Co-founder of Ripple, Chris Larsen, made a donation of US$1 million worth of XRP to Kamala Harris’ campaign through the Future Forward political action committee.
The donation came in August, marking the first cryptocurrency donation to the Harris campaign.
Larsen's donation may be an attempt to endear Ripple to a future Harris administration or send a message to the SEC regarding legal action against Ripple.
Crypto has become a hot button issue in the US presidential election, with both candidates vowing to support the industry's growth.
