Michael Arrington places XRP among his biggest crypto assets
The founder of TechCrunch and CrunchBase, Michael Arrington, publicly revealed that XRP is among his five largest cryptocurrency assets by dollar value, alongside Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Immutable (IMX). The statement quickly generated debate in the crypto community, reigniting discussions about diversification, portfolio strategy, and institutional adoption.
More than just an opinion, Arrington's positioning comes with direct involvement in institutional infrastructure. Arrington Capital recently participated, along with Ripple and SBI Holdings, in an initiative aimed at building an institutional treasury of XRP, focusing on expanding regulated use cases, including DeFi, liquidity, and lending protocols.
This move reinforces a key point: institutional interest in XRP is not limited to the spot market. Recent data shows significant growth in interest for regulated derivatives, signaling that major players are seeking structured exposure to the asset.
Despite past statements about XRP's superior performance over multiple time horizons not fully holding up in current data, the central fact remains: influential figures in the tech and investment sectors continue to allocate capital and resources in the XRP ecosystem.
📌 In a market increasingly driven by institutional adoption and real utility, this type of positioning does not go unnoticed.
