Former Ripple director Sean McBride has suggested that Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, might be considered for a new crypto-focused position in Donald Trump’s White House. This would be the first such position and could signal the administration’s increasing interest in regulating and promoting innovation in the cryptocurrency industry.
McBride shared his insights on X (formerly Twitter), stating that there is a growing possibility that Garlinghouse could be chosen as Trump’s new Crypto Czar. If true, Garlinghouse would likely step down as CEO to take on the new role, with a possible successor already in mind. This speculation comes amid key developments at Ripple, including the resolution of its long-running legal battle with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). McBride suggested that the timing might be mutually beneficial for both Garlinghouse and Ripple.
