Gemini Opens Direct XRP Ledger Access in Singapore

Gemini has given XRP adoption in Asia a significant boost by enabling direct access to the XRP Ledger (XRPL) for users in Singapore. This move is seen as big news for the XRP community in Asia, according to Gemini co-founder Tyler Winklevoss.

With this development, Singapore-based users can now transfer XRP directly through the XRPL, providing a native way to transfer the asset between Gemini and external wallets. This support goes beyond simply offering XRP for trading, as it gives users a more direct connection to the blockchain that powers XRP and the wider XRPL ecosystem.

The rollout is particularly significant because Singapore is one of Asia's leading fintech and digital-asset hubs. As blockchain use cases expand across payments, stablecoins, tokenized assets, and decentralized finance, exchange support for native XRPL transfers can help connect more users to the ecosystem.
