Ripple CLO to XRP Army: “Compromise Is in the Air”

Regulatory clarity is shaping up as the next big milestone for crypto, and Ripple is front and center. Stablecoin reward programs—long a gray area in U.S. law—are now seeing real progress thanks to high-level talks between banks and crypto innovators.

White House Session Signals Momentum

Eleanor Terrett reported that a focused follow-up White House meeting on stablecoin yields gathered top executives from banks, crypto firms, and trade associations. While no final deal was reached, insiders described the session as “productive.” Ripple Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty summed up the mood: “Compromise is in the air.”

The discussion tackled practical questions about what activities crypto firms can legally offer to users. This is key for platforms like Ripple, which rely on flexible stablecoin programs to expand their services.

Banks Shift Toward Cooperation

One standout moment: banks signaled willingness to consider exemptions for transaction-based rewards—a stance they previously rejected. This marks a shift toward regulated experimentation, opening the door for innovative crypto solutions within traditional frameworks.

Defining “permissible activities” also sparked debate. Crypto leaders advocated for broad interpretations to fuel innovation, while banks pushed for narrower definitions to control risk. The dialogue shows both sides are searching for a middle ground—a positive sign for Ripple and the wider XRP ecosystem.

Who’s Driving the Talks

The session, led by Patrick Witt of the President’s Crypto Council, included Senate Banking Committee staff and top crypto representatives such as Alderoty (Ripple), Paul Grewal (Coinbase), Miles Jennings (a16z), Josh Rosner (Paxos), and Summer Mersinger (Blockchain Association).

Banks sent heavy hitters too, including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Bank of America, Citi, and Wells Fargo, alongside trade associations like ABA Bankers and ICBA. The smaller format allowed for sharper, technical discussions on legal, operational, and regulatory nuances.

What’s Next

More talks are expected before the March 1 White House deadline. Ripple’s active participation signals confidence that a balanced framework—one that fosters innovation while staying compliant—is achievable.

For the XRP Army, this is bullish news. As banks show openness and regulators engage constructively, Ripple’s stablecoin initiatives gain legitimacy and momentum. The message is clear: dialogue, compromise, and collaboration are paving the way for a stronger, more integrated crypto ecosystem.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
