Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse To Attend White House Crypto Summit
In an X post, FOX Journalist Eleanor Terrett confirmed that Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse will attend tomorrow’s White House Crypto Summit. Before now, it was uncertain if Garlinghouse would attend the Summit as he hadn’t mentioned anything in such regard.
Garlinghouse’s attendance at the Summit is significant as he will be representing the Ripple and XRP community. The Summit is particularly of interest to the XRP community as Donald Trump could give more details about the proposed Crypto Strategic Reserve, just days after the US president announced that XRP will be in the Reserve.
Meanwhile, Terrett also revealed some other crypto stakeholders who will attend the Crypto Summit. They include Chris Giancarlo, the former chairman of the US CFTC; Kris Marszalek, the CEO of Crypto.com; and Gemini’s founders Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss.
Robinhood’s CEO Vlad Tenev, Coinbase’s CEO Brian Armstrong, and Kraken’s CEO Arjun Sethi will attend the White House Crypto Summit. As CoinGape reported, MicroStrategy’s Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, JP Richardson, CEO of Exodus, and Matt Huang, co-founder of Paradigm, will also attend alongside the Ripple CEO and other stakeholders.
White House AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks confirmed that Terrett’s list looks correct. He noted that the Summit is not a conference but a roundtable. As such, while they appreciate the interest shown by several stakeholders, they intend to keep it small to have a “meaningful conversation.”
