When Donald Trump Speaks With The Same Rhetoric That The XRP Army Has For Years… You Know That We’ve Always Been The Smartest Community In The World

Always One Step Ahead

Always Too Early….

But Right Now… We’re Right On Time 🫡

[David 'JoelKatz' Schwartz @JoelKatz]

We’ve been seeing more and more players in the payments and stablecoins space launch their own blockchains. To me, that’s a clear sign the market sees blockchain as core financial infrastructure — something we’ve believed in and have been building toward on the XRP Ledger for over 13 years.

Launching a blockchain is hard. Building an ecosystem with developers, liquidity, trust, and real-world usage is even harder. The XRPL has real traction and institutional adoption because it’s been battle-tested, updated, and improved upon for well over a decade.

Some blockchains are built with permissioned validator sets controlled by one entity or a small group. This can provide control and compliance for specific, closed-network scenarios, but it limits reach, resilience, and the ability for anyone to contribute to securing and growing the network. Decentralization vs. centralization is constantly debated and there’s not a single answer that fits every use case for crypto and the concepts themselves have changed in definition over the years.

As many of you know, the XRPL is public and permissionless at its core, with optional permissioned features for regulated use cases. This open foundation makes it adaptable, interoperable, and well-positioned to serve as critical infrastructure for the world’s financial system — connecting assets, markets, and participants seamlessly across borders.

The XRPL was built so fees stay low and predictable, just fractions of a cent, without a separate gas token. You can pay directly in XRP for any issued asset, avoiding the friction and hidden costs of buying another token just to transact. XRP is counterparty-free, accessible by all, and used as a bridge asset with real utility for payments, settlement, and liquidity. (Every transaction on the XRPL uses/burns XRP.)

It’s encouraging to see some newer chains adopt design choices that have long been part of the XRPL’s architecture, like deterministic finality and Proof of Authority-based consensus mechanisms. It shows there’s growing alignment in the industry on the importance of predictable, reliable settlement for financial applications without expensive validation.

Looking forward to the next phase of XRPL innovations, bringing more programmability, compliance-grade capabilities, and deeper liquidity for institutional use.

And to those just getting started… Welcome to the party! The crypto tent is only getting bigger.

Good news for consumers:

While July inflation held steady at 2.7% year-over-year, the near-term trend is even better with the 3-month annualized change down to just 2.3%.

Most importantly — there is no demonstrable negative impact from tariffs.

Goods prices, excluding food and energy, are up even less since tariffs were first implemented, rising only 0.8% annualized.

🔥 UPDATE: The SEC has issued a Litigation Release announcing the resolution of its case against Ripple.

[Hester Peirce @HesterPeirce]

Last week, the SEC's case against Ripple was finally laid to rest. A welcome development for many reasons, including that minds once occupied with litigation now can concentrate on creating a clear regulatory framework for crypto: https://t.co/xU1VrmSnFM

Serving in President Trump’s administration and working alongside our brilliant AI & Crypto Czar @DavidSacks as Executive Director of the White House Crypto Council has been the honor of a lifetime. Together, we have positioned America as the crypto capital of the world. I’m deeply grateful to the industry for its unwavering support — I love this community and all we’ve built together. As I return to the private sector, I look forward to continuing my support for the crypto ecosystem as it thrives here in the United States.

People asking for a “debate” between Chainlink and XRP clearly don’t understand the fundamentals.

There is no debate.

Chainlink is an oracle network.

XRP is a bridge asset designed for global liquidity and settlement.

Two completely different use cases, two completely different layers of the financial system.

Trying to compare them is like arguing over whether TCP/IP or GPS is better…

it makes no sense.

Did I just post my last update ever on the SEC-Ripple case? 😌

[David Sacks @davidsacks47]

President Trump signed two important Executive Orders relevant to the crypto community today:

“Guaranteeing Fair Banking for All Americans” prevents the denial of banking services based on political beliefs, religious beliefs, or lawful business practices. This means unfair censorship campaigns, like the debanking of conservatives or Operation Chokepoint 2.0, can never happen again.

“Democratizing Access to Alternative Assets for 401(k) Investors” will allow more than 90 million American workers, whose retirement accounts are currently limited, to access the same range of alternative assets (including digital assets) that are available to government workers, for better returns and diversification.

Thank you, President Trump, for guaranteeing greater fairness and freedom in our financial system!

Today, we’re acquiring @RailFinancial: https://t.co/5iMYD7RJyC

This strengthens Ripple’s leadership in crypto infrastructure and stablecoin payments by adding Rail’s robust back-office and virtual account capabilities to our global payments network.

Learn how this deal enables institutions to move value faster, compliantly and more efficiently with the most comprehensive stablecoin payments solution available on the market.

[Eleanor Terrett @EleanorTerrett]

🚨JUST IN: A joint dismissal of appeals has been filed by the @SECGov and @Ripple, officially bringing their nearly five-year legal saga to a close.

[PaulBarron @paulbarron]

🚀 SWIFT WARNING: @Ripple just acquired Rail Finance for $200M
This isn't just another crypto acquisition - it's a strategic play that could reshape how businesses move money globally.

What Rail brings to the table:

1. Processes 10% of the $36B global B2B stablecoin payments
2. Turns days-long wire transfers into hours-long settlements
3. "Stablecoin sandwich" tech that bridges fiat and digital seamlessly
4. Virtual accounts & automated back-office infrastructure

Why this matters for businesses:
✅ Cross-border payments that settle in minutes, not days
✅ Costs reduced by 80%+ vs traditional banking
✅ 24/7 settlement (no more waiting for bank hours)
✅ Full compliance & regulatory framework
Ripple now has the infrastructure to challenge SWIFT's dominance in the $3 trillion C/B payments.

[Brad Garlinghouse @bgarlinghouse]

No such thing as the August doldrums at @Ripple…very excited to share that we’re acquiring @RailFinancial!

Ripple + Rail together will be THE go-to provider of stablecoin payments infrastructure for global financial institutions around the world. https://t.co/JzUoHjulZB

[Versan | Black Swan Capitalist @VersanAljarrah]

The question isn’t “when moon” if we’re talking about $XRP. That’s outdated.

The real question is how much longer will artificial suppression hold, when the same institutions enforcing it are getting ready to flip the switch and run the system on the @Ripple XRP infrastructure.
