]]> Ripple President Monica Long has described the company’s strategic partnership with Robinhood as an example of its end-to-end strategy, bringing stablecoin settlement, institutional financing, and treasury management together under one arrangement.

The partnership will give Robinhood access to several parts of Ripple’s blockchain infrastructure as the trading platform expands its financial services.

Long explained in her tweet, that the agreement covers both retail and institutional markets, alongside Robinhood’s internal financial operations.

“From bringing RLUSD to retail and institutional markets to helping Robinhood manage its own treasury operations, this partnership reflects growing institutional demand for integrated solutions,” she said in the announcement.

Monica Long Explains the Partnership’s Scope

Long also addressed the agreement in a post on X, stating, “We’re bringing the full power of Ripple’s blockchain infrastructure to @RobinhoodApp.”

Her comments reflect the breadth of the partnership, which extends beyond stablecoin adoption to include treasury automation and financing services. Rather than focusing on a single product, the arrangement connects multiple Ripple offerings with Robinhood’s retail and institutional businesses.

Long described the deal as “our end-to-end strategy in action,” emphasizing how Ripple’s products can support different financial functions through one integrated relationship.

RLUSD to Support Retail and Institutional Markets

RLUSD is a central component of the agreement. The stablecoin is already available on Robinhood Chain and Bitstamp by Robinhood, while its availability through the Robinhood app is expected later this year.

Robinhood will also use RLUSD on the XRP Ledger for institutional settlement, extending its use across Bitstamp’s institutional business. This arrangement gives the stablecoin additional distribution opportunities while expanding its role in digital asset settlement.

Ripple Treasury and Prime Expand the Agreement

The partnership also covers Robinhood’s internal treasury operations. The company will integrate Ripple Treasury to automate and modernize cash and liquidity management, cash flow forecasting, payments, risk management, and intercompany netting.

Ripple Prime will provide another layer of institutional support. Building on the existing relationship between the companies, the service provides Bitstamp by Robinhood with lending and margin financing across approximately 20 digital assets. Ripple Prime clients can also access spot trading on Bitstamp, with perpetual futures trading support planned for later this year.

Robinhood Crypto and International Senior Vice President and General Manager Johann Kerbrat said the arrangement would give the companies access to RLUSD for institutional settlement, Ripple Treasury for operational needs, and Ripple Prime for financing.

A Broader Institutional Strategy

Robinhood serves 28.6 million funded customers globally, giving the partnership access to a substantial trading ecosystem. By integrating stablecoin settlement, treasury management, and institutional financing, Ripple is extending its services across several areas of Robinhood’s business.

Long’s comments place the agreement within Ripple’s broader strategy of providing connected financial infrastructure to institutional clients. The partnership also expands RLUSD’s potential reach while creating additional opportunities for its use on the XRP Ledger.

]]> Ripple is exploring a new way to connect XRP with institutional financing as the company tests credit solutions for payment customers. Ripple President Monica Long said the firm is working on using loaned XRP as collateral to help fund short-term customer payment flows through the XRP Ledger’s lending infrastructure.

Long made the remarks during a fireside chat at the XRP Seoul event held during Korea Blockchain Week. Crypto commentator Wendy O reported on X that Long said Ripple is testing ways to use loaned XRP as collateral to help fund customer payments through the XRP Ledger’s lending protocol.

The approach could give payment providers and institutional customers access to short-term credit without depending entirely on traditional fiat-based financing.

XRP Could Support Short-Term Credit Lines

Under the proposed model, XRP deposited into lending pools could serve as collateral for credit facilities used by payment providers and institutional participants. Instead of selling XRP to obtain liquidity, eligible users could borrow against XRP held within the lending infrastructure.

The XRP Ledger lending architecture includes Single Asset Vaults and pooled liquidity under the XLS-65 and XLS-66 specifications. These features are designed to support lending activity directly on the ledger while allowing institutions to maintain their existing credit and risk-management processes.

