XRP is trading at $13.34, up +11.92%, on White House optimism around clearer U.S. rules and the CLARITY Act.
- The meeting involved President Trump, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and other crypto executives.
- XRP gained alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum in Wednesday’s rally and short squeeze; renewed spot XRP ETF inflows added buying support despite weaker U.S. equity indexes and rising Treasury yields. Crypto-specific momentum dominated, with the move appearing to continue the August 19 surge rather than follow a new scheduled U.S. economic release.
