Don’t forget that Ripple was the largest donor to the largest non-party/candidate superpac in the last election cycle. If you thought they weren’t going to get a seat at the table (and ice out Bitcoiners), you weren’t paying attention.

It's politics. The crypto reserve including XRP doesn't mean they lobbying didn't work. It means that if we didn't lobby, BTC wouldn't have been included at all.


Nice, Brian Armstrong already has a strong super villain look going on.
Am I the only one who doesn't really care about which "coins" (very loosely speaking) the US gov invests in? I'm just genuinely astonished (and yes, I am including the kind of person Trump is, which obviously is a huge part of this) that they're investing in coins at all (is that confirmed, then?).
Yeah I'm sure all you guys are right that lobbying pushed this forward, but it's still insane.
And the entire US crypto reserve will be in Baron Trump's crypto wallet.
