Cryptocurrencies

Ripple is a blockchain-based payment settlement system and currency exchange network designed to facilitate quick and cost-efficient cross-border transactions. Its native cryptocurrency, XRP, serves as a bridge currency enabling real-time value transfers across different currencies and networks. Unlike Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, XRP was pre-mined at launch, with 100 billion tokens created and distributed between the company, founders, and other parties involved.
Ripple's key offering, RippleNet, is a global payments network utilized by banks, payment providers, and financial institutions to facilitate near-instant international money transfers with minimal fees. The network leverages the XRP Ledger, a decentralized and cryptographically secure blockchain that processes transactions using a consensus protocol called the Ripple Protocol Consensus Algorithm (RPCA). This allows for transaction confirmations within a matter of seconds, unlike Bitcoin's proof-of-work system which can take minutes or hours.
As of September 2023, Ripple acquired crypto infrastructure startup Fortress Trust, obtaining a Nevada trust license to expand its offerings beyond cross-border payments. In April 2024, Ripple plans to launch a US dollar-backed stablecoin, entering the USD 150 billion stablecoin market dominated by Tether and Circle's USDC.

The shared ledger enables instant liquidity transfers with real-time settlement finality and transparency, addressing challenges faced by institutions operating globally and relying on traditional cross-border payments infrastructure.
