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.

ABC Also Pulled Jimmy Kimmel’s Predecessor After Controversial Comments

ABC Also Pulled Jimmy Kimmel’s Predecessor After Controversial Comments

The post ABC Also Pulled Jimmy Kimmel’s Predecessor After Controversial Comments appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jimmy Kimmel (Photo by Media Access Awards Presented By Easterseals/Getty Images for Easterseals) Getty Images for Easterseals The shock decision by ABC to pull Jimmy Kimmel Live! “indefinitely” after the late-night host’s remarks about the killing of Charlie Kirk has created a rare moment in modern TV media: A major show abruptly taken off the air, with its network forced into crisis-management mode. Rare, that is, but not unprecedented. What might go unnoticed by many people reacting to the news about Kimmel and his potential cancellation is that this is not the first time ABC has made such a move. In fact, a version of the same thing happened to Kimmel’s predecessor program — Bill Maher’s Politically Incorrect, which once had Kimmel’s slot and which ABC cancelled in the wake of a firestorm around comments Maher made in the immediate aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks. (Notice, by the way, that I said cancelled “in the wake of” and not “because of.” More on that in a moment.) Here’s what happened: Less than a week after 9/11, Maher and a panel were talking about then-President George W. Bush’s use of the word “cowards” to describe the hijackers. “We have been the cowards,” Maher interjected, referencing the practice of “lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That’s cowardly.” But Maher then went even farther over the line: Actually staying in an airplane as it hits a building? “Not cowardly.” You can read more about the ensuing uproar in this ABC news story from 2001, which includes a statement that Maher issued through his publicist: “In no way was I intending to say, nor have I ever thought, that the men and women who defend our nation in uniform are anything but courageous and valiant, and I offer my apologies to…
