Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse told Decrypt that many Wall Street leaders are now open to crypto thanks to optimism over Donald Trump's return to the White House.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said Ripple Labs signed more US deals in the last six weeks of 2024 compared to the previous six months before the US election.

Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple’s CEO, has declared that: “2025 is here, and the Trump bull market is real.” The company, battered by years of regulatory setbacks under Gary Gensler’s SEC, is roaring back into the U.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse noted a significant shift in traditional finance leaders' interest in engaging with crypto following the 2024 presidential election. Ripple signed more new clients in six weeks post-election than in the previous six months combined, with a majority of new roles now US-based.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced that 75% of Ripple Labs' job openings are now based in the United States, and the company has closed more deals and partnerships in the US following the November 2024 election than in the previous six months.

Donald Trump's election was widely embraced by the crypto space, and one of the apparent beneficiaries of the President-elect's upcoming re-entry into the White House is Ripple, which overcame a four-year legal struggle with the SEC and is now ready to make crypto great again in its home turf.
