Ripple's Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, has refuted claims that Donald Trump criticized Kamala Harris for receiving financial backing from Ripple executives. Alderoty called these allegations 'pure fiction.'

Origin of the Rumors

Rumors began circulating from various media outlets, suggesting Trump accused Ripple of backing Harris instead of him. An Axios report quoted Trump allegedly asking, 'When I needed you, where were you?', without naming the company involved.

Ripple's Response

Stuart Alderoty took to X (formerly Twitter), dismissing the claims as baseless and questioning the credibility of anonymous sources.

Ripple's Consequences

Despite the rumors, Ripple announced a $5 million donation in XRP to Trump's inauguration fund, indicating a desire to support pro-crypto policies.

The rumors about Ripple's political motives have been debunked, but interest in the company's activities in both political and blockchain arenas remains high.
