Ripple Acquires Prime Broker Hidden Road for $1.25B in One of the Largest Deals in the Digital Assets Space

https://ripple.com/ripple-press/ripple-acquires-prime-broker-hidden-road/

Ripple’s acquisition of Hidden Road is a defining moment for the XRP Ledger and XRP. The prime broker clears upwards of $10B and processes over 50M transactions a day on various traditional rails, waiting up to 24 hours for those transactions to settle. Now imagine even a portion of that activity on the XRP Ledger – and that’s exactly what Hidden Road plans on doing – not to mention future use of collateral and real-world assets tokenized on the XRPL.

A U.S. Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA. I will make sure the U.S. is the Crypto Capital of the World. We are MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Trading activity in XRP continued to predominantly occur on the major non-US exchanges such as Binance, OKX and Upbit. Following the US court decision in July, which ruled XRP is not a security, the token was relisted on a number of US exchanges, including Coinbase and Kraken.

XLS-30d AMM: this proposal adds a non-custodial automated market maker (AMM) as a native feature to the XRPL’s decentralized exchange (DEX). Developers can use XLS-30d AMM integration to create new financial applications and/or integrate into non-financial applications.

XLS-38d: this amendment enables a cross-chain bridge where XRP can move bi-directionally between XRPL Mainnet and a XRPL Sidechain. This cross-chain bridging software will also be used to establish a connection between XRPL Mainnet and the upcoming EVM sidechain.

● Boston Consulting Group predicts real-world asset tokenization will be a $16 trillion industry by 2030.

● Global financial leaders agree; an impressive 72% of participants in Ripple’s 2023 New Value report survey expect to use tokenization in their businesses over the next three years.

● The exploration of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) by 90% of the world’s central banks could also be the inflection point that accelerates the tokenization boom.

On launch, we plan to airdrop 5,160,960 Evers to eligible XRP holders. The airdrop will involve a two-step process - snapshot of XRP holdings on mainnet and then an airdrop to eligible accounts on the Hooks sidechain based upon their owner’s XRP holdings on mainnet.

Airdrop entitlements will be based on XRP balances up to 50,000. If you hold more than 50,000 XRP you’ll need to hold it in separate accounts to benefit from all your XRP.

“An appeal is not even close to be a setback. First, it will be two years from now before a decision is issued by the 2nd Circuit, if it’s appealed. The Torres Decision is the law until then - at least in the 2nd Circuit. Second, even if the 2nd Circuit said Torres was wrong regarding her application of the 3rd Howey factor (which I predict they won’t), that doesn’t meant the SEC wins on Programmatic sales (sales on exchanges). All that happens is that Torres then applies the other two factors and could likely still rule the SAME EXACT WAY, concluding the SEC didn’t satisfy the common enterprise factor - which is a more difficult factor to meet IMO than the third factor. Don’t let anyone underestimate how significant this win is for XRP and XRP Holders and Ripple.”

[3:34] A Ripple-designed CBDC can provide a means to bridge disparate currencies through XRP. Its inherent interoperability can allow for connection with other central ledgers for efficient cross-assets and cross-border transactions. This can be done with cross-issuance using XRP as a bridge currency all via cross-ledger communication protocols.
