On the latest episode of the Crypto Trends Podcast, hosts Robert Croak and Armando Pantoja delve into the significant rise of XRP, once considered a suppressed token due to government and lawsuit issues. XRP has surged, reinforcing their advice on long-term holding and dollar-cost averaging. As XRP reclaims its position as the third-largest cryptocurrency, they discuss the implications of Gary Gensler's resignation and Trump’s tax proposals on this momentum. The episode also explores the related success of Stellar Lumens (XLM), Ethereum’s lag behind other cryptos, and the U.S. government's activities affecting Bitcoin. Additionally, they touch on Trump’s proposal for zero capital gains tax on U.S.-based cryptos and its potential impact on ISO 20222 compliant coins like XRP, XLM, HBAR, ADA, and ALGO.
