Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse reveals future plans after SEC victory
Ripple has sent a strong signal: the first quarter of 2025 marks a new chapter for the company. With the acquisition of Hidden Road and the long-awaited end of its legal battle with the U.S. SEC, Ripple is ready to reposition itself. In a striking post on X, CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced a major transformation of the well-known XRP Markets Report.
Since 2017, Ripple has published quarterly reports to maintain transparency about its XRP holdings. While originally intended to foster trust, that transparency was later used against the company by the SEC. Now that the lawsuit is behind them, Ripple remains committed to openness — but through a new approach.
XRP Markets Report shifts to real-time updates
Garlinghouse emphasized that the XRP Markets Report will no longer be released as a standalone quarterly publication. Instead, updates about Ripple and XRP will be shared directly through existing social media channels. The core objective remains unchanged: to provide clarity about Ripple’s role within the XRP ecosystem.
Key XRP data will still be available through the official website, ripple.com/xrp. Investors, journalists, and the crypto community can continue to track Ripple’s XRP holdings there. With this move, Ripple aims to further strengthen market trust.

The timing of the announcement is anything but random. Interest in XRP ETPs (exchange traded products) is growing globally, especially among institutional investors. Ripple clearly wants to position itself as a bridge between traditional finance and digital assets.
According to Garlinghouse, this change reflects Ripple’s growing maturity as a company. He describes it as “an evolutionary step,” using past lessons to build a stronger future. The company now focuses on innovation, scaling, and global blockchain adoption.

Ripple is not just celebrating a legal win — it’s opening a new chapter in how it communicates with the world. The updated XRP Markets Report marks a shift from defensive to proactive strategy. And that promises a bold future for both XRP and Ripple itself.
