XRP Healthcare is the most recent Web3 startup to endorse the former as Donald Trump and Kamala Harris continue to compete for votes.
The healthcare startup XRP Healthcare, founded on the XRP Ledger, has publicly endorsed Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump.
The organization responded to the 78-year-old politician’s post on X by using the hashtag #Trump2024Vance to show its support. This action demonstrates that the most prominent protocols are progressively expressing their endorsement of their preferred candidate.
Donald Trump & Harris are crypto community’s rally focal points
The strain is increasing as the United States 2024 election is only two months away. Recently, there have been fluctuations in the odds of victory for Donald Trump and his opponent, Kamala Harris. Web3 leaders have been providing cryptocurrency donations to the “crypto president,” as he prefers to refer to himself.
Elon Musk and Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, endorsed Trump after his initial assassination attempt.
Although the DNC candidate only recently adopted a crypto stance, she has also received backing from numerous crypto-related organizations and individuals.
88 current and former top executives have recently endorsed the Vice President. This comprises Ripple Executive Chairman Chris Larsen, James Murdoch, the successor to the Murdoch family media empire, and philanthropist Lynn Forester de Rothschild.
Taylor Swift, a global pop icon, has also endorsed Harris. This resulted in a substantial change in market odds on Polymarket, one of the most prominent prediction markets monitoring the election.
Additional Kamala Harris endorsements From Ripple CEO
In contrast to XRP Healthcare’s endorsement of Donald Trump, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse advocates for the VP.
These covert endorsements elicited a response from the crypto community. It is anticipated that a candidate who is entirely pro-crypto will receive the backing of the broader crypto community and the most prominent participants. Consequently, numerous industry professionals were disappointed with the Ripple CEO’s decision.
Nevertheless, Garlinghouse recommended that they maintain an open-minded perspective, asserting that the crypto industry requires only clarity and unambiguous regulation.
Donald Trump has declined to participate in an additional debate with Kamala Harris. While discussing his Truth Social, the former president emphasized that the polls indicate that he emerged victorious in the debate on Tuesday of last week. Consequently, he officially disregarded the prospect of a “rematch.”
Given the escalating border crisis and the deteriorating economy, both candidates maintained their use of their respective platforms to emphasize their qualifications for the position.
