RippleX has released updated facts outlining XRP’s role across payments, stablecoins, and tokenized assets. The update, shared recently by RippleX, comes as momentum builds around XRP spot ETFs and institutional treasury use. According to RippleX, XRP continues to function as a settlement and liquidity asset across global financial systems.
XRP’s Design and Supply Structure
According to RippleX, XRP was created in 2012 alongside the launch of the XRP Ledger. Its total supply is permanently capped at 100 billion tokens. No additional XRP can be minted, and no entity, including Ripple, can alter the supply.
RippleX described XRP as a neutral bridge asset. It facilitates value transfers between payments, stablecoins, tokenized assets, and collateral. This structure allows XRP to support settlement without relying on mining or staking incentives.
RippleX also stated that XRP holds clear regulatory standing in the United States. In addition, XRP ranks among the top three digital assets by market capitalization, based on current market data.
XRPL Network Activity and Consensus Model
RippleX said the XRP Ledger operates as a public, decentralized blockchain. It runs independently of Ripple as a company. The network includes more than 116 independent validators and over 910 public nodes.
XRPL uses a Proof-of-Association consensus model. According to RippleX, the system requires no mining, no staking, and no block rewards. Transaction finality typically occurs within three to five seconds.
Since launch, the XRPL has processed more than four billion transactions. It has closed over 100 million ledgers and supported more than 6.4 million wallets. RippleX reported that the network has settled over one trillion dollars in value.
Institutional Adoption, RWAs, and ETFs
RippleX said XRPL ranks among the top ten blockchains for real-world asset activity. Issuers include Ondo Finance, OpenEden, Archax with abrdn, Guggenheim Treasury Services, Mercado Bitcoin, VERT, and the Dubai Land Department.
The network also supports multiple stablecoins, including RLUSD, USDC, XSGD, AUDD, BBRL, USBD, and EURCV. XRP often serves as a liquidity pair between these assets.
RippleX noted that Evernorth XRP became the first institutional XRP treasury. It has secured over one billion dollars in commitments. XRP also now underpins several spot ETFs, including products from Bitwise, Canary Capital, Franklin Templeton, and Grayscale.
Wrapped XRP further extends XRP usage to the XRPL EVM Sidechain and other ecosystems, including Ethereum, Solana, Optimism, and HyperEVM.
