I’m flying back home to the U.K. tonight from the USA.
I highly suspect I’ll be still in economy unless XRP pulls a magical stunt in the next 10 hours…
At least I’ll be on a redeye and I am one of those lucky people who can sleep in any way including standing up if I want.
Ripple closed Swell with a clear path to $900 million in annualized product revenue by year-end, after multi-product customers tripled and payments volume is projected near $150 billion.
The OCC granted final approval for Ripple National Trust Bank, giving RLUSD federally supervised reserve management and custody.
BNY now supports institutional custody of both XRP and RLUSD, with exploration of tokenized trade finance on the XRP Ledger.
C2FO is moving Instant Pay financing and settlement onto XRPL using RLUSD so suppliers can receive funds in seconds instead of days.
These steps compound: regulated bank status, major custodian access, and real invoice settlement now sit on the same ledger.
Utility is being installed while attention stays elsewhere.
Which of these integrations do you expect to show the clearest on-chain volume first?

Day 3 week 5 of posting till XRP makes me a millionaire.
Thirty-one days in. Week 5, day 3. Same post. Same bet. Still not hopping.
Rockets still lit. Cash still flying. Destination unchanged.
2027 will be even bigger when they become a bank.
2028-2030 will be the years where the plan will come to fruition and everything will be complete.
XRP is one of the chosen ones.
2026 marks Ripple’s best year ever. Last year, we set out to build the full stack of blockchain infrastructure, bolstered by native product growth and strategic M&A. This year, it’s all about integration, and the results speak for themselves.
Now, it’s time for @RippleSwell to take center stage: on.ripple.com/48kmVP1
These are the signals that tell you what’s not stoppable.
People will always oppose progress.
Tokenisation is coming whether people want it or not.
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 33 major US companies now oppose having their stocks tokenized on OKX and ICE's planned exchange:
• IBM
• Dell
• Intel
• IonQ
• AMD
• Intuit
• Oracle
• Adobe
• Verizon
• Sandisk
• Moderna
• Alphabet
• AppLovin
• Microsoft
• JPMorgan
• Broadcom
• Caterpillar
• Coca-Cola
• Qualcomm
• Rocket Lab
• CoreWeave
• Wells Fargo
• McDonald's
• Arm Holdings
• Cisco Systems
• Applied Digital
• Western Digital

Ripple received final OCC approval to establish Ripple National Trust Bank, a federally supervised national trust bank.
The bank is authorized to manage the segregated reserves backing RLUSD, act as collateral trustee for holders, and provide fiduciary digital asset custody.
RLUSD issuance remains with the NYDFS-regulated Standard Custody & Trust Company, adding a layer of federal oversight to the existing state framework.
This structure positions RLUSD with dual supervision as its market capitalization sits above $2.5 billion.
The approval continues the pattern of digital asset infrastructure moving inside regulated banking channels rather than remaining outside them.

Is this a go for everything or just a little tokenisation?
I’m hoping it’s everything.
I know it’s a little bit.
Either is positive no matter what way you see it.
The announcements are coming thick and fast today.
Another killer piece if news out of Ripple HQ.
I can’t wait to see what SWELL 2026 produces!
Trade finance is coming to the XRP Ledger!
Today, we’re expanding our collaboration with @BNYglobal across custody and tokenized trade finance, bringing BNY’s institutional scale together with $RLUSD, @XRP and the XRP Ledger.

I have a breaking point.
It’s nothing to do with time limits but it has everything to do with progress.
The goals set out by Ripple are to have the global finances run on the XRP ledger.
The moment that goal feels unattainable in crypto and on the XRP ledger is the moment I’ll pull the plug.
How about you guys?
Well this is a solid way to wake up.
So @ripple is about to become a bank.
Officially this is going to change things!
Big news heading into @RippleSwell: the @USOCC has granted final approval for Ripple National Trust Bank.
This gives Ripple a federally supervised platform to support $RLUSD and provide digital asset custody to enterprises.
We’ve always said crypto and banks work better together — this is what that looks like. Real innovation, real accountability, federal oversight.
The revolution isn't happening outside the system. It's happening from within it.

Aviva just put a tokenised share class of its largest fund on the XRP Ledger.
Their Sterling (GBP) Liquidity Fund is ~£22 billion AUM -Aviva Investors’ biggest and a new on-chain share class now sits on XRPL alongside the USD one launched in July.
Key points:
• Only a share class is tokenised, not the whole £22bn. Combined tokenised holdings so far are around £86 million.
• Same investment objective, risk profile, daily liquidity and regulatory protections as the conventional money-market fund (originally launched 2002).
• Aimed at professional investors.
BNY holds the assets;
Komainu handles digital custody;
Licuido provides the tokenisation layer.
• Gives pound-based cash a native XRPL route without forcing FX conversion into the USD product.
Real institutional distribution is moving onto the ledger, one regulated share class at a time.
What other asset managers do you expect to follow with sterling or euro products next?

Big news as Aviva Investors announces the launch of a tokenized share class of the Aviva Investors Sterling (GBP) Liquidity Fund on the XRP Ledger.
The Sterling (GBP) Liquidity Fund is Aviva Investors’ largest fund at around £22 billion in assets under management, and this move marks an expansion of Aviva Investors’ tokenised fund offering, following the launch of its tokenized USD Liquidity Fund in July.
Investors receive the same protections as those in the conventional fund, which was initially launched in 2002.
Markets are moving to 24/7 access and real-time settlement. This is what that looks like in practice.
For professional investors only. Capital at risk.

The biggest XRP week of the year starts today.
Grab your coffee, have a quick read and get excited about the announcements that we might get.
Ripple Swell opens tomorrow in Manhattan with more than 100 speakers and 80 sessions that put institutional finance and XRPL development in the same building.
Parallel conversations around tokenization, RLUSD liquidity, and RWA custody are already documented in the preceding days.
When the event agenda and the on-ledger placements line up, the documentation becomes harder to dismiss as marketing.
The ledger is processing real institutional volume while the conference draws the decision-makers.
Who’s going to be there?
What do you think they’ll announce?

Day 7 week 4 of posting till XRP makes me a millionaire.
A whole month in.
Week 4 done. Twenty-eight days. Same post. Same bet. Still not hopping.
Rockets still lit. Cash still flying. Week 5 starts tomorrow.
What’s that?
Franklin templeton and Ripple?
Grab a coffee for your quick Sunday morning read…
Institutions just parked another $150 million dollars of tokenised money-market shares on the XRP Ledger while most eyes stayed on price charts.
Why?
Well Franklin Templeton’s sgBENJI issuance landed in a single XRPL wallet, lifting the total holding toward the $200 million range at recent share prices.
This is not a pilot announcement or a roadmap slide; it is actual shares already issued and held on-ledger.
The move expands the pool of institutional-grade, yield-bearing assets that can sit natively on XRPL alongside payments and settlement activity.
Quiet RWA growth of this size tends to precede broader liquidity and collateral use cases once the surrounding infrastructure matures.
Documenting the difference between headline volatility and actual on-ledger issuance keeps the long-term picture clear.

Off travelling again. It’s just before 7am and I am starting strong.
Back to the USA for some cabin escapism in the Carolina’s!
See you all on the flip side!
PS if XRP could pump whilst I am in the air I would appreciate it.
@SteveXRPuk I was trying to tag you in this the other day as I thought you’d approve of the 7am beverage start but couldn’t work out the new name haha.
