A recent White House report on digital assets fails to mention the XRP token despite its significance in the cryptocurrency landscape.
Mentions in the Report
In the 166-page digital asset policy report published on July 30, 2023, there was no mention of the XRP token, which ranks third with a market capitalization of $186 billion.
Leading Cryptocurrencies
Other projects mentioned in the report include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Chainlink, and Uniswap. Bitcoin secured a staggering 129 mentions, while its creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, was referenced 36 times. Protocols like Chainlink received significant attention, including mention of its CCIP.
Role of Ripple Company
While XRP was overlooked, Ripple, the associated company, was mentioned twice in the report. Ripple was included in a timeline infographic depicting the evolution of the cryptocurrency ecosystem since 2008, featured among some of the earliest crypto companies from 2013, along with Coinbase and Kraken.
Thus, despite the lack of mention of the XRP token, Ripple continues to be a significant player in the cryptocurrency sphere, as reflected in the report.
