XRP Gains Legal Clarity as Trump Eyes Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

XRP Gains Legal Clarit
Ripple Labs is on the verge of a major breakthrough as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposes classifying XRP as a strategic financial asset, not a security. This move aligns with the Trump administration’s broader plan to build a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, where XRP could play a vital role in unlocking massive liquidity.

The SEC’s proposal suggests that XRP could help unlock $27 trillion from global nostro accounts, starting with $5 trillion in U.S. holdings. Of that, $1.5 trillion could be released through XRP-based infrastructure to facilitate Bitcoin purchases for national reserves.

XRP as a Payment Network, Not a Security

As part of the SEC’s revised stance, XRP is now being considered a payment network, setting the stage to resolve Ripple’s long-standing legal challenges. This shift could formally end the years-long dispute between Ripple and the SEC, offering much-needed clarity for investors and institutions.

The proposal also recommends that the Department of Justice lift banking restrictions and encourages Federal Reserve and OCC mandates for integrating XRP-based liquidity solutions using the XRPL network.

A New Bull Run Ahead?

With legal clarity within reach, XRP is poised for a significant breakout. Analysts suggest that this could ignite a bull run similar to 2017, especially as XRP recently broke out of a six-year consolidation phase—entering a potential price discovery phase in the near future.

The SEC proposes a standard 24-month implementation timeline or an accelerated 6–12 month schedule—marking a new era for Ripple and XRP.