Institutional underwriting would remain off-chain. Financial institutions could conduct credit checks, evaluate counterparties, and determine lending terms before approving a facility. Once established, the loan execution, repayment process, and enforcement of agreed terms could operate through the XRP Ledger.

Ripple is currently conducting credit-related pilots, with activation targeted for 2027.

Lending Could Expand XRP’s Role in Payments

The proposed lending model would introduce a different use of XRP alongside its established role in payment flows. Payment transactions can involve XRP moving between parties and being converted as part of settlement. Lending collateral, however, could remain deposited in vaults for longer periods while backing credit facilities.

This distinction could increase the amount of XRP committed to the lending infrastructure if institutions and payment providers adopt the model at scale. It could also connect payment activity with liquidity that remains on-chain for longer periods.

For payment providers, the model could address working-capital requirements created by settlement delays and pre-funding needs. Remittance companies and fintech firms could potentially access short-term liquidity against eligible XRP collateral instead of depending solely on conventional credit arrangements.

Long’s comments therefore place XRP Ledger lending alongside Ripple’s broader payment efforts. The pilots will determine whether institutions find the structure practical and whether the lending infrastructure can support payment-related credit at scale.

]]> Ripple President Monica Long recently outlined a new potential use for XRP that could expand its role in payment services. At XRP Seoul 2026, Long discussed Ripple’s work on payment credit, the XRP Ledger and the Lending Protocol.

Crypto commentator X Finance Bull highlighted those remarks in a recent tweet and suggested that credit could become an important part of XRP’s utility.

The comments come as Ripple prepares for 2027. Long said the XRP Ledger remains central to the company’s strategy, with Ripple aiming to move more customer transaction volume directly onto the network.

Monica Long Discusses Ripple’s Credit Pilot

Long said Ripple has developed a full-stack payments infrastructure and has seen adoption and transaction volumes grow tenfold year over year so far. She said Ripple wants to bring more of that activity onto the XRP Ledger through RLUSD.

She also discussed a payments-related decentralized exchange pilot that Ripple has been developing. Long said the pilot benefits from using the XRP Ledger’s decentralized exchange in payments.

However, Long then introduced another area of development: credit.

She said many Ripple payments customers, payment service businesses, already use short-term credit to fund their activities. These companies need access to money across different markets and throughout the day, making short-term funding an established part of their payment operations.

XRP Could Help Fund Payments

Long explained that Ripple is working with the Lending Protocol on a model that could use XRP supplied to lending pools as collateral to fund customers’ payments.

“We’re working with the lending protocol,” Long said, “being able to use pools of XRP that are loaned into the pool to use that XRP as collateral to fund some of those payments for our customers.”

Long described the concept as “payments credit meets XRP Ledger and the lending protocol.” She said the initiative could open new ways for XRP to provide utility across customers’ payment and credit transactions.

X Finance Bull focused heavily on this development. The commentator explained that payment businesses can need liquidity before their incoming funds settle. They therefore rely on working capital, prefunded balances and credit facilities to complete transactions.

Under the model Long described, XRP supplied by holders or institutions could support lending pools. Payment customers could then access funding, use the liquidity for transactions and repay the borrowed amount, making the capital available again.

Evernorth Adds to the Lending Narrative

X Finance Bull also pointed to Evernorth’s institutional XRP strategy, which includes plans involving the XRPL Lending Protocol.

The commentator suggested that this could connect XRP holders and institutions supplying capital with payment businesses that need short-term liquidity. Ripple’s payment customers could create demand for funding, while the XRP Ledger and Lending Protocol could provide the infrastructure for that credit activity.

Long emphasized that Ripple currently has the credit initiative in a pilot stage. She said she hopes to take it beyond the pilot in 2027.

For X Finance Bull, the development could give XRP another role within payment infrastructure. Instead of only facilitating the movement of value, XRP could also support payment financing if Ripple advances the lending initiative.

]]> A confluence of catalysts is building around XRP. Digital Asset Investor shared a video highlighting bold predictions from Ripple President Monica Long, alongside two major events set to happen before November.

