Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse opined that members of the Bitcoin community are not the enemy of XRP holders.

"The Bitcoin community is not our enemy. They really are not. If they do well, we gonna do well…We might do better. It's not a zero-sum game," he stressed.

The comment comes after the tensions between the two major cryptocurrency communities, which have been at loggerheads for a decade, escalated once again.

As reported by U.Today, Garlinghouse publicly took aim at Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis on May 19 for canceling a meeting with him. He urged her to be a leader for "all crypto."

Lummis, who has been appointed as the chair of the recently created Digital Assets Subcommittee, is the most vocal Bitcoin advocate in Congress. She came under fire from the XRP Army for ignoring the Ripple leader. Some have dug out the anti-XRP tweets of Will Cole, Lummis's son-in-law. In 2022, for instance, Cole described XRP as a "centralized joke of a scam."

Ripple also faced fresh criticism after gifting the infamous anti-mining "Skull of Satoshi" to the Nashville-based museum dedicated to the leading cryptocurrency. Many Bitcoin proponents were quick to recall that the enterprise blockchain company would aggressively go after Bitcoin mining.

Earlier this year, Bitcoiners also started attacking Ripple after it turned out that the company was actively lobbying against a BTC-only reserve in the U.S. Politico recently reported that a prominent lobbyist behind the infamous Truth Social post mentioning XRP as part of the federal crypto reserve was recently purged from the White House.
