In 2024, Ripple did show up. Back then, the U.S. was still under the rule of Biden administration and Ripple continued fighting against the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) in court. At the time, the SEC was helmed by Gary Gensler who initiated more than a hundred enforcement actions across the cryptocurrency industry. First of all, Gensler continued the lawsuit against Ripple started by the previous SEC chairman Jay Clayton on his last day in the office in late December 2020. By now, this long legal war has ended in a settlement between Ripple and the SEC under the leadership of a new pro-crypto chairman Paul S. Atkins.

That was a real campaign, through which Ripple made several large investments and participations. Lauren Belive said: “We went to the DNC. We invested in the RNC and participated throughout the campaign cycle.” This resulted, she said, that the U.S. now has “the most pro-crypto Congress, as well as a pro-crypto president.” Ripple also attended Donald Trump’s inauguration and the inaugural White House Crypto Summit. Currently, Ripple is working with the Congress to help it shape up a fair and stimulating cryptocurrency regulation framework. “We are excited about all the potential that there is to come,” Belive said.
