Brad Garlinghouse Clarifies on Linqto Holding 4.7M Ripple Shares After DoJ Probe

As investment firm Linqto faces a recent probe by the US Department of Justice (DoJ), Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has issued a clarification on the company holding 4.7 million Ripple shares. Distancing his company from Linqto, which is currently under the scrutiny of federal investigators, Garlinhouse said that all the shares held by the investment firm were acquired through secondary markets, and the blockchain firm never sold them directly.
