From payroll to creator payouts, the demands of modern payments revolve around faster settlements, lower costs, global reach, flexibility, and efficiency.
In our latest Spaces, @simonb_ldn explains why stablecoin rails are built for the next generation of payments.
RedStone is joining @XDCNetwork as an institutional masternode validator.

Big moves in the AI + payments revolution!
Mastercard just dropped Agent Pay for Machines super-fast, always-on payments for AI agents executing microtransactions at machine speed.
And guess who's right in the mix? @RippleXDev powering the future of programmable, blockchain-backed commerce alongside giants like @coinbase , @stripe , @okx , and more!
This is huge for #XRPL and #RLUSD enabling seamless, secure, high-velocity settlements in the agentic economy. Traditional finance + crypto rails uniting for real innovation.

As AI agents begin transacting on behalf of businesses, payments need more than speed. They need trust, controls, and clear rules for how value moves.
We're helping build the infrastructure for trusted agent-driven payments, with the XRP Ledger and $RLUSD helping lay the foundation for the future of commerce.
We're pleased to be part of the ecosystem supporting @Mastercard's Agent Pay for Machines initiative, helping validate new use cases, establish common rules, and accelerate adoption.

🚨🇯🇵 HUGE: Japan's SBI Shinsei Bank will let customers convert a portion of their deposit interest into $XRP starting June 10!!
Japan has roughly $8.6 trillion in total bank deposits.
Even at Japan’s low rates (often under 0.5% for many accounts), this still represents tens of billions in annual interest payouts across the system, a massive pool that SBI’s move could tap into for XRP conversion.
SBI Japan knows the new financial system runs on #XRP. That’s why their CEO said it’ll be obscenely expensive.
Japan is running way ahead of the U.S. 😳🔥

🚨Congress OFFICIALLY Begins REVIEWING 7 Crypto Tax Bills That Could TRANSFORM Digital Assets 🤯📜🔥
While the Senate works to FINALIZE the Clarity Act, the House is now shifting its focus to crypto tax reform. 👀
This week, the House Ways and Means Committee will examine 7 SEPARATE CRYPTO TAX PROPOSALS that could reshape how digital assets are taxed in the United States. 🚀
The discussions are expected to cover:
✅ Stablecoin transactions
✅ Mining & staking taxation
✅ Crypto lending
✅ Wash sale rules
✅ Charitable donations
✅ Taxpayer reporting requirements
65 crypto organizations sent a unified letter to Congress demanding the CLARITY Act gets passed
Ripple's @bgarlinghouse said it best If the largest economy in the world is going to lead on crypto, this is the moment."
XRP gets permanently classified as a commodity under federal law if this passes.
‼️🤯 A Huge Announcement From Bank of International Settlements (BIS) Regarding Digital Assets Is Expected Soon
The BIS is the powerhouse that serves as the central bank to ALL central banks, quietly steering the entire global financial system.
SBI Japan CEO just revealed that BIS “succeeds in proof of concept for international payments using digital currency.”
This comes after SBI Japan disclosed that they have been using RLUSD and XRP for cross-border payments since 2021.
Interestingly, BoJ banker @yutokanzakireal, had revealed that an associate from Bank of Japan has assumed a position at the BIS.
RIPPLE IS THE TROJAN HORSE😳
‼️RIPPLE PARTNER BANK OF AMERICA TO LAUNCH CROSS-BORDER PAYMENTS SERVICE USING SWIFT‼️
Remember, banks are increasingly adopting hybrid payment models that utilize both Ripple and SWIFT simultaneously for global transactions.😶🌫️
Ripple’s partnership with Bank of America creates a pathway for XRP to access the bank’s extensive global payment network.💯
This dual approach is practical for banks because RippleNet can connect to existing banking infrastructure in a manner similar to traditional payment systems.✅
As a result, banks can maintain SWIFT connectivity for universal reach while leveraging XRP through RippleNet as a source of on-demand liquidity.🌐
Bank of America’s new cross-border payments service further strengthens the foundation for XRP’s integration into the bank’s core payment infrastructure.🏦

🔥🇺🇸 CRYPTO CLARITY IS HERE 🇺🇸🔥
Senator Cynthia Lummis just sent a message to every builder, founder, and holder who survived the toughest years in crypto.
The future is being written now, and regulation is finally catching up to innovation.
The next wave of adoption won’t wait. 🚀
Unlocking real XRP utility for the community 🙌
Uphold's Nancy Beaton explains how we're giving holders new ways to put their assets to work without liquidating their positions ↓
Yes, $XRP price keeps sliding.
And institutions keep buying more through spot ETFs anyway.
Three straight weeks. +$97.74M flowing in.
While Bitcoin lost $3.68 BILLION and Ethereum lost $712M during the same window.
$4.39 billion walked out of BTC and ETH. Almost $100M walked into XRP.
Same market conditions. Same macro fear. Completely opposite institutional behavior.
Three consecutive weeks of choosing one asset while actively exiting the two largest alternatives.
The funds buying XRP through regulated products have compliance teams, risk models, and quarterly mandates.
They're not buying because of a tweet.
They're buying because the regulatory trajectory, the DTCC working group, the Mastercard settlement, and the $4B RWA ecosystem justify continued accumulation even during a drawdown.
The price drops. The flows grow.
That divergence tells you everything about where institutional conviction sits right now.
Be bullish!
