Ripple Urges DOGE Oversight as Garlinghouse Rumors Spark Crypto Policy Buzz
Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty has urged Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to audit the SEC’s spending, highlighting the agency’s enforcement failures. The call comes on the heels of Ripple’s legal victory over XRP’s status and comes amid rumors that CEO Brad Garlinghouse is meeting with President-elect Donald Trump. Speculation suggests Ripple could influence crypto policy as Trump plans to replace SEC Chairman Gary Gensler. Meanwhile, Dogecoin has surged 150% in a month, buoyed by Musk’s leadership on DOGE.
