Excited to share that after two years leading Corporate Adoption, @Odelia_Torteman now serves as Head of Digital Assets at XRPL Commons.
In this capacity, she leads initiatives with industry players across finance and #Web3 to accelerate XRPL adoption by bringing #DeFi, tokenization, and payments use cases to the XRP Ledger, from concept to production, turning real‑world needs into on‑chain solutions.
As the XRP Ledger matures into the core infrastructure for 24/7 programmable finance, XRPL Commons continues to support partners with the practical frameworks, ecosystem connections, and hands‑on guidance needed to launch compliant products on‑ledger.
XRPL Commons’s 🌊Aquarium alum Andrew @Andrew_Kasko presented at Wave of Innovation @wave_of_innov in Australia, sharing his journey developing @blockvaultfi during the Aquarium Residency and building new ways to earn, borrow, and grow crypto on the XRPL.

Fantastic to see adoption in Australia.
Andrew and Ryan from our team were happy to help out as mentors and impressed by the innovative ideas of university students.
The focus was on building on the XRPL, with a specific importance on the new amendments such as the lending protocol XLS-66D.
New blog just dropped: The Aquarium is leveling up. 🚀
Our Paris-based #XRPL residency is evolving into a
9-week incubator for pre-seed and seed teams, with structured support, 1:1 coaching, and milestone-based grants to take MVPs to market.

@wave_of_innov@Andrew_Kasko Big thanks to @xrpl_commons for the opportunity. Looking forward to representing the community and sharing what we’ve been working on 💯
Excited to share that I’ll be speaking at Wave of Innovation at the Crown in Sydney on 27 Feb.
A big thank you to @xrpl_commons and the wider XRPL community for the opportunity and continued support.
Looking forward to discussing innovation in yielding and lending on the XRPL.
@Andrew_Kasko joins XRP Australia 2026 as a speaker, representing XRPL Commons!
Andrew will share his experience from the Aquarium Residency program—where he built and is currently leading @blockvaultfi, unlocking new ways to earn, borrow, and grow crypto on the XRPL.
Awesome to have @Vet_X0 speak with us at XRPL Commons about building community.
Always valuable hearing directly from those deeply embedded in the XRPL ecosystem.
Appreciate the insights and the visit
The XRPL ecosystem is moving fast.
BlockVault’s role: building native yield + credit for XRP holders, without losing exposure to the underlying asset.
If you’re working on liquidity, identity/KYC, or digital asset infrastructure, let’s collaborate.
Great energy at @xrpl_commons in Paris. So many teams solving real problems for the ecosystem.
BlockVault is here to fill a missing piece: yield + lending options built natively for XRP holders and RLUSD liquidity.
Excited to collaborate with more builders pushing XRPL forward.
🚀 Big News!
The teams behind NFTMaster & BreezePay (both XRPL grant recipients) are joining forces to launch BlockVault - a unique yielding & lending platform on XRPL and beyond!
This account is evolving from NFTMaster to @blockvaultfi
