Ripple Prime Clears $3 Trillion, Expands Institutional Capacity with Collateralized Lending
Ripple Prime has cleared over $3 trillion in a year for its institutional customers. The platform now offers expanded financing and clearing capacity after securing an investment-grade debt raise of $275 million.
Crypto commentator X Finance Bull sees this as a turning point for XRP's institutional role, saying 'XRP is entering the phase where institutions don't just BUY it. They can make it WORK.'
Ripple has confirmed that collateralized XRP lending is expanding inside Ripple Prime. This means hedge funds and other institutions can borrow against their XRP holdings without selling them.
X Finance Bull described this as 'capital velocity,' where XRP stays within the institutional ecosystem through a cycle of lending, borrowing, and settling transactions on the XRP Ledger.
