Brad Garlinghouse favored digital asset reserves that include more than just Bitcoin (BTC) and XRP. “We live in a multichain world, and I’ve argued for a level playing field rather than one token against another.

‘I own XRP, BTC, and ETH,” Garlinghouse stated on X that if a government digital asset reserve is established, it should, in my opinion, be representative of the sector rather than just one token” (be it Bitcoin, XRP, or another one).

President Donald Trump, who supported the idea, stated that his administration will assess whether to establish a national digital asset stockpile.

The cryptocurrency market believes that Bitcoin, the most valuable digital asset on the market and the one with the greatest institutional adoption, could be a possible reserve.

According to traders using the decentralized betting platform Polymarket, there is currently only a 17 percent chance that Trump will approve the project during the first 100 days of his presidency.

However, Garlinghouse opposes the maximalism that positions Bitcoin as the sole worthy contender for a possible national reserve.
