🇺🇸 @Ripple has officially expanded its D.C. presence, reinforcing its mission to bridge the gap between blockchain technology and financial policy. 🇺🇸
As the industry matures, proactive engagement with regulators is more critical than ever.
The insights behind the expansion: https://t.co/NPS4W5rDVK

This time it’s not me saying it… Billions can come to Flare just with Uphold.
With FIP16, FLR token economics is fundamentally linked to ecosystem expansion.
The SEC has finally shifted the goalposts. After years of relentless lawsuits against the broader industry and specifically targeting $XRP their latest staff guidance now formally categorizes these assets as "Digital Commodities."
Reality is finally catching up.
The SEC now officially recognizes these 16 assets as Digital Commodities: XRP, BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA, LINK, XLM, APT, AVAX, BCH, DOGE, HBAR, LTC, DOT, XTZ, and SHIB.

Oh and I forgot to mention the best thing.
If FIP16 passes and you are both a FLR and XRP holder then by using your XRP on Flare you are directly benefiting your FLR.
“The Bank of Canada has completed its Project Samara tokenization pilot, which tested issuing a $100 million CAD bond issuance using Hyperledger Fabric”
- @CoinMarketCap
Capital markets operate on two systems. Payments rails and securities rails
They settle separately.
Samara merges them.
If capital markets move toward tokenized settlement the system needs liquidity bridges, crossledger interoperability and crossborder settlement layers. 😉
A key loop to have in mind for the upcoming FIP:
More XRP arrives on Flare.
More FXRP enters DeFi.
More activity creates fees and MEV.
More fees and MEV flow to FIRE.
FIRE buys and burns FLR.
Another huge milestone for XRPFi 🔥
150M XRP moved to @FlareNetworks, making it the biggest XRPFi project to date.
And making Bifrost Wallet the biggest XRPFi wallet.
We're just getting started!