Monica Long’s Comments

Long appeared at XRP Seoul and offered specific forecasts when asked to put on her prediction hat. On tokenized assets on the XRP Ledger, she noted that the figure grew from $100 million at the start of 2025 to $1 billion by year-end, and has since reached $6 billion. Her projection: “I’ll put a 5x multiplier on it, so I’ll say $30 billion.”

On transaction volume, Long was equally aggressive. With the XRPL currently processing 11 million transactions, she put “a 10x on that,” targeting 100 million transactions driven by the agentic economy.

Utility, Liquidity and Trust

Long returned to Ripple’s foundational thinking on what XRP needs to succeed long-term. She cited a framework built around utility, liquidity and trust, describing XRP as “multifaceted in terms of its utility in the context of solving real institutional, real-world problems.”

The interviewer reinforced the point, calling XRP a bridge asset and noting that more tokenized assets and institutional participation create a compounding effect for the network.

The Inflow Math for $10 XRP

Digital Asset Investor highlighted analysis from Zach Rector showing what inflows are required to push XRP to various price targets. To reach $10, the estimate sits at $1.1 billion to $10.7 billion in exchange inflows. Digital Asset Investor called those numbers “crazy when you think about it” and said the data made him more bullish than he could express.

The XRPL already holds a claim to the fastest-growing real-world assets network in the top 10, up 8.84%. Franklin Templeton’s tokenized fund went live on the network and surged over 6,000%, reaching more than $48 million.

October Catalysts on the Calendar

Digital Asset Investor pointed to two events converging in October, both in New York City. Evernorth is set to begin trading on the NASDAQ under the ticker XRP on or around October 8 following its business combination on October 7. Ripple Swell follows at the end of the month, scheduled for October 27 through 29.

The Legal Clarity Advantage

Digital Asset Investor also raised Brad Garlinghouse’s account of how close Ripple came to shutting down when the SEC filed its lawsuit. Garlinghouse confirmed that he and co-founder Chris Larsen considered distributing XRP to shareholders and dissolving the company.

The lawsuit’s resolution has left XRP as, in Digital Asset Investor’s words, “the only digital asset in the United States with legal clarity.”

]]> XRPL Validator Vet highlighted comments from Ripple President Monica Long at XRPL Seoul 2026, where she discussed the role of liquidity, trust, and utility in the long-term growth of the XRP Ledger ecosystem.

Vet also highlighted two major predictions Long made during the event, including $30 billion in tokenized real-world assets and 100 million AI agent transactions on the XRP Ledger.

Vet described Chris Larsen’s view of liquidity, trust, and utility as an “interesting trinity” for making a digital asset useful and supporting wider adoption. Long explained that the three factors have shaped how the company has viewed XRP since its early years.

She said real utility can drive the adoption flywheel by connecting use cases with greater liquidity and network activity.

Long Links Utility to XRP Ledger Growth

Long said XRP has multiple uses beyond network fees. She linked XRP to institutional and real-world applications while discussing broader activity across the XRP Ledger. The discussion also examined how tokenized assets, institutions, and startups could increase liquidity on the network.

Long agreed that increased activity could support additional network use. She also emphasized the importance of the wider ecosystem. According to Long, institutional use cases connect with consumer applications, while increased utility and liquidity can extend directly to the blockchain and XRP.

Vet highlighted these comments before turning to Long’s predictions for the network’s development through 2027.

Long Predicts $30 Billion in Tokenized Assets

Long predicted that tokenized real-world assets on the XRP Ledger could reach $30 billion by the following year. She explained that the network recorded about $100 million in tokenized assets at the beginning of 2025 and reached approximately $1 billion by the end of that year.

Long then noted that the figure had grown to around $6 billion and said she expected the expansion to continue. She applied a fivefold multiplier to the current level and projected $30 billion.

Vet referenced the prediction in the X post, identifying it as one of Long’s expectations for 2027.

