Gary Cardone labeled XRP as aligning with oppressive regimes to ensure its survival, targeting ECB President Christine Lagarde. His comments, likening XRP’s financial influence to a harmful virus, sparked rebuttals from XRP supporters, who highlight the absence of official confirmations for ECB’s collaboration with Ripple.
Immediate backlash followed Cardone’s remarks, with prominent figures like Crypto Sensei and attorney Bill Morgan refuting his claims. They emphasized that the ECB is still exploring CBDC options without a finalized decision and criticized Cardone’s characterization of the XRP Ledger’s nature and decentralization.
