The crypto industry is buzzing with reports that Trump's team might be eyeing American-made cryptocurrencies for a national reserve strategy.
Bitcoin’s new all-time high could be a major boon for XRP and other crypto projects, especially with Trump’s team reportedly considering American-made cryptocurrencies for a national reserve strategy.
The crypto industry is buzzing with reports that Trump’s team might be eyeing American-made cryptocurrencies for a national reserve strategy. The plan could include some familiar names – XRP from Ripple, Solana, and the USDC stablecoin backed by Coinbase and Circle.
Things got especially interesting when Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse was spotted with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, right around the same time as reported meetings with Coinbase’s CEO Brian Armstrong.
The timing couldn’t be better for XRP, which has seen its value shoot up by 500% since Trump’s November election victory. XRP’s remarkable journey started in late 2024, breaking through major price barriers that had seemed untouchable for years.
It pushed past $1 in November, hit $2 in December, and recently touched $3 in January 2025. This surge has gotten so much attention that XRP briefly overtook Bitcoin in Google searches, with speculation that it could even catch up to Ethereum’s market value this year.
The potential shake-up at the SEC could add more fuel to XRP’s fire. With Gary Gensler stepping down and crypto-friendly Mark Uyeda stepping in as acting chair, the regulatory policies might become more welcoming.
Paul Atkins, Trump’s pick for SEC Chair, is known for supporting crypto innovation, which could help ease the regulatory pressures that have been weighing on Ripple.
Some crypto analysts on TikTok that have huge followings, such as Crypto Bitlord, predict that XRP goes through a vertical-style black swan and that it will go “straight upwards without warning”.
