Crypto pundit All Things XRP (@XRP_investing) has raised questions about Eric Trump’s consistent public praise for Bitcoin and Ethereum while remaining silent on XRP.Despite XRP’s numerous advantages over its competitors and growing adoption, neither Eric Trump nor his family-backed venture, World Liberty Finance, has acknowledged it in any capacity.All Things XRP drew attention to Eric Trump’s comments from early 2025, where he publicly praised Ethereum, saying it was a great time to buy the asset, and sharing his optimism during a time when the broader market showed signs of strength. Days later, he also voiced bullish views on Bitcoin.However, despite XRP’s established utility and relevance in the digital asset ecosystem, no similar comments have ever been made.World Liberty Finance’s Portfolio Leaves XRP BehindWorld Liberty Finance has followed Eric Trump’s lead. The project’s portfolio includes Ethereum, Bitcoin, and stablecoins. According to All Things XRP, the company invested approximately $48 million in Ethereum this year alone. XRP, on the other hand, is excluded.We are on twitter, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1— TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) July 15, 2023This has drawn attention given that the digital asset was once included in early discussions about forming a U.S. crypto reserve under the Trump administration, and mentioned specifically by the president when he made the announcement. Eventually, only Bitcoin remained in that plan, leaving XRP out without explanation.Reasons Why the Trumps are Ignoring XRPOne factor that may explain the distance from XRP is its complicated legal history. All Things XRP pointed to the prolonged legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Although the SEC has agreed to withdraw its appeal, the XRP community waits for the official announcement. This has created panic and uncertainty among market participants.Another explanation offered by the pundit is the strategic focus of World Liberty Finance. The project appears to be centered around Decentralized Finance (DeFi).Ethereum and Bitcoin are notable players in this space, but XRP’s primary use case revolves around cross-border payments, which do not align with DeFi objectives. This divergence might explain why Trump’s crypto venture has not adopted the digital asset.Optics and Timing Could Be KeyThe Trump brand has a reputation for aligning itself with dominant narratives and avoiding controversy. Engaging with XRP could invite criticism or unwanted political attention, especially in a campaign environment.Additionally, All Things XRP suggested that the silence may not be a dismissal, but a calculated delay. If regulatory clarity around the digital asset strengthens further, World Liberty Finance might revisit its stance.Disclaimer: This content is meant to inform and should not be considered financial advice.
