The Trump bull market is real,” Ripple’s CEO declared, pointing to skyrocketing U.S. hires and deals as crypto’s explosive comeback accelerates under the new administration.
Ripple CEO: Crypto’s New Era Is Here and Trump’s Team Is Fueling the Fire
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has voiced strong optimism about the U.S. cryptocurrency market, attributing the shift to the incoming Trump administration and its supportive stance on innovation. In a post on social media platform X on Sunday, Garlinghouse declared:
2025 is here and the Trump bull market is real.
“For Ripple, this is even more personal after Gensler’s SEC effectively froze our business opportunities here at home for years. The optimism is obvious and very deserved,” the executive added.
He also shared that Ripple had seen a dramatic turnaround in its domestic operations, noting that “75% of Ripple’s open roles are now U.S.-based, while over the last 4 years, the vast majority of hires were outside the U.S.” Garlinghouse additionally noted that Ripple had “signed more US deals in the last six weeks of 2024 (since the election) than the previous six months.”
