In her post, she quoted Garlinghouse, “Ripple has partnered with several central banks around the world, some we’ve announced, some we haven’t yet announced!” She then added, “Now that the SEC case is resolved, imagine all the partnerships that will soon be announced…XRP”

The post referenced a video clip where Garlinghouse discussed Ripple’s role in working with central banks and using the XRP Ledger for digital asset issuance.
His remarks focused on the challenges of cross-border payments, the distinction between central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and stablecoins, and the ongoing experimentation by various governments with blockchain technology.
Ripple’s Work with Central Banks and the XRP Ledger
In the video, Garlinghouse described Ripple’s primary goal as addressing cross-border payment inefficiencies. He noted that “central bank digital currencies are domestic by nature” and are generally not designed to solve international payment challenges.
He acknowledged the broader trend of governments experimenting with digital assets, including CBDCs and stablecoins, and how Ripple has positioned itself within this space.

He then made a notable statement regarding Ripple’s engagement with central banks, saying, “Ripple has partnered with several central banks around the world, some we’ve announced, some we haven’t yet announced.”
He elaborated that these partnerships involve working with large financial institutions, stating that the company’s expertise in dealing with global banks and payment firms has contributed to its ability to collaborate with central banks.
The Context of Ripple’s Regulatory Landscape
Amelie’s tweet suggests that with the resolution of Ripple’s legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company can now announce new partnerships.
The lawsuit, which was filed in December 2020, centered on the SEC’s allegations regarding XRP, but recent developments have provided more regulatory clarity for Ripple and its business operations.
With this legal hurdle largely addressed, the company may now disclose additional collaborations with central banks. Ripple has previously confirmed partnerships with entities such as the Republic of Palau and Bhutan for CBDC initiatives, and speculation continues about further agreements that may not yet be public.
Growing Institutional Interest in Blockchain-Based Payments
Garlinghouse’s comments reflect a broader trend in the financial sector, where governments and enterprises are increasingly exploring blockchain for payment solutions. Ripple’s engagement with central banks aligns with global efforts to modernize financial infrastructure, particularly as digital currencies gain traction.
Amelie’s post highlighted the potential for new announcements in this space. While Ripple has disclosed some of its central bank collaborations, Garlinghouse’s remarks suggest that additional partnerships remain undisclosed. If these are revealed, they could further establish Ripple’s role in the evolving digital payments landscape.
