在 SEC 事件发生之前， XRP是第二大最有价值的加密货币
Ripple的首席执行官 Brad Garlinghouse 告诉 NBC 的 Trina Robinson，在美国 SEC 干预之前， XRP是第二大最有价值的加密货币。加林豪斯表示，政府任意挑选加密货币的赢家和输家，而不是像其本意那样为数字资产提供公平的竞争环境。
Ripple老板表达了他的失望之情，称Ripple与美国 SEC 之间漫长的法律斗争让XRP家族感到沮丧。他提到， Ripple已经花费了超过 1.5 亿美元来抵御美国 SEC 的非法战争，但他对该案在不久的将来得到积极结论仍持乐观态度。

Garlinghouse was adamant about the U.S. SEC’s negative effects on XRP prices, pointing out that the token’s price had plummeted 15% since the ‘rogue’ agency’s appeal nearly a fortnight ago. He insisted that XRP was ahead of ETH as the second most valuable crypto project before the U.S. SEC filed what he termed as an unethical lawsuit against Ripple. Garlinghouse disapproved of the agency’s approach to its case against Ripple, saying that it was the government’s job to ensure equal opportunities.
The Ripple boss emphasized the difficulty of growing XRP domestically to its full potential against the U.S. SEC’s headwinds but said the company was committed to unlocking the U.S. market. Currently, over 95% of Ripple’s customers are outside the U.S., but Garlinghouse believes that this narrative will change once the conflict with the U.S. SEC is laid to rest.
The crypto mogul said he was positive about Ripple’s triumph in the long run, lightly suggesting that the XRP community would probably look back at this ‘chapter’ five years from now and just ‘chuckle.’
“Future generations will see us who bought $XRP under $5 the same way we see baby boomers who bought houses for under $20k.”

Garlinghouse remained generally optimistic about the U.S. market and domestic investors, perhaps anticipating a crypto-friendly environment under Trump’s administration, which he implied at the beginning of the interview. He envisioned a future where regular Americans would use XRP to make cross-border payments ‘just like sending emails.’
XRP flips DOGE after years away from the top
CoinGecko’s data revealed that XRP rose 102.7% in the last seven days to trade at $1.17, flipping the world’s largest memecoin DOGE, to become the 6th largest token by market cap. XRP flipped DOGE on Sunday night when its market cap grew to over $63 billion. As of now, XRP’s market cap is at over $64 billion against DOGE’s $54 billion.
XRP holders who’ve held on to their bounty since the U.S. SEC’s lawsuit in 2020 – that triggered the XRP plunge – benefited from recent market activity with a lot of enthusiasm for the token’s ‘possible’ future growth. Perhaps even back to its 2018 position as second only to Bitcoin, according to the International Business Times. Recent speculation about Gary Gensler’s resignation has also pumped XRP prices, wrote the IBT. One XRP holder regretted not investing more in XRP in the past but insisted that buying now would still be a good idea.
