Ripple CEO Reaffirms XRP Commitment at Bitcoin 2026

[AIcash]

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse pushed back against criticism at the Bitcoin 2026 conference, making it clear the company remains deeply committed to XRP.

Garlinghouse stated Ripple is still the largest holder of XRP and is focused on making it “the most useful, liquid, and trusted digital asset.” The remarks directly counter narratives that Ripple has shifted away from XRP in favor of enterprise payment solutions.

His message: XRP and Ripple’s institutional products are meant to grow together—not compete.

The real test being measurable adoption and transaction growth is accurate and has also been the real test for approximately eight years, at some point the gap between stated vision and demonstrated metrics becomes the story rather than the vision itself.
