On July 9 (Wednesday), Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse became the focus at a Senate Banking Committee hearing titled "From Wall Street to Web3: Building the Future of the Digital Asset Market." He used this platform to call for cryptocurrency regulatory reform and explained the impact of the SEC lawsuit against Ripple, while emphasizing the non-security nature of XRP. Against this backdrop, XRP reached a 7-week high, while Bitcoin (BTC) also hit a new all-time high. Hopes for the introduction of a regulatory framework, along with the more important FOMC meeting minutes, boosted demand for BTC and the entire crypto market.
