$XRP Surges as Ripple CEO Joins Trump at White House Crypto Summit
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse joined President Donald Trump and other crypto industry leaders at the White House for a meeting focused on clearer crypto rules and U.S. innovation.
Garlinghouse emphasized that crypto is no longer a niche industry, citing that nearly one in four Americans now hold cryptocurrency, with 67 million people invested.
The meeting came as $XRP recovered from the $1 area, with the fresh regulatory movement helping improve sentiment around the token.
Trump called on Congress to pass a fair version of the CLARITY Act, which could open the door to the next wave of innovation in digital assets.
