Musk\u2019s public swipe at a recent spending bill kicked things off. Then came Trump\u2019s warning to yank Musk\u2019s government contracts. It got messy fast. And now, some believe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coingecko.com\/en\/coins\/xrp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">XRP<\/a> could come out on top.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Elon Musk-Trump Feud Spurs Crypto Talk<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Musk took to Twitter on June 4 to slam what he called reckless government spending. His post warned of \u201cserious economic risks.\u201d Not long after, Trump fired back. He threatened to pull subsidies and contracts tied to Tesla. That response sent Tesla\u2019s stock tumbling. Investors watched $150 billion in market value vanish in a matter of hours.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Market Moves And Price Swings<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Based on reports, <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bitcoin<\/a> slid more than 5% following the news. It dropped to a low of $100,550 before finding a bit of footing near $102,400. XRP wasn\u2019t spared either. It fell alongside other major coins, though the exact drop varied across exchanges. Traders saw quick declines, then a modest rebound as the dust settled.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">I believe <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@elonmusk<\/a> will do anything to make <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Ripple?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@Ripple<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24XRP&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$XRP<\/a> as a chosen one and use it on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/X?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@x<\/a> while knowing that <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EricTrump?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@EricTrump<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DonaldJTrumpJr?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@DonaldJTrumpJr<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@realDonaldTrump<\/a> will watch <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/worldlibertyfi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@worldlibertyfi<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Bitcoin?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@bitcoin<\/a> crashing in front of their eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Right, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@elonmusk<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Joshua Dalton (@J9Dalton) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/J9Dalton\/status\/1930720363039920406?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">June 5, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>XRP Community Weighs In<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Joshua Dalton, who founded tech services firm TRIBLU, stirred the pot with a bold claim. He suggested Musk might choose XRP as the main currency for X\u2019s upcoming payment system, X Money. Dalton argued that Musk \u201cwill do anything\u201d to make XRP the go-to token.<\/p>\n<p>He tagged Ripple, Musk, US President Trump, and Trump\u2019s sons in a single post. That move framed the drama as more than just politics\u2014it became a showdown of crypto loyalties.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/cMrQUpcK\/\" width=\"1835\" height=\"884\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Technical Fit For X Money<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>XRP provides quicker settlement and reduced fees than Bitcoin. In 2021, Musk suspended BTC payments for Tesla due to high energy consumption and centralized mining concerns. That move proved he&#8217;s not afraid to change course when a coin isn&#8217;t aligned with his objectives.<\/p>\n<p>In October 2024, Musk even referenced XRP in a viral video. He spoke of crypto like XRP potentially resisting central control, but he did not go so far as to make a full endorsement. With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/digital-assets\/2025\/05\/26\/tesla-billionaire-elon-musk-quietly-confirmed-a-massive-x-game-changer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">X Money<\/a> scheduled to roll out later in 2025, XRP&#8217;s architecture for cross-border transfers could mirror what Musk is looking to create.<\/p>\n<p>Some analysts point out real hurdles. Ripple still holds a large chunk of XRP, and US regulators are watching closely. Any big move would need legal green lights and deep liquidity on exchanges. But for now, the idea of an \u201ceverything app\u201d powered by XRP keeps popping up in crypto chats.<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image from Shutterstock, chart from TradingView<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to social media buzz, the growing clash between Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump has sent ripples through the crypto world.
