XRP as a U.S. reserve asset? Why speculations are rising

- XRP’s rise signals potential U.S. Treasury inclusion, boosting Ripple’s adoption and market value
- Legal shifts under the Trump administration could reshape XRP’s future, outpacing competitors like Dogecoin.
As the new Trump administration begins, the market is poised for potential transformations, with XRP emerging as a front-runner in the evolving U.S. digital asset landscape.
Following President-elect Trump’s nomination of Paul Atkins to head the SEC, many believe the legal challenges facing Ripple could be revisited or dropped entirely, which could mark a turning point for the crypto asset.
With rumors swirling about the U.S. Treasury potentially holding digital assets, could XRP find itself in the U.S. Treasury’s vaults as a reserve asset?
