1/ The stablecoin market is booming – around $150B today, and projected to soar past $2.8T by 2028. There's a clear demand for trust, stability, and utility. That's why later this year we’re launching a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the USD on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum.

XRP is NOT a security. We find out what we all knew was indeed true two and a half years later. Proud to work @Ripple and thankful for the support of the industry.

A huge win today – as a matter of law - XRP is not a security. Also a matter of law - sales on exchanges are not securities. Sales by executives are not securities. Other XRP distributions – to developers, to charities, to employees are not securities.

$XRP has traded more than SOL in 2023 in the US but has only been relisted by those exchanges since mid-July. The cumulative volume of $XRP in2 months has been more than that of $SOL in 9 months! @Ripple @RippleXDev #XRP
