Linda Jones On The Ripple IPO
Linda Jones has previously commented on XRP and the potential value if Ripple were to undergo an initial public offering (IPO) and become a publicly traded company.
Jones compared Ripple going public to the valuation at which Coinbase went public and presented a possible $107 billion valuation for the company.
