Ripple Expands U.S. Presence Amid Trump's Influence

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has announced significant changes in the company’s hiring strategy, focusing on the U.S. This shift is attributed to Donald Trump's re-election and the revitalization of the crypto sector.

Ripple Expands Its U.S. Presence

Garlinghouse highlighted that, over the past four years, most of Ripple’s hiring was conducted outside the U.S. due to regulatory challenges under former SEC Chair Gary Gensler. However, this trend has reversed with Trump’s return to power. 'For Ripple, this is personal. Gensler’s SEC froze our operations for years. Now, we are growing again in the U.S.,' Garlinghouse said. In the last six weeks of 2024, Ripple signed more deals in the U.S. than in the previous six months.

Trump’s Crypto Plans Revitalize the Sector

Trump’s re-election has sparked a prolonged rally in the crypto market, with significant gains for major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and XRP. XRP’s price surged by 330%, rising from $0.55 to $2.41. Trump has pledged to make the U.S. the 'capital of cryptocurrency,' including plans to establish a national crypto reserve and ensure all Bitcoin mining takes place domestically. While these ambitions energize the market, former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes expressed skepticism about their feasibility, warning that delays could trigger sharp sell-offs.

A New Era for Crypto Companies

Despite uncertainties, the expectations surrounding Trump’s administration have created opportunities for Ripple and other crypto companies. Experts caution that while policies may take time to yield results, the current climate offers a promising start for the sector.

Changes in U.S. policies under Trump’s leadership open new avenues for the growth of the cryptocurrency market. Ripple is already adapting to these conditions, expanding its influence in the States.
