No August doldrums in DC this week! It was great to join the inaugural @CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee (a group I've called "the Olympic roster of crypto.") But for a “crypto” gathering, there were a LOT of TradFi players in the room like @NASDAQ, @CMEGroup, @CBOE, @OptionsClearing, @NYSE, @The_DTCC (alphabet soup!)

Everyone was in agreement. Rules written for a different era aren’t good enough. Not for consumers. Not for business. Not for innovation.

I made this case in an open letter to Congress back in 2019. Seven years later, we STILL need clear rules…. Thanks to the Trump administration, appointees like @ChairmanSelig, and a myriad of bold leaders in Congress, we’ve never been closer.

Clearstream (Deutsche Börse Group) just added XRP custody.

One of the world’s largest securities settlement giants just opened regulated vaults for XRP.

This de-risks XRP for institutions and turns it into a legitimate collateral and settlement asset.

It’s official: Ripple has received its EU CASP license. We are now fully MiCA-compliant and ready to meet growing European crypto demand https://t.co/I9GRgvfGzH

🇯🇵 JUST IN: Ripple and SBI Group officially launch $RLUSD in Japan following JFSA approval, making the stablecoin available to both institutional and retail users.

[Ripple @Ripple]

We're proud to announce that Ripple USD ($RLUSD) is now officially available in Japan, following approval from the Japan Financial Services Agency (JFSA): https://t.co/ChkYMQ6kxW

Through our partnership with SBI Group and @sbivc_official, $RLUSD will be accessible to both institutional and retail users via the VCTRADE platform, serving as a bridge for payments, tokenization, and collateral management.

With $1.7 billion in market cap and a 10-year relationship with SBI, this is a significant milestone in advancing regulated stablecoin adoption across Asia.

[Ripple @Ripple]

More licensing momentum!

Ripple has secured its preliminary Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) license in Luxembourg, paving the way for the full rollout of Ripple Payments across the EEA and full MiCA compliance: https://t.co/maJOvuNehw

The next wave of regulated digital asset adoption in Europe is here and it’s powered by Ripple.

@MarioNawfal This is wrong on so many levels - from the coup of Jankovic 2014 to the push of the US to extend Nato right to russian boarders. Not to mention the push of US and UK for Ukraine not to sign an agreement in Turkey. Main profiteer: US weapon manufacturers.

DXC Partners with @Ripple to Empower Global Banks with Scalable Digital Asset Custody and Payments

We’ve secured our preliminary Electronic Money Institution license approval from Luxembourg’s Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF). 🇪🇺

This is a pivotal step toward scaling Ripple Payments across the EU, bringing institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure to the region. https://t.co/Q72ntwwjFB

The momentum is global:
→ 75+ licenses & registrations worldwide
→ $95B+ in volume processed to date
→ Reaching 90% of daily FX markets

With the EU taking the lead in building a regulatory framework for digital assets, we're helping institutions transition from pilots to commercial scale, and we’re bridging the gap between legacy finance and the digital future to unlock trillions in dormant capital.

[Stuart Alderoty @s_alderoty]

We’re on a roll with licensing momentum! 📷 @Ripple has secured preliminary approval for an EMI license from Luxembourg’s CSSF. This is a major milestone that will allow us to scale Ripple Payments across all 27 EU and EEA member states.
Huge congrats to the team for years of hard work. Ripple is now one of the most licensed crypto companies globally with 75+ approvals and counting.

[Brad Garlinghouse @bgarlinghouse]

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!

We went out to document the suffering of people in the tents, but what we saw is far more horrific than anything I could ever write.

The reality here is beyond words.
People are literally crying from pain, helplessness, and the cold that shows no mercy.

More than 99% of the tents are worn out, unable to withstand a single drop of rain.The water has soaked the mattresses, the clothes, even the food.Displaced families are trying to lift the wet blankets off their children, but it’s useless everything is soaked, everything is freezing.

The situation is catastrophic, tragic, and strips people of their dignity.
Please, don’t stop speaking out.
Share, write, raise our voices because the silence of the world is drowning us more than the rain itself.

Huge news today! 🇬🇧

As a Brit, it feels absolutely brilliant to see @Ripple officially secure its approval from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

Securing the green light from the FCA is no small feat! @TheFCA are widely regarded as one of the most respected regulators in the world!

The future of digital payments in the UK is looking very bright! 🚀

[Ripple @Ripple]

The future of regulated digital assets payments in the UK has arrived! 🇬🇧

Ripple has officially secured approval of both an EMI license and Cryptoasset Registration from the UK's FCA.

Who better to explain what it means than our UK and Europe Managing Director @CraddockCJ.
