This is a meaningful step toward 24/7 global financial markets.

By combining the XRP Ledger with global banking infrastructure, this pilot shows how institutions can execute cross-border transactions in a single integrated flow.

🚨More US regulatory momentum! Hidden by the SEC commodity classification last week, the CFTC issued its first no-action letter for a self-custodial wallet. The core principle: if you don’t hold customer funds, you’re not a financial intermediary. In other words, you’d be infrastructure, not a broker. XRP was designed for this. Assets settle on-chain, not through a central counterparty. https://t.co/2BumGFViaK

I WANT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING IMPORTANT

XRP is the backbone of the new financial system.

The four-year cycle isn't the story anymore.

Ed and TJ from @parataxis_cap joined me to break down what actually drives crypto from here. Liquidity, macro, ETF flows and, the coming wave of AI agents. As ever, please enjoy!

By this weekend, xAI will have three Grok Build models in training simultaneously

[CZ 🔶 BNB @cz_binance]

AI will make you jobless.
Crypto will make you not need a job.

Buy and hold now, retire in a few years. 🙋‍♂️if crypto allowed you to retire already.

[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!

[Nick | Crypto Crusader @NCashOfficial]

BOOM 💥 there it is.

We knew this partnership was brewing all along

#Ripple × BNY × $XRP

[Ripple @Ripple]

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.

In 2017, UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayedand warned:

"There will come a day that we will see far more radical extremists and terrorists coming out of Europe because of lack of decision making, trying to be politically correct, or assuming that they know the Middle East and they know Islam and they know the others far better than we do. And I'm sorry but that's pure ignorance."

[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.

7 years ago, the UAE’s Foreign Minister issued a warning to the West.

His words now sound more prophetic than ever.

[Stuart Alderoty @s_alderoty]

Since its inception, Ripple has led with trust, compliance, and real utility - and we'll continue setting the standard for how institutions engage with digital assets. We are among the first to receive conditional approval following the enactment of GENIUS - future-proofing Ripple's stablecoin business for the long term.

[Brad Garlinghouse @bgarlinghouse]

HUGE news! @Ripple just received conditional approval from the @USOCC to charter Ripple National Trust Bank. This is a massive step forward - first for $RLUSD, setting the highest standard for stablecoin compliance with both federal (OCC) & state (NYDFS) oversight.

To the banking lobbyists – your anti-competitive tactics are transparent. You’ve complained that crypto isn’t playing by the same rules, but here’s the crypto industry – directly under the OCC's supervision and standards – prioritizing compliance, trust and innovation to the benefit of consumers. What are you so afraid of?
