During the recent crypto market dip, Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple, liked a community post on X about the XRP price crash. The gesture occurred as XRP fell below $2.00 and institutional interest surfaced at Binance Blockchain Week.
According to Captain Mallard, the post asked the community, “Are you worried about this dip?” He later wrote that the CEO’s like signaled confidence among holders.
XRP’s slide mirrored losses across other tokens during the same period. The like was widely read as a sign that leadership was not overly alarmed by volatility.
At Binance Blockchain Week, Garlinghouse highlighted institutional flows and said, “XRP ETFs have already raised over $700 million in just a few weeks.” (Ed. note: this figure underscores growing institutional participation.)
Investor sentiment improved modestly after his public reaction and appearance. Market volatility remains active, but the CEO’s responses helped steady some holder confidence.
