The post XRP News Today: Ripple CEO Confirms Meeting with Donald Trump Amid SEC Battle appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Ripple is the cryptocurrency organisation which has suffered the most during the Biden administration. It recently entered into a fierce legal battle against the US Securities and Exchange Commission, challenging the regulator’s decision to appeal a US court judgement supporting the company’s argument that XRP is not a security.

Interestingly, ending speculation regarding a high-level meeting between Donald Trump and Brad Garlinghouse, a recent post on X by Good Morning Crypto reveals that Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse confirmed his meeting with Donald Trump during his latest conversation with a prominent media house. The revelation has triggered discussions among cryptocurrency enthusiasts, with some showing disbelief and others expressing excitement. Here is what you should know about the significant development. 

Ripple CEO’s Meeting with US President-elect 

The post asserts that Garlinghouse confirmed his meeting with Donald Trump during his latest media conversation. However, it provides no hint about when and where the meeting took place, whether there were any other participants, and what they discussed. Instead, the post calls for crypto enthusiasts to comment on what, they believe, were the key topics discussed during the meeting.

Crypto Community Reactions 

Some, like crypto enthusiast Craig Hoqf, opine that Ripple primarily addressed the challenges it faced from the US SEC during the Biden administration. The possibility for such a discussion is high considering Ripple is currently fighting a contentious legal battle against the US regulator. 

They discussed the shit storm that XRP has went through because of Gary Gensler and his cronies over a nice supper. After supper they possibly went to a movie together and watched “Rigged, exposing the SEC’s war on crypto” ? ….that would have been a hot date night!

Highlighting the potential of XRP to help the country overcome its national debt crisis, many enthusiasts, like Kapetas95, note that the Ripple CEO’s discussion with the US President-elect mainly centered on how XRP could support the country’s economy.   

Discuss what can XRP do for our country and what can our country do for XRP

And: generational wealth hence pay off the national debt left behind by the Democrats

Some crypto enthusiasts, like Rise.X.Against, suggest the possibility of Trump creating a XRP national reserve, similar to his Bitcoin reserve plan.   

They looking at how to integrate XRP into the new financial system, how the US Govnt can potentially hold a reserve of XRP, similar to Bitcoin, as Ripple has ties to all the major markets around the world. Etc etc etc etc . 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

However, many, like crypto enthusiast Spiritual X, question the authenticity of the revelation made by Good Morning Crypto. 

Still technically not confirmed dude. False headline. It could be or perhaps it’s even likely to be true based on his response but it was not confirmed by CEO Brad Garlinghouse

XRP’s Future Potential 

When people ask me. Do you thinks $XRP can go to $10?
The odds are getting stronger.

— Julio (@Jaycronion) November 15, 2024

Many crypto experts, like Julio, express confidence in the future growth of XRP. Julio predicts that the XRP market could reach $10 in the future. 

In the last seven days, the XRP market has seen a surge of 76.8%. Notably, in the last 24 hours alone, it has experienced an impressive rise of 20.5% – significantly higher than BTC’s 4.3%, ETH’s 2.5%, SOL’s 6.3% and BNB’s 1.6%. 

On November 5, the price of XRP was around $0.5053. Since then, it has climbed by approximately 94.25%. 

In conclusion, while the alleged meeting remains unconfirmed, speculation has reignited debates about XRP’s role in the US economy and crypto regulation.  

How High Will XRP Go

XRP is expected to range between $0.512 and $0.792 in 2024, with an average price around $1.07

Can Xrp Reach 1000

XRP is currently priced at $0.953, and reaching $1,000 would require an enormous increase. However, developments in the XRP ecosystem could drive significant price growth in the future

Why Is XRP Pumping

XRP is pumping due to favorable regulatory changes in the U.S., investor optimism, and growing interest in XRP futures, which have contributed to its recent 17% surge.
