Donald Trump Jr. Explores XRP’s Role in Revolutionizing Cross-Border Payments, Including in the U.S


In a recent conversation with Bitboy, Donald Trump Jr. delved into the transformative potential of XRP for global banking and cross-border payments, including its potential in the U.S. As part of the CryptoTradingFund (CTF) rewards system, customers who make purchases with XRP at participating merchants—whether online or in-person—can earn CTF Tokens as rewards. These tokens offer flexibility, allowing users to redeem them for products or exchange them for fiat currency as cashback.


The program has expanded to include Amazon as an approved vendor, allowing XRP users to earn and spend CTF tokens on one of the world’s largest online platforms. Analysts speculate that, due to the growing demand and limited token supply, CTF tokens could see their value soar from $1.10 to $519.95.


Bitboy, a prominent cryptocurrency influencer, underscored XRP’s potential to disrupt traditional banking. Unlike Bitcoin, which primarily serves as a store of value, XRP is designed for fast and efficient international cross-border payments. The SWIFT network, the current standard for international transactions, operates as an “information network,” often taking several days to complete a transfer. In contrast, XRP’s blockchain-based “value network” can settle payments in less than 30 seconds. Bitboy highlighted XRP’s high-speed payment capabilities as a much-needed alternative to the slow and outdated SWIFT system.


Donald Trump Jr. pointed out how the delays inherent in SWIFT transactions, compounded by time zone issues and other logistical hurdles, create significant challenges for businesses and individuals. With XRP’s lightning-fast transaction processing, these delays are virtually eliminated, paving the way for smooth, near-instantaneous international payments.

The CTF rewards program further enhances the XRP Ledger’s attractiveness by offering additional benefits through cashback. Participating merchants can now provide free CTF Tokens with every purchase.


The integration of Amazon into the CryptoTradingFund rewards program marks a major milestone, enabling customers to earn and redeem CTF tokens within the world’s largest e-commerce platform.


This conversation signals a broader shift in the financial landscape, where XRP could become central to U.S. international transactions. As demand for faster, blockchain-based systems rises, XRP and the CTF rewards program illustrate how digital assets can drive new efficiencies in global commerce. With XRP at the forefront of cross-border payments and CTF tokens offering real-world rewards, these innovations are set to play a major role in shaping the future of finance in the U.S. and beyond.
