A high-stakes meeting is set to take place soon, which could be a turning point in the crypto industry. Ripple’s Executive Chairman and co-founder, Chris Larsen, is all set to meet with the new SEC Chair, Paul Atkins, on May 2, 2025.
With crypto rising as a priority under the Trump administration, the meeting could be a key development for Ripple, XRP, and the crypto industry.
Atkins, who has been the former SEC Commissioner, has already expressed his support for blockchain innovation. At a recent roundtable conference on April 25, he said that the SEC should stop holding back crypto growth and should work on developing clear, supportive rules.
What To Expect From the Meeting?
The agenda for the meeting is not confirmed yet, however, a settlement or resolution of the SEC vs Ripple case is expected. This could set a precedent for how other digital assets are treated in the future.
The possible outcomes could include clarifications on whether XRP is a security, which has been a long-debated issue. There could also be a discussion on how blockchain can improve global payments, which would increase XRP’s adoption.