AI Agent Transactions Could Reach 100 Million

Long also made a major prediction about AI agent activity on the XRP Ledger. During the discussion, the speakers cited about 11 million transactions associated with the trend.

Long then predicted a tenfold increase, putting the figure at 100 million transactions by the following year. She said the developing AI-related activity made her bullish on the potential growth.

Vet summarized the prediction by citing more than 100 million AI agent transactions on the XRP Ledger.

Together, Long’s forecasts point to continued growth in tokenization and AI-related network activity. Vet’s post connected both predictions to the broader importance of liquidity, trust, and utility in supporting XRP Ledger adoption.

]]> Something is developing inside Ripple’s payment infrastructure. At XRP Seoul in South Korea, Ripple President Monica Long outlined a mechanism that could place XRP at the center of how financial institutions fund their customers’ payments.

Crypto influencer Amelie (@_Crypto_Barbie) shared Long’s remarks with her audience. The announcement carries real weight for XRP holders watching for concrete adoption signals.

Long’s Remarks at Seoul

Long described a plan involving Ripple’s lending protocol on the XRP Ledger. Once activated, the protocol will pool XRP to be loaned in and used as collateral to fund payments for Ripple’s customers. Long specifically connected this to credit card institutions, saying the vision is where “payments credit meets XRP Ledger and the lending protocol.”

This is not a theoretical future product. Long confirmed that work is already underway. The infrastructure exists on the XRP Ledger. Activating the lending protocol is the next step.

The Case for Price Growth

Amelie’s post highlighted this development as a direct catalyst for XRP’s price growth and adoption. The reasoning is straightforward. When XRP serves as collateral for real payment flows, demand for the asset increases. Institutions need to hold XRP to participate. That participation creates consistent, structural buying pressure rather than speculative activity.

Credit card institutions processing payments through this system would require XRP reserves. The larger the payment volume, the greater the collateral requirement. This ties XRP utility directly to institutional transaction activity.

The Community’s Response

Responses from the XRP community reflected a range of perspectives. One member showed confidence that the system would reach production over time, and voiced surprise at those frustrated by the pace of progress. He found the impatience hard to understand given the scope of what is being built.

Another expressed frustration with the lack of immediate price movement. He stated clearly that he needs results in price appreciation and finds the current situation annoying.

Adoption at an Institutional Level

The XRP Seoul conference gave Long a platform to speak directly to what Ripple is building. The lending protocol integration with payment credit infrastructure represents a significant expansion of XRP’s function. It moves XRP beyond a bridge currency into a collateral asset within structured financial products.

For investors tracking XRP adoption, Long’s remarks offer concrete evidence of development in progress. Activating the lending protocol will be the moment this moves from announcement to reality.

]]> Ripple has spent more than a decade building the regulatory infrastructure that institutions require. BankXRP (@BankXRP) shared remarks from Ripple President Monica Long that speak directly to that effort and to the company’s growing role in enterprise digital asset adoption.

Long described a company that has pursued licensing deliberately, accumulated more than 75 licenses across global jurisdictions, and built a compliance-first culture from the ground up. Long called it “the hard way to do it,” but said Ripple believes it is “the right way.”

Serving Institutions as a Main Character

Long called the company “a main character in especially serving the enterprise and serving institutions.” That confidence comes from the foundation Ripple has built. More than 75 licenses across multiple jurisdictions mean Ripple can operate in markets where other companies face legal barriers.

The Internet of Value vision Long referenced has guided Ripple since its founding. The idea is that value should move globally with the same speed and accessibility as information. Ripple has built its products around that goal, solving the problem with XRP. Long’s remarks show the company believes it now has the scale and the regulatory standing to deliver that vision to institutional clients.

XRP Army Fires Back

Reactions to Long’s remarks were mixed. One community member pushed back on Ripple’s institutional narrative, dismissing the company’s decade-long messaging as repeated promises with little retail payoff. Another was skeptical of the licensing push, calling it “75 useless licenses.”

