Rumors have swirled that Donald Trump Jr. may be considering purchasing the XRP, adding new speculation about expanding token adoption. Reports suggest that the Trump family may be preparing to invest in the XRP ecosystem. If so, this could mean great support for Ripple’s technology and cryptocurrency’s future role in finance.
Experts believe there is growing interest in XRP
Sal Gilbertie, CEO and co-founder of Teucrium Trading, says the trend for big names and institutions moving towards XRP and other digital assets is just beginning. He explained that Bitcoin still leads the market as a clear “digital gold” and wealth store. However, XRP stands out for its practical cases in cross-border payments and financial services. As Ripple continues to build solutions for banks and payment providers, Gilbertie hopes more investors will see the long-term value of holding XRP.
Cryptocurrency booster
Gilberty also argued that crypto is not a replacement for traditional currency, but a strong complement. “Everyone has to ultimately convert the code into Fiat,” he said, adding that digital assets allow people and institutions to nurture wealth. In his view, cryptocurrency was one of the best things to happen to the Fiat system in decades.
An institutional shift to cryptocurrency allocation
According to Gilbertie, the Treasury Department, businesses, and even wealthy individuals are rethinking their strategies. With the strong performance of the crypto market in recent years, many people are asking why they shouldn’t allocate a portion of their reserves to assets such as Bitcoin or XRP. He described it as “not stupid” diversification given its potential benefits.
XRP, combined with Ripple’s growing partnership in the banking sector, continues to be seen as a token with strong foundations and growth potential for years to come.
