At the end of every payment is a person. A family in Brazil with a tap in their home for the first time. A mother in Peru who no longer spends hours collecting water. Together with @Water, Ripple has helped reach 1 million people with access to safe water and sanitation — using Ripple Payments, Custody and $RLUSD to move money faster and at lower cost, so more of every dollar arrives where it matters most: on.ripple.com/4iduI7i When every second counts – we make it count.

Caught up with @Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and David Schwartz at Ripple #Swell to talk the future of @Ripple, institutional utility, and the path ahead for #XRP. Brad breaks down why 2026 has been a massive year for transaction volume growth, and David Schwartz shares his vision on mass retail adoption and where we're heading next.

Brad Garlinghouse says at @Ripple Swell that XRP remains the company's top priority despite its growing focus on RLUSD. “We only want to do things that are good for XRP.”

Trust or innovation. Why choose? With Ripple, you don't have to. The benefits of blockchain, built for financial institutions. It's happening with Ripple.

On the 10th anniversary of @RippleSwell, it felt apt to share Ripple’s best year ever, and why the vision for an Internet of Value will be achieved.

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

More good news for $RLUSD this week - @moodysratings has assigned RLUSD an A2 long-term rating and P-1 short-term rating, the highest possible short-term rating under its new stablecoin framework.  TL;DR: RLUSD is the first stablecoin to have ever received an investment-grade Moody’s rating. This is one of the most respected independent credit rating agencies in the world, and a massive validation of the quality, transparency and institutional-grade infrastructure behind RLUSD.  Moody’s assessed everything from the credit quality and liquidity of @Ripple’s reserves to redemption arrangements, custody relationships, regulatory oversight, and operational controls in their rigorous methodology.  As RLUSD continues to grow, this kind of independent validation matters more than ever. Moody’s has helped set the standard for assessing credit quality and risk across traditional finance for decades, and bringing that same level of assessment to stablecoins themselves is a major step forward for the industry. Proud to see RLUSD helping set a new benchmark for institutional trust in stablecoins. ratings.moodys.com/ratings-n…

Ripple USD, meet Coinbase. RLUSD is now supported on Coinbase and Coinbase Prime, with 1:1 conversion from USD. More ways to move dollars onchain, inside the infrastructure institutions already use.

We’re kicking off 10 years of @RippleSwell with a bang! 1/ Goes without saying, but it was an honor to open up our conference with @SecScottBessent. His leadership, alongside the current administration, has been instrumental in ensuring that responsible crypto can thrive in the US. I’m extremely grateful he spent time with us today. 2/ BIG partner news 🚨 we're bringing Ripple’s infrastructure to @RobinhoodApp (supporting both customer-facing services and core financial operations), from $RLUSD settlement on the @XRP Ledger to prime brokerage and treasury operations & expanding our relationship with @BNYglobal across custody and tokenized trade finance with RLUSD, XRP and the XRP Ledger. 3/ We are bringing digital assets to corporates 👀 → Ripple Treasury introduced 24/7 Returns designed to help corporates put idle cash to work outside banking hours utilizing stablecoins (this is one step further to realizing the vision of our Treasury management business). 4/ Last but certainly not least, @USOCC granted final approval for Ripple National Trust Bank! And it’s only day 0 (technically the Swell main event starts tomorrow!). More to come this week…

Final OCC approval for Ripple National Trust Bank is the result of a simple choice we made years ago: build within the regulatory perimeter, not around it. Clear rules + rigorous oversight create trust. And trust is what allows new financial infrastructure to scale.
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.
