Deposit Tokens Gain Favor in Commercial Banking
https://www.pymnts.com/blockchain/2024/why-deposit-tokens-rule-tokenization-landscape/
NOTE: tokenization of real-world asset use cases growing...new market opportunities emerging...very interesting...
(excerpt form article) "...While there exists a variety of “tokens” within the 21st-century payments and financial services landscape, with innovations ranging from cryptocurrency tokens to tokenized payments, it is a third token, tokenized commercial bank assets — or deposit tokens — that are increasingly being embraced as liquid means of payment and stores of value in blockchain-native environments.
Ripple and Archax announced Thursday (June 13) that they extended their existing partnership, aiming to bring hundreds of millions of dollars of tokenized real-world assets onto the XRP Ledger. The move shows that meeting the demand for blockchain-native cash equivalents is top of mind for firms.
As the digital transformation of finance accelerates, the landscape of money is evolving rapidly and tokenized deposits represent an advancement in the way banks and their end-users perceive and use digital currency, bridging the gap between traditional banking and the world of blockchain technology.
Deposit tokens are digital representations of traditional bank deposits, issued by regulated financial institutions and backed 1-to-1 by fiat currency held in reserve. Unlike cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin or ethereum, which are decentralized and often subject to volatility, deposit tokens offer stability and reliability by ensuring each token corresponds to a specific amount of fiat currency. This backing by real-world assets provides a layer of trust and security that is necessary for widespread adoption..."

He emphasized the close ties that will bind RLUSD to XRP, making their coexistence not only possible but highly synergistic.
Echoing this sentiment, Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple’s CEO, stressed that the RLUSD will be an accelerator for the XRP ecosystem as a whole. Designed and conceived to foster success for all stakeholders, this innovative stablecoin will greatly facilitate access and use of XRP by offering optimized entry and exit gateways. “The arrival of the RLUSD does not compromise our unwavering commitment to XRP. On the contrary, it will strengthen its unique position by allowing it to fully deploy its strengths to serve ever more varied and promising use cases.”..."

SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda Praises Tokenization

It could also reduce the need for intermediaries, further lowering transaction costs.
However, Uyeda stressed the importance of regulators understanding the costs, benefits, and risks associated with tokenization. He referenced the UK Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) ongoing efforts to explore tokenization for FCA-authorized funds. The FCA’s detailed research and interim reports provide a valuable blueprint for other regulators considering similar steps.
The FCA’s approach underlines the necessity for thorough research and cautious implementation to protect investors while fostering innovation. Uyeda emphasized the importance of global regulatory cooperation in navigating the challenges posed by emerging technologies..."

"...This collaboration brings together Ripple’s enterprise blockchain and crypto solutions and Archax’s capabilities as a U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)-regulated digital asset exchange, broker and custodian, the companies said in a Wednesday (June 13) press release.
Because Archax works with financial institutions to enable them to tokenize their financial RWAs, this collaboration will allow those institutions to select the XRPL to do so, according to the release.
“We have hit the tipping point for mainstream adoption of digital assets for real-world use cases,” Graham Rodford, CEO at Archax, said in the release. “There is clear real-world utility in use cases like RWA tokenization for the operational efficiency, access to liquid markets and transparency inherent to crypto, and Archax has already tokenized assets such as equities, debt instruments and money market funds.”
The XRPL is an open-source public decentralized Layer 1 blockchain built to power institutional-grade financial use cases, according to the release. Its built-in capabilities include tokenization, a native decentralized exchange and compliance features..."

