Ripple Lawyer Bill Morgan Torches U.S. Escrow Seizure FUD: XRP Community Roars Back

Ripple's legal eagle Bill Morgan just dropped a truth bomb on rumors of U.S. escrow seizures—and the XRP army is loving it.

When Washington whispers turn to wildfire, the crypto world holds its breath. But this time? The sharks are circling the wrong prey.

Let's break down why these rumors smell fishier than a Wall Street 'stablecoin' proposal.

Morgan's takedown cuts through the noise like a hot knife through bureaucratic butter. No vague legalese—just straight facts that leave SEC-style speculation in the dust.

Meanwhile, XRP holders keep stacking while traditional finance guys wonder why their 'escrow accounts' can't move at blockchain speed. Maybe they should try innovation instead of litigation for once.

Fresh speculation about the U.S. government’s interest in Ripple’s XRP escrow is stirring debate across the crypto space, but Ripple-affiliated lawyer Bill Morgan has stepped in to squash the noise over Ripple’s XRP escrow for the national reserve. As rumors spread about the possible use of XRP in America’s national financial reserve, Morgan calls the idea unfounded and unlikely.

No it won’t. https://t.co/48zQvTBUg9

Rumors started circulating after online influencers suggested that the U.S. could tap into Ripple’s XRP escrow as part of a broader crypto reserve strategy. Some went as far as claiming this WOULD support the country’s financial system in the digital age. Bill Morgan, however, made it clear—“No, it won’t.” He dismissed the speculation outright, denying any government plan to take control of the XRP escrow held by Ripple.

RUMOR: Whispers from D.C. suggest something massive —

U.S. authorities are exploring whether Ripple’s $XRP escrow could be repurposed as part of America’s national financial reserves.

Sound far-fetched? So did Bitcoin ETFs once.

Strategic digital assets are heating up.

His comment comes amid growing buzz on X, where crypto analysts like John Squire and Pumpius have floated the theory that the U.S. might explore XRP’s utility for reserve backing. While some compare the possibility to the once-unlikely approval of bitcoin ETFs, Morgan isn’t buying it.

At the same time, new posts have emerged claiming that the U.S. Federal Reserve is already using XRP via its FedNow payment system. One viral post insisted that XRP use is “100% confirmed.” But this appears to stretch the facts. Volante Technologies, a partner in the FedNow pilot, has integrated Ripple tech for cross-border payments. Still, there’s no verified indication that XRP itself is being used by the Fed for transactions.

These rumors gained more attention following Ripple’s release of 1 billion XRP from escrow in early June. Split across three large transactions, the tokens were valued at over $2.2 billion. Combined with recent discussions around a potential U.S. strategic crypto reserve, including altcoins like XRP and SOL, the speculation has only intensified.

Despite XRP’s growing presence in global payments infrastructure, there’s no concrete evidence to support claims of its seizure or inclusion in the U.S. reserve. For now, they remain speculative at best.
