Ripple: Xrp Cryptocurrency Could Account For 14% Of Swift’S X-Border Payments Volume

Noting that SWIFT handles messaging while banks handle liquidity, Garlinghouse said, “I think less about the messaging and more about liquidity,” Seeking Alpha reported Friday (June 13). “If you’re driving all the liquidity, it is good for XRP … so I’ll say five years, 14%,” Garlinghouse said while speaking at the XRP APEX 2025 event in Singapore, per the report. XRP serves as a bridge currency, facilitating instant exchanges between currencies and reducing the need for traditional banks to park money abroad, according to the report

Proposed Genius Act Amendments Could Reshape Traditional Financial Services

That didn’t happen. But the GENIUS Act, an acronym for Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins of 2025 Act, which could be the country’s first stablecoin legislation, did eventually make progress Monday (June 9) when Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., filed for cloture. Under Senate rules, filing for cloture starts the timer on a 30-hour clock for the GENIUS Act, setting the stage for a Wednesday (June 11) vote window for lawmakers. “Thank you for your leadership [Sen. Thune]! The GENIUS Act is one step closer to passage, a huge milestone for the crypto community,” said the U.S

‘No Tax On Tips’ Legislation Could Affect 4 Million Us Workers

Legislation eliminating federal income taxes on tips could provide some relief to around 4 million U.S. workers, CNBC reported Wednesday (May 21).That is the number of workers — about 2.5% of all employees — who were in tipped occupations in 2023, according to the report. These occupations include those in restaurants, hotels and courier services.The Senate passed a No Tax on Tips Act on Tuesday (May 20), by a unanimous vote, and a similar provision is included in a tax bill advanced by the House Ways and Means Committee last week, the report said.Both pieces of legislation would require tips to be reported but would provide a tax deduction for the workers, per the report.While the legislation would provide tax relief to some workers, it could create some issues, Alex Muresianu, senior policy analyst at the Tax Foundation, told CNBC.A “good chunk” of tipped workers don’t pay federal income taxes because their earnings are lower than the standard deduction; the policy could lead to new occupations introducing tips and existing tipped occupations relying on tips more heavily; income could be misclassified as tips; and workers earning similar incomes in different occupations could be taxed differently, Muresianu said.It was reported in March that Uber and DoorDash were working to make sure the legislation to remove taxes on tips would cover the independent contractors who work for them. At that point, the proposed legislation would exclude those workers because it tied eligibility to reports by employers that break out tips and wages.Eliminating taxes on tips could hasten the shift to digital payouts, PYMNTS reported in November. Any change in tax mandates will move stakeholders to reexamine the burdens of collecting and accounting for cash payments and income reporting tied to that cash — such as the burden of lugging the cash to the bank — and will provide the psychological impact of getting more money into one’s pocket (because it’s untaxed).Eighty-five percent of workers who receive instant tips digitally are highly satisfied with the real-time methodology, according to the PYMNTS Intelligence and Ingo Money collaboration, “Generation Instant: Hospitality and Tips.”
