Ripple CEO says XRP already has regulatory clarity despite ongoing industry uncertainty

At XRP Las Vegas 2026, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated that XRP already has regulatory clarity, dismissing the need to wait for the proposed CLARITY Act. He emphasized Ripple's commitment to XRP's success and highlighted the growing ecosystem around XRP, including real-world financial applications and institutional support like OKX sponsorship. Garlinghouse also warned that missing the CLARITY Act window could delay broader crypto regulation, but Ripple is moving forward confidently, building infrastructure and partnerships as if regulatory clarity is already secured.
