Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has called for the US to adopt a diversified approach to its crypto reserves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf a govt digital asset reserve is created \u2013 I believe it should be representative of the industry, not just one token (whether it be BTC<\/a>, XRP or anything else),\u201d said Garlinghouse in a post on X on 27 January 2025.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Moving beyond Bitcoin, Garlinghouse insisted that the broader range of digital assets should be considered for the US financial strategy. To justify this, he wrote, \u201cI own XRP, BTC, and ETH among a handful of others \u2013 we live in a multichain world, and I\u2019ve advocated for a level-playing field, instead of one token versus another.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Some thoughts on maximalism\u2026 let me say this as clearly as I can \u2013 the crypto industry has a real shot, here and now, to achieve the many goals we have in common, IF we work together instead of tearing each other down. This is not, and never will be, a zero-sum game.<\/p>\n

Moving Beyond \u201cDigital Gold\u201d ?<\/h2>\n

Advocating for the crypto industry, Garlinghouse said, \u201cLet me say this as clearly as I can \u2013 the crypto industry has a real shot, here and now, to achieve the many goals we have in common, IF we work together instead of tearing each other down. This is not, and never will be, a zero-sum game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bitcoin\u2019s role as a store of value and its decentralized nature have earned it the moniker \u201cdigital gold.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, powerful political figures and influential financial and crypto industry figures are not only advocating for the US to adopt Bitcoin as national strategic asset, but other countries too.<\/p>\n

To start with, this movement was spearheaded by US Senator Cynthia Lummis and supported by US President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

In an exclusive interview with 99Bitcoins, Paolo Ardoino talked about the possibility of BTC reserves.<\/p>\n

\u201cBitcoin reserves are a very good idea and very intelligent idea,\u201d he said. \u201cI believe that every country should actually look into it. Because eventually it will happen. And you really don\u2019t want to be the last country to start doing a BTC review in your central bank reserves.\u201d<\/p>\n
