 Fox Business anchor Charles Gasparino finds himself in the crossfire of XRP supporters, who he's recently <a href="https://twitter.com/CGasparino/status/1680707104875610112" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">dubbed</a> as a "cult."&nbsp;In a series of tweets, Gasparino described his tumultuous relationship with the XRP community, portraying it as a challenging yet thrilling part of his work.&nbsp;"When I wrote what XRP crowd loved they called me a hero. When I reported a few things they hate, I’m public enemy No 1," Gasparino wrote in one tweet, underscoring the volatile response he garners from the XRP community. 
 The larger context of Gasparino's run-ins with the XRP community is Ripple's <a href="https://u.today/ripple-v-sec-1-billion-question-about-potential-fine" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ongoing legal battle</a> with the SEC. Ripple, the company associated with the cryptocurrency XRP, is facing potential fines of up to $1 billion. In a recent series of tweets, Gasparino questioned Ripple's strategy to handle this substantial sum. He pointed out that the company might need to either dip into its $1 billion cash reserves or dilute its XRP holdings. 
 <a href="https://u.today/xrp-is-on-shaky-ground-says-sec-official-prepare-for-appeal" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">card</a>The Fox Business anchor's contentious relationship with XRP supporters recently escalated when he inadvertently promoted a scam associated with XRP. In an attempt to highlight Ripple's alleged disassociation with XRP, Gasparino quote-tweeted a post claiming to be from Ripple. 
 The tweet announced a <a href="https://u.today/coinbase-ceo-massively-deletes-his-older-tweets-whats-happening" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Coinbase</a> partnership and invited followers to join their community. This tweet, however, was soon flagged as a scam by members of the XRP community, leading to further criticism of Gasparino. 
 Critics like Twitter user King Solomon pointed out Gasparino's error, stating, "You literally just quote tweeted a scam post." Another user, known as XRP_Cro, reiterated that Ripple has never organized an airdrop event for the XRP community, implying Gasparino should have been aware of this.

 As <a href="https://u.today/xrps-momentum-fades-as-price-plunges-16" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reported by U.Today</a>, Gasparino poured some cold water on the high-profile ruling in the Ripple v. SEC case, questioning whether or not it was actually a win for the San Francisco-based company while the market was digesting the ruling following a short-lived bout of euphoria that propelled the XRP price to fourth place on CoinMarketCap. He also clarified that he hadn't personally sought an interview with Garlinghouse. 
 In response, Garlinghouse <a href="https://twitter.com/bgarlinghouse/status/1680065850349592576" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">extended</a> an invitation to Gasparino to discuss the facts in the Fox Business studio. He asserted that any portrayal of the SEC case as a split victory was "pathetic." In his view, Ripple had emerged victorious on all critical aspects of the case, a perspective he claimed was supported not just by Ripple's lawyers, but by many others in the legal profession as well.
