Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse reportedly met with U.S. President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago to discuss the future of digital assets and regulatory clarity in the United States.

The meeting, which highlights Ripple's continued efforts to engage with key political figures, is believed to have focused on the role of blockchain technology in modernizing financial systems and fostering innovation.

Trump, who has historically expressed skepticism toward cryptocurrencies, reportedly showed interest in understanding how Ripple's technology could enhance cross-border payment systems and maintain America's competitive edge in the global financial landscape.

The discussion could mark a pivotal moment in shaping the regulatory approach to blockchain and cryptocurrencies in the U.S.
