Elon Musk has said that cryptocurrencies in general can be a “valuable bulwark against centralized control” and that they help with individual freedom, but when asked specifically about XRP/Ripple he made it clear it was not an endorsement (nor a rejection) of XRP.
Unlike his very vocal support for Dogecoin (and occasional remarks about Bitcoin), Musk has rarely mentioned XRP explicitly in his public posts or comments — which has led to a lot of speculation in crypto communities.
Because Musk has repeatedly used the letter “X” in his brands (SpaceX, X app, xAI), some XRP fans speculate this could be a subtle connection, but there’s no concrete confirmation Musk is signaling support for XRP.
There have been unverified claims and deleted‑tweet rumors about Musk tweeting about XRP, but none have been confirmed with clear evidence — and even reliable articles emphasize that Musk hasn’t officially endorsed or partnered with Ripple or XRP.
Elon Musk recognizes the broader value of crypto but has not publicly endorsed XRP, and his remarks on XRP have been neutral or indirect.
