Ripple CEO Sparks XRP Hype with Major XRPL Apex 2025 Announcement!
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has hinted at an exciting event set to take place in June. He confirmed the XRPL Apex 2025 event will take place in Singapore from June 10 to 12. This annual event is a major gathering for XRP Ledger enthusiasts and could have a strong impact on XRP’s price.
Speakers at XRPL Apex 2025
From June 10, Ripple is going to host its much-awaited event, i.e, XRPL Apex 2025. This is an annual event that serves as a major gathering for developers, investors, and enthusiasts of the XRP Ledger (XRPL).
Given its history of significant announcements, the upcoming event could have a direct impact on XRP’s market sentiment.
However, Garlinghouse won’t just be attending—he will be one of the keynote speakers at the event. Alongside him, other top Ripple figures will take the stage, including Ripple CTO David Schwartz, Ripple President Monica Long, and XRPL Commons President David Bchiri.
Their discussions are expected to cover the latest developments in XRP Ledger, Ripple’s plans, and blockchain innovations.
Ripple CEO: U.S. Crypto Boom
Aside from the event announcement, Garlinghouse recently highlighted surprising new data about crypto adoption in the U.S. According to a report from the National Cryptocurrency Association (NCA), 21% of Americans now hold cryptocurrencies, and 75% of them believe crypto has had a positive impact on their lives.
The report also revealed that 70% of crypto holders are men, with many working in construction, technology, and finance. Interestingly, more than half are millennials, while only 15% are over 55 years old.
How Are People Using Crypto?
Meanwhile, the survey also showed how Americans use their crypto holdings. While 52% simply hold onto their assets, about 39% have used crypto for purchases, and 15% have even used it to buy real estate.
Additionally, around 73% of crypto holders want the U.S. to become a global leader in the crypto industry. This data highlights a change in how people view digital assets not just as investments, but as real-world tools for transactions.
XRP Price Outlook
Historically, Ripple-related announcements have influenced XRP’s price movements, as XRP has already seen a surge of 2.5% in the last 24 hours. If any major announcement happens during the event, it will push the XRP price to its ATH.
