Cardano’s Hoskinson Shouts Out Ripple and XRP Army: Here’s Why

TL;DR

  • The main person behind Cardano’s ecosystem took it to X to praise the “Ripple folks” and representatives from A16Z for their participation in a recent meeting regarding the bipartisan GENIUS Act legislation.
  • Hoskinson said last year that he would spend a big portion of 2025 in Washington, working alongside the Trump administration to develop a comprehensive and fair regulatory environment for crypto.

Although the details he shared about the meeting are scarce, executives from several of the largest US-based crypto companies have been involved in working on the GENIUS Act, which passed the Senate in July and was signed into law by US President Trump.

Experts believe the legislation can reshape cryptocurrency markets, while also enhancing adoption and transparency for stablecoins.

Hoskinson’s praise for Ripple in particular is something that seemed impossible just a year ago. Recall that the two sides had engaged in an online spat for a few years, especially since Hoskinson referred to the XRP Army as “toxic and petty.”

However, both sides cleared the air in late 2024, and reports actually emerged that they could be working on a collaboration.

The speculations only intensified in the following months, especially since the launch of Ripple’s stablecoin (RLUSD). At the time, it was believed that RLUSD would eventually go live on Cardano’s blockchain, but that’s yet to materialize.

The post Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell talks to reporters following the regular Federal Open Market Committee meetings at the Fed on July 30, 2025 in Washington, DC. Chip Somodevilla | Getty Images The Federal Reserve is projecting only one rate cut in 2026, fewer than expected, according to its median projection. The central bank’s so-called dot plot, which shows 19 individual members’ expectations anonymously, indicated a median estimate of 3.4% for the federal funds rate at the end of 2026. That compares to a median estimate of 3.6% for the end of this year following two expected cuts on top of Wednesday’s reduction. A single quarter-point reduction next year is significantly more conservative than current market pricing. Traders are currently pricing in at two to three more rate cuts next year, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch tool, updated shortly after the decision. The gauge uses prices on 30-day fed funds futures contracts to determine market-implied odds for rate moves.

Three officials penciled in three rate reductions next year. “Next year’s dot plot is a mosaic of different perspectives and is an accurate reflection of a confusing economic outlook, muddied by labor supply shifts, data measurement concerns, and government policy upheaval and uncertainty,” said Seema Shah, chief global strategist at Principal Asset Management.
