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.

[Mastercard @Mastercard]

Today, Mastercard, @OndoFinance, Kinexys by @JPMorgan, and @Ripple successfully completed a landmark transaction connecting a public blockchain with interbank settlement rails.

Together, we’re laying the groundwork for 24/7 global markets that never close.

Compliance and trust are non-negotiables for institutional finance.

That's why $RLUSD has been greenlisted by Abu Dhabi’s FSRA, enabling its use as collateral on exchanges, for lending, and on prime brokerage platforms within @ADGlobalMarket—the international financial centre of Abu Dhabi: https://t.co/vftQQs15RA

Another major step as $RLUSD becomes the compliant, trusted settlement asset for the region. 🌍

Today, we’re acquiring @RailFinancial: https://t.co/5iMYD7RJyC

This strengthens Ripple’s leadership in crypto infrastructure and stablecoin payments by adding Rail’s robust back-office and virtual account capabilities to our global payments network.

Learn how this deal enables institutions to move value faster, compliantly and more efficiently with the most comprehensive stablecoin payments solution available on the market.

[Brad Garlinghouse @bgarlinghouse]

True to our long-standing compliance roots, @Ripple is applying for a national bank charter from the OCC. If approved, we would have both state (via NYDFS) and federal oversight, a new (and unique!) benchmark for trust in the stablecoin market.

Earlier in the week via @StandardCustody, we also applied for a Fed Master account -- while Congress is working towards clear rules and regulations, and banks (in a far cry from the years of Operation Chokepoint 2.0) are leaning in, this access would allow us to hold $RLUSD reserves directly with the Fed and provide an additional layer of security to future proof trust in RLUSD.

Ripple always has and will continue to build trusted, battle-tested and secure infrastructure. In a $250B+ market, RLUSD stands out for putting regulation first, setting the standard that institutions expect.

Together, Ripple and Hidden Road are bringing the promise of digital assets to institutional customers at scale, bridging traditional finance and decentralized finance in ways never seen before.

This is it – the moment we’ve been waiting for. The SEC will drop its appeal – a resounding victory for Ripple, for crypto, every way you look at it.

The future is bright. Let's build.

🔍 INSIGHT: Ripple, $XRP, and XRP Ledger, three different things. Don’t mix them up.

Great dinner last night with @realDonaldTrump & @s_alderoty.

Strong start to 2025!

[Ripple @Ripple]

.@Ripple x @Chainlink: $RLUSD has adopted the Chainlink standard for verifiable data to fuel DeFi adoption with real-time, secure pricing data.

The future of stablecoins is here: https://t.co/mq3cThLGQJ

[🌸Eri ~ Carpe Diem @sentosumosaba]

The company @Ripple will bring lots of client issued tokens and stablecoins to the #XRP Ledger because asset CUSTODY is a “need to have, not a nice to have.”

👊🏻Pretty slick razor 🪒 and razor blade business. 💡

Learn the difference: XRPL vs XRP vs Ripple

[Ripple @Ripple]

Today, in partnership with @ArchaxEx and @abrdn_plc, we’re excited to announce the first tokenized money market fund on the XRP Ledger.

With $16T in tokenized assets projected by 2030, this milestone unlocks cost savings and settlement efficiencies by deploying capital markets infrastructure on the #XRPL.

.@realDonaldTrump, Congratulations!

Some fodder for your first 100-day checklist to get things moving:
- Fire Gensler. Day 1, no delays.
- In his place, appoint Giancarlo, Brooks, or Gallagher – they’d be massive upgrades in rebuilding the rule of law (and reputation) at the SEC.
- Host a family dinner and get the Rs and Ds moving the digital asset market structure bill forward in the Senate.
- And last but not least, can we get some clarity…..similar to XRP and BTC, that ETH is not security, right?!
