Did Trump Just Nuke XRP? Spoiler: Nope. But the drama? Chef’s kiss.
💥 The Rumor Mill: Full Send
“Trump banned $XRP !!”
Yeah, and I’m Satoshi’s twin brother.
Crypto Twitter lit up faster than an altcoin during an Elon tweet. But let’s kill the noise and break this down like adults (or at least like degens who read).
🧢 The Post That Vanished
March 2, 2025. Trump drops a spicy take on Truth Social. Says the U.S. needs a crypto reserve, name-drops XRP, SOL, ADA like he's picking altcoins for a pump-and-dump scheme.
Then poof. Deleted in under 24 hours.
Cue the tinfoil hats.
🕵️♂️ The Plot Thickens (Barely)
Word is, Trump’s love letter to XRP may have been ghostwritten—by Brian Ballard, a big-time lobbyist with alleged Ripple ties.
Trump finds out? Reportedly flips. Possibly cuts the guy off.
But that’s not a ban. That’s just politics with a side of ego.
📉 XRP Blacklisted? Not Even Close
There’s zero executive order.
No ban.
No blacklist.
Just crypto Twitter doing what it does best: screaming into the void and moon-chasing.
🧑⚖️ Enter Bill Morgan (With the Mic Drop)
Legal OG and XRP defender tweets:
“Yep, Trump is furious. SEC cuts the Ripple fine, lifts the injunction. Obviously, XRP is doomed.”
Translation? Sit down, nothing’s happening.
📊 Market Reaction: Flatline
XRP didn’t flinch.
No tank, no pump.
Just sideways chop while people argue over deleted posts.
Because unless Trump comes back online yelling “XRP IS A SCAM – SAD!”, this is just another Tuesday in crypto.
🧠 TL;DR for the ADHD Traders:
Trump posted pro-XRP
Then deleted it
Got mad at a Ripple-linked lobbyist (maybe)
No ban. No blacklist. No apocalypse.
Just vibes and confusion.
Still worried?
Man, I respect the paranoia. But maybe focus more on your risk management than a 78-year-old man’s deleted tweet.
