Valereum Plc (AQSE: VLRM) has announced a further milestone in its proposed transaction with Quorium Global Photonics, following the launch of the $VXRUP stablecoin on Ripple’s XRP Ledger as the core liquidity mechanism for the wider digital asset ecosystem. The company said the stablecoin forms a key part of the infrastructure required to complete the transaction and execute Valereum’s strategy of building an institutional-grade tokenised digital markets platform. Valereum also confirmed it continues to hold its original allocation of 20,000 medium-term note tokens, which carry a stated face value of US$10,000 each, while reiterating that valuations of digital asset tokens remain inherently uncertain. Management said the project has taken longer than expected but believes it is now entering the final stages towards completion.@ValereumPLC