One commenter called Long a fraud, reminding the community that XRP was still below $1 despite licenses and partnerships. Another critic described the overall communication as empty and full of false optimism, stating that he was done with it.

Optimism From the Community

On the bullish side, one commenter framed the 75+ licenses across custody, payments, and exchange rails as a genuine competitive moat, questioning which part of the lifecycle competitors would find hardest to replicate. Another noted that at roughly $1, XRP’s risk-reward profile compares favorably to other digital assets.

Built for Institutions and Built to Last

Long claimed Ripple can deliver the entire digital asset lifecycle, covering custody, compliance, payments, and settlement, under one roof. Ripple solves that problem for institutions by consolidating what would otherwise require multiple vendors, reducing both cost and risk. It is a meaningful differentiator for partners seeking legal certainty, operational reliability, and a proven track record.

Long also emphasized longevity. During Ripple’s 13 years of operation, it has deepened institutional relationships and reinforced its status as a partner that isn’t going anywhere. That statement is notable in a space where companies have failed, restructured, or exited markets under regulatory pressure.

The post Hard Truth for the XRP Army: What Ripple CEO and Monica Long Are Doing appeared first on Times Tabloid.

]]> XRP investors who expect every major Ripple announcement to produce an immediate price increase may need to reconsider how they view the company’s long-term strategy.

Wealth strategist Arthur clearly stated in a tweet that Ripple executives Brad Garlinghouse and Monica Long are primarily focused on developing global payment infrastructure rather than managing XRP’s market price.

Arthur Says Ripple’s Mission Extends Beyond XRP’s Price

Arthur explained what he considers the central objective of Ripple’s leadership. He said Garlinghouse and Long do not begin each day focused on the performance of individual XRP holders’ portfolios.

Instead, he said their work centers on building global payment infrastructure, competing with traditional financial systems, settling large volumes of transactions and enabling capital to move across borders more efficiently.

According to Arthur, XRP’s price should be viewed as a potential consequence of that development rather than Ripple’s primary objective. He suggested that investors can become disappointed when major announcements fail to produce an immediate price increase because they measure progress through short-term market movements.

Arthur encouraged the XRP community to view Ripple as an infrastructure-focused company working toward a larger financial objective. He said investors should approach XRP as an infrastructure investment rather than as an asset that must continuously produce short-term price gains.

He also emphasized that his comments do not constitute financial advice and described the post as educational.

Commenters Question XRP’s Value Accrual

One commenter, OptimaPs, largely agreed with Arthur but added that investors can still connect Ripple’s long-term goals with their own interests.

The commenter said that agreeing with Ripple’s vision does not mean investors must share the company’s timeline. However, they maintained that Ripple’s success and the interests of XRP holders can remain closely connected, similar to how investors evaluate companies in traditional markets.

Another commenter, Alew, agreed with Arthur “for the most part” but raised concerns about Ripple’s transparency toward XRP investors. The commenter said investors are justified in demanding clearer information about how Ripple’s business activities could create value for XRP itself.

Alew compared Ripple’s approach with other blockchain projects, specifically mentioning Canton Network and its CEO Yuval Rooz as examples of what the commenter considers more regular communication about token value accrual.

The commenter also questioned Ripple’s emphasis on RLUSD and other business initiatives, arguing that some recent developments appear more directly beneficial to Ripple as a company than to XRP. Alew said investors should focus on clear tokenomics and understand how value generated by Ripple’s expanding business could reach the XRP token.

Arthur’s post therefore presents a straightforward distinction between Ripple’s corporate mission and XRP’s market performance. His position is that investors should evaluate the infrastructure Ripple is building instead of expecting every announcement to trigger a price increase.

]]> Ripple President Monica Long has responded to Ripple’s recent announcement of strategic investments in ZILO and Licuido. She believes that institutional capital markets have already crossed a turning point, moving from pilots to production and from issuing tokenized assets to actively using them. That is crucial for XRP enthusiasts to watch.

