Messari Founder Declares XRP “Dead” Amid Ripple Founder’s $10M XRP Donation to Harris Campaign

  • Chris Larsen donates $10 million in XRP to Kamala Harris’s campaign through the Future Forward PAC.

  • Ryan Selkis of Messari criticizes Larsen, calling for “death to XRP.”

  • Bill Morgan calls Larsen’s donation misguided but faulted Selkis’s criticism of XRP.

Chris Larsen, co-founder of Ripple Labs, has donated $10 million in XRP to support Vice President Kamala Harris’s 2024 election campaign through the Future Forward super PAC. This move has drawn mixed reactions from the crypto community.

On Monday, Larsen announced his latest donation via a post on X, emphasizing the need for Democrats to adopt a “new approach to tech innovation, including crypto.” He expressed confidence that Harris would ensure American technology remains a global leader. This latest donation builds on Larsen’s previous support for Harris; he donated $1 million in XRP back in August.

It's time for the Democrats to have a new approach to tech innovation, including crypto. I believe @KamalaHarris will ensure that American technology dominates the world, which is why I’m donating $10M in XRP in support of her. https://t.co/vb9KJA87JK
