Ripple is aiming at a $5 Trillion daily market share as the company continues to attract global institutions and traditional finance executives.
During the Blockchain Futuristic Conference in Toronto, Ripple’s Head of Defi Boris Alergant said the company’s payment flagship RippleNet is currently facilitating over $15 billion per year in payments.
#Ripple and #XRP are positioned to serve a $5 Trillion dollar a day Global Finance market. And we have legal clarity to serve that market.
Let that sink in! https://t.co/8MMUOpzAqS— Digital PerspectivesPermaBull🪝 (@DigPerspectives) August 17, 2023
In his speech, Allergan made it clear their $100 million fight against the SEC sought to establish regulatory clarity. By sorting out legal clarity, Ripple believes institutions will now interact with digital assets in a way that doesn’t cause compliance trouble.
The blockchain payments provider revealed 44% of respondents in a study expect payment solutions to be a key driver for crypto adoption.
According to Ripple, the company will capitalize on attracting institutions that facilitate cross-border transactions. Findings from the survey outlined cross-border payments as the top XRP user case.
As a blockchain-based solution, Ripple uses advanced cryptography to secure and facilitate transactions.
Unlike public blockchains such as Ethereum and Bitcoin, Ripple does not offer a shared ledger where everyone can track transactions. This means only people with permissions or parties to a transaction can see the transaction.
Therefore, the blockchain is not completely anonymous and runs on a decentralized structure, which on countless occasions has come under attack for being centralized.
For this and other reasons, the Securities and Exchanges Commission filed a case against Ripple for distributing an unregistered asset, XRP. Ripple eventually won the case on July 13, 2023, in a landmark ruling that saw Judge Analisa Torres disqualify XRP as a security.
This court win not only positioned XRP as a virtual currency but became an important milestone for regulatory clarity around digital assets. In an X (formerly Twitter) statement, popular XRP whale @RipplesinWhales poised what if XRP and BTC were the only cryptocurrencies in the market with any regulatory clarity.
This comes after Ripple Labs estimated that XRP was going to drive a $250 trillion payment economy by 2027. Meanwhile, Ripple (XRP) has dropped by 20% in the last 24 hours in a crypto meltdown that saw Bitcoin(BTC) plunge below $26K.
