A recent social media post by Crypto Enthusiast Digital Asset Investor highlights a hypothetical AI-generated negotiation involving XRP. The post showcases an AI simulating Trump making a deal with Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse.
Proposed XRP Exchange for Legal Resolution
In the AI-simulated negotiation, Ripple is proposed to transfer 10 to 20 billion XRP from its escrow directly to the U.S. Treasury. This is framed as a strategic reserve acquisition, bypassing taxpayer expenses or market purchases. In return, the SEC case against Ripple would be dropped, granting the company legal clarity.
Vision for XRP in Government Transactions
Beyond regulatory resolution, the AI-generated scenario outlines a broader vision for XRP’s role in government transactions. The Treasury would use XRP for payments amounting to $10–$15 billion annually, including cross-border transactions. The hypothetical scenario also suggests that U.S. citizens could pay taxes using XRP.
Escrow Management and Market Impact
Discussion covers Ripple’s escrow management, proposing that government-acquired XRP be held in a special escrow account for at least three years. This is to maintain market stability while allowing for potential value appreciation. The post raises the possibility of linking XRP to gold reserves, envisioning a gold-backed digital financial system.
Although entirely speculative, the proposed deal has sparked discussion among cryptocurrency enthusiasts. The notion of formal XRP adoption by the U.S. government for official transactions aligns with long-standing hopes within the XRP community.
