Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen joined 87 other corporate leaders in endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for the White House, as reported by CNBC on Sept. 6.
The letter included several other high-profile signatories, including Aaron Levie (Box CEO), Jeremy Stoppelman (Yelp CEO), philanthropist Lynn Forester de Rothschild, private equity billionaire José Feliciano, Twilio co-founder Jeff Lawson, DC sports magnate Ted Leonsis, Snap chairman Michael Lynton, and former 21st Century Fox CEO James Murdoch.
Letter Overview
According to CNBC, the letter emphasized that electing Harris as president is the best way to support democracy and the economy’s strength, security, and stability.
The signatories believe Harris would implement fair policies that uphold the rule of law and foster a stable business environment.
The letter was not aimed at swaying the public but rather positioned as a political statement to boost Harris’s profile, especially with the first presidential debate just days away.
Harris and crypto
Larsen’s backing for Harris is notable due to Ripple’s consistent advocacy for blockchain innovation and drive to ensure that pro-crypto candidates are elected. Due to this, the firm has contributed millions to Fairshake, a federal super PAC supporting pro-crypto and pro-innovation candidates.
However, Larsen’s endorsement of Harris may seem unexpected since she has not publicly shared her position on the crypto sector.
Nevertheless, Larsen’s endorsement also signals Harris’s growing support within the crypto industry.
Although much of the sector favors former President Donald Trump for his pro-crypto policies, there is increasing interest in Harris. Recently, crypto executives and advocates reportedly discussed raising $100,000 for Harris’s campaign, hoping to influence her stance on crypto regulation if she wins.
J.P. Theriot, co-founder of Uphold, also voiced his support for Harris on X (formerly Twitter). Additionally, Harris’s campaign has begun accepting crypto donations via Coinbase.
Despite this support, Harris currently trails Trump in the decentralized prediction market Polymarket.
