$XRP Retreats Amid News Circle Rebuffed Ripple's Takeover Offer
Ripple has reportedly not yet considered whether it should make another offer $XRP is down nearly 2% in the day following the takeover rejection Ripple has been busy acquiring companies over the last two years Just last month, Ripple agreed to acquire prime broker Hidden Road for $1.25 billion XRP prices retreated overnight after a new report revealed that Circle Internet Group Inc., the issuer of the popular USDC stablecoin, rejected a takeover bid from Ripple valued between $4 billion and $5 billion. Ripple, which is the largest corporate holder of the XRP crypto coin and oversees the development of the XRP Ledger blockchain, has yet to decide on whether it should make another offer to acquire the prominent stablecoin issuer, Bloomberg reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter. Circle, on the other hand, has been working on an initial public offering (IPO) in the United States. Ripple's offer was supposedly made less than a month after Circle applied for an IPO. "We do not comment on market rumors," a Circle spokesperson said in a statement regarding the matter. Ripple already has its own stablecoin, the RLUSD, so it is unclear why it is attempting to acquire a stablecoin issuer. $XRP Dips Amid News As soon as news of the supposed takeover rejection spread, XRP prices started to dwindle. Data from CoinGecko showed that the popular cryptocurrency is down nearly 2% in the day. The digital asset has been struggling to reach $3 again in recent weeks amid a broader downturn in the crypto market. Still, the XRP community remains steadfast and have been actively using the coin, as the latest data showed that trading volumes in the last 24 hours passed $3 billion. $XRP price late April 30, 2025 CoinGecko Ripple's Takeover Frenzy The reported bid to acquire Circle comes as Ripple has been cleaning up on its legal woes in the U.S., where President Donald Trump has promised he will make the country the global crypto hub. In recent years, Ripple has made some acquisitions, and the Circle offer may be part of its greater plans to expand its fintech and blockchain business. Early in 2023, Ripple acquired Swiss digital asset custodian Metaco for $250 million to expand its custodial, issuance, and settlements on tokenized assets. Later that year, the blockchain and fintech firm acquired Nevada-based chartered trust company Fortress Trust but details about the acquisition's financial terms were not revealed. Fortress Trust has a specialty in crypto and Web3. Early last year, Ripple said it has closed its acquisition deal of enterprise-grade digital assets platform Standard Custody & Trust Company, a regulated entity. Finally, just last month, Ripple agreed to acquire prime broker Hidden Road for $1.25 billion in one of the known largest deals in the crypto space. It remains to be seen what Ripple plans if it completes an acquisition of a stablecoin issuer and whether Circle will consider a subsequent, much higher takeover offer.

Trump's Media Company Mulls Utility Crypto Token, Digital Wallet For Truth Social
Donald Trump's media company wants to go deeper into the crypto said it is exploring the possibility of a 'utility token within a Truth digital wallet' Details are scarce about the said crypto token and which crypto team or firm will develop the wallet Many crypto users on X urged the president to refrain from launching another crypto token $TRUMP prices plunged as news of TMTG's plans spread across social media U.S. President Donald Trump's media company, Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), informed shareholders Tuesday that it is exploring the possibility of launching a dedicated cryptocurrency token for Truth Social and a new digital wallet. Notably, TMTG has already been expanding its business to include fintech, including a recent partnership with to launch what the parties called "Made in America" exchange-traded funds (ETFs). TMTG Seeks Expanded Crypto Integration The Tuesday shareholders letter first discussed how Truth Social has supposedly paved the way for giving "the American people their voices back." The letter also revealed that there are approximately 600,000 investors "who believe in free speech and other America-First principles" who have steadfastly supported TMTG over the years. Moving forward, TMTG said it is reviewing various means to monetize Truth Social, the company's social media platform. "Additionally, as part of the rewards program, we're exploring the introduction of a utility token within a Truth digital wallet that can initially be used to pay for Truth+ subscription costs, and later be applied to other products and services in the Truth ecosphere," the letter noted. Details about the said "utility" token are scarce, and it is unclear how Truth Social will launch the crypto asset and if it will be created by the same team that worked on Trump's official meme coin. It is also unclear which specific crypto company TMTG will partner with to create the Truth Social digital wallet. Crypto Has Mixed Reactions to the News As news of TMTG's plans spread across the crypto community, there were mixed reactions, with some pointing out how it has negatively affected the TRUMP meme token's price. Many urged the U.S. president to not launch any more tokens, given how many new crypto holders lost money in the Official Trump coin. No more trump coins man — Xander (@baltimore465) April 29, 2025 he is launching another token??? NO MORE WINNING, PLEASE MR PRESIDENT. — Trappy (@J2Trappy_) April 29, 2025 "Not sure if I like this, everything $TRUMP related still kind of gives me shivers," said one user. not sure if I like this, everything $TRUMP related still kind of gives me shivers — Chilly_MC_Frost (@abstractist99) April 29, 2025 One X user recommended that Truth Social adopt stablecoins for its subscription system "and leave it at that" instead of launching a separate utility token for the platform. Trump has yet to make an official statement regarding his media company's future plans, but it could also be due to early concerns around his crypto ventures that some critics said posed conflicts of interest. Meanwhile, the president appears to still be an ally of the crypto space, although not much progress has been made since he ordered the establishment of a strategic Bitcoin reserve and a digital assets stockpile. He recently invited top TRUMP meme coin holders to dinner, sending the token's price skyrocketing. It did plunge soon and remains down significantly from its January all-time highs above $70. © Copyright IBTimes 2024. All rights reserved.
