Lately, everyone’s talking about how #Trump “blacklisted” #XRP . But before you panic or believe the hype, let’s break down the facts.


What Started All This?


On March 2, 2025, Donald Trump posted something big on Truth Social. He suggested creating a U.S. crypto reserve—basically a digital version of Fort Knox. In that post, he specifically mentioned #XRP , Solana ($SOL ), and Cardano ($ADA ).


He also criticized Biden’s crypto policies and said he wants the U.S. to lead the world in crypto. Classic #Trump stuff.


But then, less than a day later, the post disappeared.


What Really Happened?


Sources say #Trump may not have written that post himself. It might have been pushed by Brian Ballard—a lobbyist who’s said to have connections with Ripple Labs (the company behind #XRP ). When #Trump found out, he was reportedly angry and cut ties quickly.


But does this mean #XRP is “blacklisted”?

Short answer: No.


What’s the Truth?


There’s no ban, no blacklist, nothing official. This seems more like a misunderstanding or political confusion—not an attack on Ripple or #XRP .


Also, Ripple has been talking with U.S. lawmakers for years. This isn't new.


It feels more like a scene from a crypto TV drama than something serious.


What Are People Saying?


#XRP lawyer Bill Morgan said:


“You are on top of things. The SEC agreed for the fine to be reduced from $125 million to $50 million and the SEC agreed to the permanent injunction being lifted. Yep, #Trump is furious.”


In short: this drama doesn’t really affect anything.


What Did the Market Do?


Not much. #XRP didn’t crash. $ETH is still above $2,500 and market mood is mostly positive. Unless actual laws change, #XRP is still in the game.


Final Thoughts


#Trump praised #XRP , then deleted the post.


A pro-Ripple lobbyist may have been involved.


#XRP is not blacklisted—there’s no official action.


The crypto world loves drama, but this isn’t a big deal.


Unless #Trump tweets “#XRP IS DEAD” in all caps, there’s nothing serious here.


So, what do you think? Was #Trump smart to back out—or is this just another online overreaction?
