Ripple CEO Owns Solana, Says XRP Isn't Always the Best Payment Asset

  • —Garlinghouse: XRP may be the best bridge asset for one transaction while a stablecoin fits another
  • —Ripple CEO confirmed he personally owns SOL and rejects XRP maximalism
  • —Ripple Payments already settles in multiple assets, including its own RLUSD stablecoin
  • —XRP has expanded into the Solana ecosystem via wrapped wXRP
Why it matters: The Ripple CEO's remarks temper expectations for XRP in payments while reinforcing the company's multichain strategy and the growing role of RLUSD.
