Today, @Ripple announced the acquisition of Hidden Road for $1.25B, one of the largest deals ever in the crypto space. But the price tag isn’t what’s most important – it’s that this deal marks a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for crypto to access the largest and most trusted traditional markets, and vice versa.

Prime brokers (along with other key functions historically managed by banks for the most part) like Hidden Road have proven themselves as *the* trusted intermediary for the largest hedge funds, market makers, OTC desks, quant traders and more. Ripple has been a customer of Hidden Road for years, and we know their breadth of expertise firsthand, clearing $3 TRILLION annually for 300+ of the top financial institutions globally.

This is the capital and activity that will tap into XRP and the XRP Ledger’s bread-and-butter – instant, efficient, scalable and low cost movement of value. Instead of waiting for <24 hours to settle trades through fiat rails, Hidden Road will be using XRPL for clearing a portion of trades, and most consequentially, using RLUSD as collateral across its prime brokerage services, including cross-asset (crypto and traditional instrument) trades.

With this deal and the backing of Ripple’s significant balance sheet, Hidden Road will exponentially expand its capacity to service its pipeline and become the largest non-bank prime broker globally.

Ripple and Hidden Road combined are a generational leap forward, ready to truly bring the worlds of traditional and decentralized finance together. https://t.co/UYOOyQ21dG

@Wendys bring back your old fries… the new ones are in no way better than what you were offering before. It wasn’t broke. You didn’t fix it. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@GovRonDeSantis should immediately resign. You have outright lied to your people. Cost countless lives and NOW you use police raid a woman’s house and point weapons at her children?! Leave office.

@DuvalMagic Congratulations! As I’ve said before. I think you, your team and the content you create are just amazing. Thank you for making my favorite game! Can’t wait to see what comes next...

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@anthemgame Not sure if this has been answered already or not. Love the game. But, the Colossus felt way to squishy during both demos. Are you doing anything to either his shield or health value to make him more of a damage taker? Thanks!

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@DuvalMagic Put me in coach! Gearbox software is still my dream job! Can’t wait to see what you all do next! 🤘🏼🤓🤘🏼

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@RepAOC @TamiVandenBerg Hold fast. We support you!

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@SecNielsen @DHSgov Still waiting on a count of you and your departments victims. How many people have died while in your custody? Myself, Congress and the World are waiting.

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@RobertFHiggins @SecNielsen @PressSec yes, sir! Thank you for speaking out on behalf of the right side of history. We do not support the #VanityWall

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@SecNielsen If you yourself know these are the facts. How can you support a border wall? There is overwhelming data to show that the majority of “dangerous” people are moving by air. The #vanitywall is pointless. I encourage you to take a step onto the right side of history.

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@Rwilson51 @realDonaldTrump Amen... Ayyyyeeeemen.

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@realDonaldTrump So what you are saying here, Mr. President... Is that we are perfectly capable of “closing” the southern border... even without the wall..?

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

@realDonaldTrump Mr. Trump... you are literally supposed to live there... you know that right?

[Erik Quintero @ELQEnt]

I hope you all have someone in your lives that helps you smile bigger and laugh louder. Those are the things that count.
