin exceeds $ 91,000, #eth climbs by 12 % and XRP explodes by 33 %! »»
If the dynamics are maintained, we could see XRP settled in the top 3 of digital assets. But beware of the cold shower if the announcements remain a dead letter.
Thus, like Bitcoin, the crypto of Ripple is the subject of extravagant predictions. Some analysts, inspired by the ambient euphoria, even advance an XRP at $ 18,000. Realism or pure madness? The future will tell us, but one thing is certain: the crypto market has not finished surprising us.
