Ripple CEO Says US Can Still Become the World’s Crypto Capital
In a statement shared by Cointelegraph, Garlinghouse said, “Making America the crypto capital of the world is within reach - let’s finish the job.” His remarks underscore his view that the United States has an opportunity to establish itself as a leading jurisdiction for the cryptocurrency sector.
Garlinghouse Calls for Continued Crypto Push
Garlinghouse’s comments frame the goal of making the United States the world’s “crypto capital” as achievable, while emphasizing that further work is still required.
The Ripple executive did not provide specific policy measures, regulatory changes or timelines in the statement. As a result, his remarks represent a broader call to continue efforts rather than an announcement of a new initiative.
The statement also comes from a prominent executive at Ripple, a company closely associated with the development and use of blockchain-based payment technology. Garlinghouse has been an active participant in discussions surrounding cryptocurrency regulation and the role of the United States in the digital asset economy.
US Crypto Leadership Remains a Key Industry Issue
The question of how the United States approaches cryptocurrency has become an important issue for companies operating across digital assets, payments and blockchain technology.
Garlinghouse’s statement reflects a focus on maintaining momentum toward a more prominent role for the country in the sector. However, the post itself does not identify which specific steps he believes should be completed or what policies would be necessary to achieve that objective.
For the cryptocurrency industry, the distinction is important because a declaration of ambition does not establish a change in regulation or market conditions. Garlinghouse’s comments therefore remain a statement of his position on the United States’ potential role in the global crypto industry.
Ripple CEO Urges Industry to “Finish the Job”
By saying that becoming the world’s crypto capital is “within reach,” Garlinghouse characterized the objective as one that can still be achieved. His call to “finish the job” suggests that he views existing efforts as incomplete, although he did not specify the particular initiatives or developments to which he was referring.
Cointelegraph reported the remarks through its X account, preserving Garlinghouse’s statement as the central point of the update. No additional details about a new Ripple program, regulatory proposal or government action were included in the post.
For now, the specific measures Garlinghouse considers necessary to complete that effort remain unstated.
