This is huge: Tomorrow is the day when the US officially recognises it's in a war for critical metals against China, and the key metal underpinning the digital age is #Silver.

🚨BREAKING: White House Crypto Chief Says “Bitcoin Is Not XRP” — and “Tens of Trillions Are Coming by The Year End” at Ripple Swell🇺🇸🚀
This might’ve been the most electric interview of @Ripple Swell 2025. Ripple CEO @bgarlinghouse sat across from @patrickjwitt Executive Director of the President’s Council of Advisers for Digital Assets, for a raw, high-level conversation that connected the dots between Washington, Ripple, and the next phase of crypto policy in America. Let's go over it 👇🏼
💥 “Bitcoin is not $XRP — and the market’s going to the tens of trillions.”
Brad asked Witt point-blank where crypto is headed next. Witt didn’t hesitate:
“Before the end of the year, the President wants the Market Structure Bill on his desk. After that, we’re talking about a market worth tens of trillions, with stablecoins proliferating across the globe.”
Then came the quote that turned heads:
“People need to understand — Bitcoin is not XRP. $XRP is not Ethereum. These are different assets serving different roles in the financial system.”
He described it as the decade when blockchain and traditional finance finally fuse, adding:
“The companies that will reshape the world of finance probably don’t even exist yet.”
Brad grinned: “Ripple’s been building the foundation for that moment.”
🗽 From crackdown to clarity — the U.S. flips the script
Witt didn’t sugarcoat the past:
“The previous administration turned crypto into a political issue. They thought if they buried it, it would disappear. It didn’t — it just flourished somewhere else.”
Now, he said, the mission is simple:
“President Trump wants to make the United States the dominant player in crypto again.”
And the playbook is already underway:
✅ The Genius Act — stabilized the stablecoin sector and restored confidence
🏛️ The Market Structure Bill — the next big one, targeting passage before year-end.
📈 Regulatory clarity = acquisition wave
Brad brought up Ripple’s buying spree — GTreasury, Palisade, and more.
Witt connected the dots:
“During the Biden years, there were almost no big crypto acquisitions. This quarter alone? Ninety-five. That’s what happens when you have regulatory certainty. Traditional institutions finally feel safe stepping in.”
He called it a “bullish indicator of maturity” — the moment when crypto stopped being speculative and started being structural.
⚙️ The White House Shutdown is Actually Helping Crypto
When Brad mentioned the record government shutdown, Witt laughed:
“It’s ironic, but it’s actually helping. Senators have fewer other meetings, so we’ve had more time to work with their staffs on crypto legislation.”
Instead of slowing progress, the shutdown gave the White House’s crypto council more direct access to lawmakers.
“We’re still full steam ahead — every day, morning to night,” Witt said.
🤝 On tribalism — “We either hang together, or we hang separately.”
Witt warned that division is a bigger risk than regulation itself:
“We’ll never get a perfect bill. But if we can get to 80% yes, we win. The industry needs unity — or it risks hanging separately.”
Brad agreed instantly:
“Exactly. Ripple’s whole mission has been about connection, not competition.”
“Once this framework is in place, the floodgates open. The industry is going to scale into the tens of trillions — and the United States will lead it.” 🚀
Hey @CEOAdam
I've never come at any CEO in my life-- online or otherwise but enough is enough
Are you going to get off your fat (compromised?) ass + talk to @SECGov about the absurd percentage of volume in OUR $AMC #AMC#AMCSTOCK that someone is routing into DARK POOLS?
Are you working with your PE buddies to drive the stock back into RS territory ?
The AMC community has seen my detailed Time and Sales videos showing price manipulation through DARK POOLING volume as the stock rises (the manipulation removes round lot prints at the top of the chart range, which destroys price discovery)
WHY ARE YOU SILENT ?
You worked for the the Vulture Capitalist (and with them now) so you know the game
AMC revenue is fine, but you always seem to find a way to spend the company into a deficit
-Your friends own those properties you lease
-Your friends run the property management
-Your friends run maintenance
-Your friends blood-suck loan shark level interest *
* It's illegal to treat a publicly traded company as your own private money-making machine and as a ATM for all of your friends in your tribe
YOU'VE BILKED THE COMPANY FOR 100M + during a self-inflicted stock price death-spiral implosion of biblical proportions
YOU STACKED ALL OF THE DEBT PRE-COVID LOCKDOWN -- thanks to your friends @ CFR / WEF / WHO
Shareholders demand you STEP-DOWN IMMEDIATELY !

Crypto investor and influencer Konstantin Galich found dead in Lamborghini in Kiev, Ukraine after flash crash in the crypto markets.
He’s rumored to have lost $10-$30 million and then committed suicide. Probably was recklessly leveraged. Rumors he lost some VIP's money.
@vandell33 So do the limits apply to transactions of selling a token and depositing the proceeds to one’s Uphold USD interest account(?), or do the limits apply to withdrawing from the Uphold USD interest account and depositing to an outside bank?
