XRP Illuminates Seoul's Iconic Tower in Grand Celebration
XRP's presence in South Korea was celebrated on a grand scale as more than 5,000 attendees gathered for the XRP SEOUL 2026 event. The festivities culminated with a lighting spectacle at the iconic Namsan Seoul Tower, one of the city's most recognizable landmarks.
The tower, standing tall at 236.7 meters, was illuminated with a vibrant visual display featuring the XRP logo and logos of various ecosystem partners, including Doppler Finance and Evernorth. This 'record day' for the Korean XRP community marked a significant milestone in the digital asset's growing presence in Asia.
XRP Asia, a dedicated organization aimed at advancing the XRP ecosystem throughout the region, was officially launched during the event. Led by Sabrina Tachdjian, a recognized leader in blockchain innovation, XRP Asia seeks to bolster resources for builders, startups, and communities, supporting growth through targeted programs and events across the Asia-Pacific area.
The establishment of XRP Asia is seen as a strategic step towards making the XRP Ledger (XRPL) the preferred blockchain for development within the region. With strong global momentum and increased demand for ecosystem support, XRP Asia aims to enhance connections, pathways, and resources to help the ecosystem expand and thrive throughout the region.
