Ah, Ripple. Once again, it’s making headlines, and, let’s be honest, who can blame them? The company has officially partnered with BNY Mellon, which, for those of you who might have been living under a rock, happens to be the world’s largest custodian bank. Naturally, they’re now in charge of safeguarding Ripple’s shiny new stablecoin, RLUSD, which has managed to accumulate a respectable $500 million in circulation. That’s right, folks, half a billion dollars—just another Tuesday in the life of Ripple.
And of course, it didn’t take long for the internet to erupt. Enter Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise, who, in a moment of profound contemplation—or perhaps a caffeine-fueled epiphany—wondered if Ripple was morphing into something entirely different: an “XRP treasury company.” Is it a bold prediction? A slight overstatement? The crypto world had *feelings* about this. Some were all in, seeing it as a big, bold bet on Ripple’s future. Others, not so much—thinking, “Eh, let’s hold the hype train for just a second.” You can almost hear them muttering, “We’ve heard this story before.” 🙄
I wonder if in 12 months, people will call Ripple an XRP treasury company.

Then, in a moment of sheer intellectual grandeur, Horsley appeared on CNBC to discuss why 2025 might just be the year the crypto world wakes up and smells the blockchain. For years, the U.S. government had been giving crypto the side-eye, making investors break out in cold sweats at the thought of regulations. But, and here’s the plot twist, Horsley believes that’s all about to change. Yes, you heard it—lawmakers, regulators, and possibly even the White House (the same place where they try to figure out how to make sense of… well, everything) are warming up to digital assets. Finally. 🎉
Horsley compared the crypto market’s coming-of-age moment to that of the iPhone. You know, that little device you can’t seem to put down? The one that skeptics once scoffed at, saying it was just a fad. Well, now it’s as essential as your morning cup of coffee. In the same vein, Horsley predicts Bitcoin, XRP, and the entire crypto gang will be making their way into mainstream businesses and services. Not just on crypto exchanges anymore. This is big, folks. 🤯
But don’t get too comfortable just yet. Earlier, Horsley had a very *different* take on the U.S. crypto reserve plan that President Trump announced back in March. You know, the one where they plan to include all the big-name cryptos: Ethereum, XRP, Solana, Cardano, and Bitcoin. Horsley wasn’t having it. He argued that Bitcoin should be the *only* crypto to have its place in that reserve. Maybe he’s just a Bitcoin maximalist—or maybe he’s onto something. 🤔
So, there you have it. Ripple’s new partnership and growing regulatory support seem to indicate that crypto might be finally ready to step out of the shadows and into the big leagues. Will we see Ripple as the new king of XRP? Or is this just another crypto fairy tale? Stay tuned. It’s going to be a wild ride. 🚀
