💡INSIGHT: RIPPLE AND $RLUSD IS TRANSFORMING AFRICA
@Ripple is powering Africa’s digital economy with trusted crypto solutions.
Its stablecoin $RLUSD delivers stability, compliance, and real-world utility for businesses and communities.
Partnerships with Mercy Corps Ventures in Kenya speed up transparent aid delivery, while collaborations with Chipper Cash, VALR, and Yellow Card expand institutional access.
The recent Absa Bank partnership highlights strong interest in Ripple Custody’s integrated security and compliance.
Regulatory progress is accelerating: Eight African countries now have crypto-specific rules, led by South Africa, Kenya, Mauritius, and Nigeria, through clear licensing, AML standards, and stablecoin frameworks.
Africa drives adoption with 70% of the global mobile money market and $205 billion in Sub-Saharan onchain value (52% YoY growth). $RLUSD meets this need with faster, cheaper cross-border payments.
As regulations mature and fintech innovation grows, Ripple’s $RLUSD is built to fuel Africa’s next wave of digital asset expansion.
Flare Confidential Compute sounds technical, but the idea is simple:
Keep sensitive information secure, prove what happens on-chain in a tamper proof way, act across other chains when needed.
That’s a big step for all of crypto—and it's bigger than just Flare.

We always knew XRP wasn't a security - and now the @SECGov has made clear what it is: a digital commodity. Grateful to the Crypto Task Force for working to deliver the clarity that markets, investors, and innovators have long deserved.
I might be in Puerto Rico enjoying a couple days during Layla’s school vacation - but I’m always on the job trying to bring common sense leadership to MA and the country. Please donate to the cause.
"Only @FlareNetworks has built out an ecosystem for $XRP, end-to-end ecosystem."

Never underestimate the scale Hugo and team are going to build here. This is what you call all in.

Deutsche Bank Taps #Ripple to Revolutionize Global Payments.
Traditional cross-border payments are facing criticisms for being slow, costly, and heavily dependent on intermediaries.
Deutsche Bank is signaling a decisive shift away from that model by deepening its use of blockchain infrastructure built within the Ripple payment system.
Additionally, Deutsche Bank is modernizing processes that historically relied on legacy networks such as SWIFT
🚨NEW: $XRP LEDGER ENABLES PERMISSIONED DOMAINS AFTER XLS-80 APPROVAL
$XRP Ledger has activated XLS-80 following 91%+ validator approval, introducing credential-gated domains designed to support compliant use cases on the public $XRPL.
The activation of permissioned domains on $XRPL signals a push toward institutional and regulated adoption.
Happy belated New Year! I just hit send on Ripple’s quarterly shareholder email. To say that 2025 (and Q4) were successful for Ripple feels like saying @TomBrady was just a great quarterback!! (#theGOAT)
Our two major acquisitions - Ripple Prime and GTreasury - greatly accelerate and expand our ability to deliver on our vision, enabling the Internet of Value. XRP has been (and will continue to be) the heartbeat of that vision.
With truly the most comprehensive licensing portfolio (and now today UK’s EMI license added) we are poised to make 2026 even more consequential.
Building and using crypto infrastructure, updating our global financial plumbing, and rethinking legacy systems – none of this happens overnight. At Ripple, we’re going to continue taking the long view of what crypto-based assets – like XRP and RLUSD – can do, rather than chasing cycles and hype.
Bring on 2026. We are firing on all cylinders. It’s happening!
Today, our partners at @BNYglobal launched tokenized deposit services for institutional clients – bringing the promise of digital assets directly into the banking system – with Ripple Prime as an early adopter.
We're proud to expand our longstanding, strategic collaboration with BNY, the primary reserve custodian of $RLUSD.
Together, we are bridging traditional and digital markets.
Even those who hate @Ripple must admit:
To weather a multi-year federal assault - remain focused on building the plumbing for the future of global finance - come out the other side with a $40B valuation - and a global licensing portfolio - is legendary stuff.
Yet another major step forward - proud to announce the approval of our EMI license and Cryptoasset Registration from the UK's FCA! 📷
This is a positive signal for the UK’s digital assets industry - and underscores Ripple’s global licensing momentum.
We’re proud to meet the FCA’s rigorous standards and look forward to scaling Ripple Payments for UK financial institutions.
