Potential XRP Price Chaos

Bambrough underscored that the bullish development signals the growing interest from Wall Street in cryptocurrencies. However, according to the Forbes senior contributor, the U.S. government could trigger a significant trend reversal.

The Pending Executive Order

Notably, Bambrough highlighted specific details of the pending executive order. He noted that reports suggest President Biden plans to unveil an extensive directive focused on artificial intelligence (AI). 

According to Forbes, such a move has set the crypto industry on edge. Bambrough cited that the directive is expected to be unveiled in the coming weeks. He noted the order aims to address AI’s safe and trustworthy use. 

Furthermore, Forbes highlighted that the order could introduce measures for evaluating AI models before deployment. The statement read:

“The order is expected to require AI models to be assessed before they can be used by federal workers and help ease barriers for highly skilled workers seeking to move to the U.S. to work in the field.”

While these aspects of the order are geared towards enhancing AI practices, Forbes mentioned that earlier leaks about the directive raised concerns within the crypto community. 

According to Forbes, some crypto experts fear that the executive order could categorize computing energy as a “national resource.”

The report noted that such a classification might mandate cloud computing firms like Google and Amazon to divulge information for when customers’ purchase of computing resources for activities such as Bitcoin mining extends beyond a set limit.

Head of government affairs at crypto-based investment firm Paradigm, Alexander Grieve, reportedly expressed concerns about the pending directive. Grieve likened it to “Operation Choke Point but for computing power.”

The concerns regarding this looming development stem from the fact that Bitcoin miners might become limited in purchasing computing powers, thereby impacting their productivity. This could have a detrimental effect on the broader crypto market, extending to asserts like XRP.
