It positions Garlinghouse and Ripple at the center of the most regulation-dense crypto gathering of Q3 2026, at a moment when the company\u2019s four-year legal dispute with the US Securities and Exchange Commission has closed, and federal market-structure legislation remains unresolved on the Senate floor.<\/p>\n
This news dropped as XRP is trading for $1.06, down nearly 2% over the past 24 hours following a -1.5% move in the past week. Daily trading volume for XRP sits at $1.14Bn, down from $1.22Bn yesterday.<\/p>\n

The confirmed speaker list, drawn from SALT\u2019s July 29 post on X and corroborated by Coinpedia\u2019s reporting, includes SEC Chair Paul Atkins, Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, Sen. Tim Scott (Chair, Senate Banking Committee), and Comptroller of the Currency Jonathan Gould.<\/p>\n
Industry representation spans Galaxy\u2019s Michael Novogratz, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, Stellar Development Foundation CEO Denelle Dixon, Custodia Bank founder Caitlin Long, Kraken CEO David Ripley, and Ondo Finance\u2019s John Hoffman, among others.<\/p>\n
The symposium\u2019s stated agenda covers US and global crypto regulation, Bitcoin\u2019s role as a corporate treasury asset, tokenization of traditional financial markets, and decentralized artificial intelligence infrastructure.<\/p>\n
Panel discussions are on the record; evening sessions and excursions scheduled for August 20 operate off the record, reinforcing the event\u2019s function as a closed-door coordination venue rather than a public-facing conference.<\/p>\n
