Is XRP being touted as a 'National Strategic Currency'? Rumors swirl, but the truth is emerging!

Yesterday, a shocking rumor shook the cryptocurrency world: XRP will be designated as a 'National Strategic Reserve Asset' by the SEC of the United States, and former official Paul Atkins was rumored to personally announce it at 1 PM Eastern Time. However, there was no official confirmation of the news, leading to chaos in the community as investors frantically sought the source of information.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently expressed strong confidence in XRP's future prospects during a Bloomberg interview, mentioning its potential inclusion in the White House's digital asset reserve plan. He even boldly predicted that an XRP ETF would appear before the end of the year, but he did not confirm any official empowerment.

Meanwhile, although ProShares' XRP futures ETF has received approval from the SEC, it will not launch on April 30 as rumored. Bloomberg analysts clarified that the related rumors stemmed from a misreading of old documents, causing temporary confusion in the market.

While the spot ETF is still undecided, XRP remains resilient with an increase of nearly 10% over the week. Amidst the storm, with truth and falsehood hard to distinguish, what is the fate of XRP? Stay tuned for the next developments!