XRP Ready For Massive Institutional Adoption Amid Ripple’s Latest Acquisition and Stablecoin Push
https://zycrypto.com/xrp-ready-for-massive-institutional-adoption-amid-ripples-latest-acquisition-and-stablecoin-push/
some good points there
Great, Toncoin flipping XRP is looking very inevitable. Just like the way it was last year with Solana. Wish I had got more when it was below 7 bucks.
Every time I see a positive post about this ecosystem, and the token keeps sliding, I am reminded that holding XRP is not equivalent to holding a share in Ripple. In other words, we didn't need a court case and a judge to tell us what we already knew: XRP is not a security. You want to invest in Ripple, you can use Linqto (mentioned in an earlier post). You'll need to be an accredited investor, or maybe become a Financial Advisor. (I think Crypto Eri had links to a course last year to do that.)
Speaking of YouTube influencers, with the exception of the level-headed Eri, I don't know who is worse: all the crypto channels that either dismiss XRP as a matter of course or decry the tokenomics, or the pumpers who make ridiculous pie-in-the-sky price predictions. I'm sorry, at this point, even $10 sounds like complete nonsense. Such a 20x would put it above ETH's current market cap. And, as I mentioned before, UP the market cap list is not the direction we seem to be going.
I just noticed the price of Warner Bros. Discovery. One TON is now worth more than a share of WBD. And they already have them beat on market cap. Not sure that is any consolation. Just saying... it's a new world (with a lot of the worst vestiges from the old still hanging in there). Speaking of which, I have sometimes thought that holding XRP was a hedge against nefarious types like the IMF and WEF. Now we are adding BRICS to that mix? Not sure how I feel about that.

Hong Kong-based Fubon Bank, in partnership with blockchain firm Ripple, conducted a real estate tokenization pilot test. This initiative leverages Hong Kong’s central bank digital currency (CBDC), the eHKD, to tokenize real estate assets and enable collateralized lending. Not only does this aim to eliminate counterparty risk, but it also provides investors with real-time visibility into the loan-to-value ratios of the tokenized properties – a feature that aligns well with the investors’ focus on data transparency and risk management..."

"..."Tokenization, which U.K. Finance defines as 'the digital representation of financial assets using distributed ledger technology,' presents a significant new opportunity for the U.K.," Labour said in the document, introduced by Rachel Reeves, the shadow chancellor, and Tulip Siddiq, shadow economic secretary to the Treasury. U.K. Finance is a lobby group representing the banking and finance industry.

Crypto industry's lobbying drive will pay off in US elections, Ripple president says
https://www.reuters.com/technology/crypto-industrys-lobbying-drive-will-pay-off-us-elections-ripple-president-says-2024-06-04/
"...Speaking at the Money20/20 fintech conference in Amsterdam on Tuesday, Ripple President Monica Long told Reuters that the PAC is bipartisan and has a single focus: supporting candidates who back the regulations desired by the crypto industry.
"I think as an industry, especially for us companies based in the U.S., we’re frustrated with how far the U.S. is lagging on setting rules," she said. "This whole dynamic of setting rules through enforcement ... is really unproductive and not getting us anywhere."..."
"...Asked if she was optimistic that the U.S. crypto industry's voice will be heard, Long said, "I’m optimistic, yes. I’m hopeful.”
The crypto industry is increasingly trying to influence U.S. lawmakers as it faces heightened scrutiny from regulators and politicians, especially since bankruptcies at major crypto firms in 2022 spooked investors, exposed fraud and misconduct and left millions of crypto investors out of pocket..."

A Digital Asset Built for Global Payments
International payments, especially in emerging markets, require businesses to hold pre-funded accounts in destination currencies. It’s a costly endeavor that ties up resources. RippleNet provides an alternative. While any financial institution on the network enjoys reliable, instant and lower-cost transactions, those who use the digital asset XRP to source liquidity can do so in seconds—freeing up capital and guaranteeing the most competitive rates available today.
How On-Demand Liquidity Works
RippleNet customers can use XRP to bridge two currencies in three seconds, ensuring payments are quickly sent and received in local currency on either side of a transaction.
Faster, less costly and more scalable than any other digital asset, XRP and the XRP Ledger are used to power innovative technology across the payments space. RippleNet customers can use XRP for sourcing liquidity in cross-border transactions, instead of pre-funding—ensuring instant settlement, lower exchange fees and more efficient use of working capital. This same technology is also leveraged in use cases for micropayments, e-commerce, exchanges and peer-to-peer services. XRP and the XRP Ledger are open-source technology that anyone can build on. To get started, learn more at XRPL.org.