From Pilots to Production

Long described the past year as a turning point. “We’ve seen the veritable light switch flip,” she wrote, “from bank pilots to production, from issuing tokenized assets like money market funds and liquidity funds to using them.”

That shift is significant. Tokenized assets are moving from issuance into active use, with major projects like the DTCC’s tokenization pilot moving forward. This means the infrastructure supporting them must be production-grade, scalable, and fully regulated.

ZILO provides digital transfer agency technology for tokenized share classes. Licuido operates as an FCA-regulated platform for digital asset issuance, distribution, and collateral mobility. Both operate on the XRP Ledger. Long’s words confirm that these investments are not forward-looking bets. They are responses to institutional demand that already exists.

Capital Markets Are Moving Onchain

Long stated that institutional capital markets are “moving in one direction, onchain 24/7.” That rules out any suggestion that the tokenization trend is experimental at the institutional level. The direction, according to the president of one of the most active companies in this space, is settled.

This has clear relevance for XRP. The XRP Ledger serves as the settlement layer for Ripple’s institutional infrastructure. Atomic settlement, collateral mobility, and delivery-versus-payment transactions all run through the XRPL. As more institutions move their capital markets activity onchain, the ledger processes more volume.

The Full Stack

Long also clarified Ripple’s stated objective. “Our goal remains to provide the full stack of digital asset infrastructure,” she wrote, “allowing institutional participants to take advantage of the entire lifecycle of a tokenized asset on the XRP Ledger.”

That lifecycle includes issuance, custody, distribution, collateral use, and atomic settlement. The investments in ZILO and Licuido fill two specific gaps in that stack. With those added, Ripple’s infrastructure covers more of the process from end to end.

What It Means for XRP

Long’s post shows confidence in a transition that is already underway. Institutions are no longer testing whether tokenized assets work. They are actively deploying them, and Ripple is building the infrastructure to support that deployment on the XRPL.

The XRP Ledger sits at the center of that activity, processing transactions, settling trades, and supporting collateral markets that operate around the clock.

]]> Ripple President Monica Long has made a striking claim about institutional demand for XRP and the company’s native stablecoin, RLUSD. Entrepreneur and Bitcoin investor Lark Davis took notice, highlighting her assertion that the level of interest is “nothing like we’ve ever seen.”

Long is not a retail commentator. She leads institutional relationships at one of the most connected companies in crypto. Her words carry institutional weight. Davis noted that price has yet to reflect what Long described.

Why the Price Has Not Moved

Davis addressed the gap between Long’s statement and XRP’s price directly. He attributed it to how institutions operate. Institutional adoption runs on timelines that retail traders find difficult to endure. Board approvals, compliance reviews, custody arrangements, and legal sign-offs all take place before capital moves on-chain.

Davis said the demand is “real, and it is in the pipeline.” The process is slow by design. Institutions do not react to news cycles. They move through structured approval processes that can span months or years.

Davis also noted that the current market environment plays a role. “That’s a bear market,” he said, “so it’s kind of understandable” that the digital asset’s price has not responded. Bear markets suppress reaction times across the board.

What This Means for XRP

The significance of Long’s statement is rooted in her position. As Ripple’s president, she has direct visibility into the institutional pipeline. When she describes demand as unprecedented, she is drawing on relationships and deal flow that are not visible to the public market.

Davis pointed out that this combination has a historical pattern. Demand builds in the background while price compresses. Then the market adjusts when institutional capital reaches spot markets. He said this pattern “tends to resolve with the price going up.”

The key variable is timing. Retail participants often exit before institutional capital arrives. Davis emphasized that the critical question is whether investors are positioned before it hits the spot markets.

Will XRP’s Price Go Up?

Institutional demand for XRP and RLUSD is building through compliance channels rather than through public markets. Long’s statement confirms that Ripple sees activity at a scale it has not seen before. Davis sees this as a structural setup. Capital is in motion, but it has not reached the market.

When it does, the price will reflect it. The process is slow, but according to both Long and Davis, it is already underway.
