Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has noted that even Fed governors are now embracing crypto
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has commented on how rapidly attitudes toward crypto have changed over the past year, describing such a rapid shift as “a new dawn.”
Garlinghouse claims that discussions at this year’s SALT 2025 investment conference feel very dramatically different, with regulators and policymakers being more open to the nascent asset class.
The Ripple boss has noted that even Federal Reserve governors are now embracing crypto, which is a very surprising development for him personally.
Governor Michelle Bowman, for instance, has argued that regulators should abandon their overly cautious mindset toward digital assets.
Instead, they should opt for a proactive approach that would make it possible to foster innovation.
As reported by U.Today, the Fed recently ditched its cryptocurrency-focused supervision program, which is another step toward legitimizing cryptocurrencies.
Governor Christopher Waller also insisted that such innovative technologies as tokenization and smart contracts are not, in fact, scary.
