There were many conversations online that Donald Trump might have put XRP on a blacklist, but what is the truth? Let’s fail.
On March 2, 2025, President Trump issued a statement on social media that published a support for the US “Crypto Strategic Reserve”, including XRP, Solana and Cardano. In this post, he criticized the BIDEN administration’s encryption process and promised to make the United States a global encryption leader. But less than 24 hours the post was deleted.
According to a variety of reports, Trump has been misleading by a lobbyist named Brian Ballard, who gave Trump a phrase for posts. Ballard is said to be related to Ripple Labs, the company of XRP. When Trump learned about the connection, he was angry and broke his relationship with the ballad.
Despite this incident, Trump said, “There is no official statement or evidence that Trump has been on a blacklist or a digital asset is under the ban or restrictions of all kinds of Trump or his team, which looks like a misunderstanding and a personal frustration than a formal policy.
For meaningless people, Ripple had a political relationship between the Trump, including donations to the Trump Sorted Political Commission. Ripple’s chief legal director and CEO met Trump in the past.
Therefore, due to the deleted posts and Trump’s reactions, XRP is not blacklisted and there is no sign of formal fallout. In fact, Coin continues to perform in the market, and some analysts still see as a strong competitor in the current encryption cycle.
To add to the drama, Bill Morgan lawyer smiled in response to the news about X (previous Twitter). He wrote: “You are at the top.
conclusion:
Trump may have been angry with XRP without understanding, but there is no evidence that XRP is posted on a blacklist or banned. This situation also shows the risk of political entanglement in the increase in the influence of encryption lobbyists and the fast -moving digital asset world.
