Ripple CEO Denounces Allegations, Advocates for Diversified Reserve Strategy

In light of recent allegations against Ripple for supposedly blocking the formation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has refuted these claims and expressed support for a diversified cryptocurrency reserve.

Allegations Against Ripple

Pierre Rochard, Vice President of Riot Platforms, accuses Ripple of trying to hinder the creation of a Bitcoin reserve. He labels Ripple as the main obstacle to establishing Bitcoin as a dominant reserve, claiming the company employs lobbying tactics to undermine Bitcoin’s dominance. Brad Garlinghouse, in response, denied these allegations, stating Ripple is not opposed to a strategic cryptocurrency reserve but supports a more diversified approach involving multiple digital assets.

Commentary from Binance Founder

Changpeng Zhao, the former CEO of Binance, remarked that a strategic Bitcoin reserve is 'pretty much confirmed.' He pointed to the rapid developments in the crypto space and the growing institutional interest in digital assets. Additionally, U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis, a prominent crypto advocate, is pushing for a national cryptocurrency reserve. She previously proposed a one-million-unit Bitcoin reserve last year.

Prospects for a Crypto Reserve

According to Polymarket predictions, there is a 48% chance a national cryptocurrency reserve will be created within the next three months. Reports indicate that a working group is being established to analyze its feasibility and structure. While Bitcoin proponents favor a reserve anchored solely in BTC, Ripple’s advocacy for a multi-token approach contributes to a competing narrative in the digital asset ecosystem.

As crypto adoption accelerates, the establishment of a national cryptocurrency reserve—whether Bitcoin-exclusive or diversified—could mark a significant moment in financial history.
