Ripple’s Top Dog Whines About Cancelled Congress Meeting—What a Wally! 🤪

Oh, darling, the grand event was set to discuss some delightful pro-crypto legislations—think stablecoins and every fancy reform under the sun. Excitement, right? Or so we hoped.

Garlinghouse, that ever-optimistic fellow, chuckled about how bipartisan talks are finally recognizing that crypto isn’t just a one-trick pony but a fine multichain circus. Still, he couldn’t resist dropping a voice note of utter despair about Senator Lummis—the darling of Congress with a penchant for crypto—deciding she’d rather sip tea than meet him.

“As Chair of the Digital Assets Subcommittee, [Senator Lummis] canceled a meeting with me (and won’t reschedule),” he lamented on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter, of course). Clearly, she’s too busy with her glamorous calendar.

Our dear Garlinghouse pointed out that Lummis hails from Wyoming—one of those crypto-friendliest states—you know, where everyone’s wallet is bursting and dreams are big. He begged her to lead the charge for the entire industry and even offered a friendly chat—live on X Space or somewhere fancy enough to validate his cause.

“Let’s chat about making the U.S. the crypto capital of the world,” he proclaimed with all the subtlety of a Broadway show tune. He even aligned his call to action with Trump’s lofty ambitions of American digital dominance—truly inspiring, isn’t it?

Despite this political soap opera, Garlinghouse vowed to push on, promising to do ‘everything possible’—including bribery, extortion, and maybe a little charm—to turn this chaos into clarity and innovation. Because, darling, in the chaotic world of crypto, persistence is key! 😉

This little episode just proves—when it comes to regulation, dialogue, and leadership—sometimes even the most pro-crypto folks can’t agree on where to get the martinis. Cheers to that! 🥂
