have I got a good one for you we're going to start with this clip from Chris Larson but we're also going to get into some more connections with Swift and xrp by Wrath of Conan also we have some really good information about startup founded by City Bank alumni to launch xrp back Securities here we go I have this information and so much more let's get into it guys if you like the value that I am providing you can hit like that will do me so good 3,000 likes in this video I'd appreciate the support also
if you keep coming back and you keep watching my videos and you're not subscribed thinking about hitting that subscribe button turning that Bell notification on I promise to keep it real and get you the information as quickly as humanly possible so you can make the best decisions out here in the crypto space let's go and start with this so Ripple is the internet of value and xrp is the standard Chris Larson has spent over a decade sharing his vision of the internet of value with others never forgetting to emphasize that xrp is the asset of
choice especially when compared to the other largest crypto assets like Bitcoin Litecoin which is isn't Litecoin like a a fork of Bitcoin ethereum and oh bch Bitcoin cash I don't know let's keep playing this a little bit then about how we see these and why we're betting as you may have guessed on The xrp Ledger and xrp is the digital asset of choice when we're talking about the blockchain component of this internet of value xrp clearly has among the majors the lowest transaction costs it is the fastest about 3 seconds to settle and it has
the highest throughput of of the major blockchains now again throughput important to I think realize that look most of transactions eventually are going to be off Ledger in some fashion you're going to be using payment channels xrp payment channels lightning Network whatever it is however the throughput is still very important because at some point someone's got to settle to The Ledger right so the the more throughput the lower cost the more efficient it's going to be and equally is important You' got to have this predictability of settlement so xrp is not just the fastest of
the majors but it's actually very consistent about 3 seconds and the variability there is very low as compared with ether Bitcoin for example which is going to have longer close periods but importantly also much larger variability in its close so that that Randomness is problematic for payments and payment providers the other key thing is that the blockchain will have to be deterministic it can't be changed right and not probabilistic Bitcoin is a probabilistic blockchain so that's going to be important for payment providers as well energy consumption this is actually very important so I think as
we know Bitcoin uses a lot of energy so it is ether today until it switches to proof of stake so we're looking you know Bitcoin I know different VAR estimates here but using about as much as the energy of the Czech Republic today ether about as much as the country of Jordan the xrp Ledger because it's using a consensus system using a DI Minimus amount of electricity I think here with the example it uses as much as the town of Oatman if anybody's from here you get to a special prize o Arizona population 140 so
a dious amount of electricity obviously that's better for the the world right you're you're not polluting as much but very importantly that means that you're not wasting your seniorage on you know for utility companies and and for mining you it can instead go into the ecosystem which hopefully is liquidity at the end of the day I think liquidity is really what drives value here so that's that's an important feature there liquidity drives value that's a really important point that he says that's the more value liquidity that comes on chain the higher the price baby and
the more that we can make marketing director of Ando praising Ripple and xrp on the Ando integration let me go ahead and check this out here top story token relations Ando and ripple xrp that's token relations I saw this I saw this and I was like who the who's token relations but there you go all laid out excited to share now that we're working with ripple we're expanding coverage to include Ripple xrp xrpl llusd and more bringing its Community to the best updates metrics and insights all in one place every month zero doubts Ripple RL
USD Ando Black Rock Franklin Templeton securitize bny price Waterhouse Cooper the institutional standard for cash management you can get oh this is actually dropped so people have been doing this when we first when I first reported on this it was 4.16% if you remember I remember pretty well and so the the reason this has dropped is people are putting money into this right as more value comes into it the the rates will get lower so this is really great to see right securitized has connections all over the place also I believe the incoming Paul Atkins
was on the board of securitized and man things are looking really really good for ripple and xrp epic moment Wall Street 2.0 unveiled we're defining a moment in global Finance let's listen to this we're at a defining Moment In global Finance the convergence of traditional financial services and blockchain Technology holds the potential a fundamental upgrade to our financial system one that will make markets more transparent more efficient and more accessible for everyone while many of you in this room and those joining virtually have been working towards this vision for years we believe now is the
time to begin working more closely together to make this Vision a reality all right love to hear that and then look at for wrath economan great account to follow if you're not following wrath economan please do doesn't follow me I'm not cool enough all good so it says is Swift integrating xrp through eastnets some Buzz floating around worth unpacking says I don't think so but the good news is here okay so let's let's take a look here East Nets is a swift certified Service Bureau that facilitates access to Swift's Global messaging Network they a licensed
third party like a centure or ACI worldwide that Pro provides infrastructure for for financial institutions enture and ACI worldwide are both Ripple Partners ACI worldwide I mean I've looked at some stuff how much value does ACI worldwide move per day I saw something from aci's website saying that they move like $4 trillion dollar in payments every single day 14 trillion okay that's a that's a good number I like it all right let's keep going cbs's like eastnets manage technical connectivity protocols and compliance for institutions they help organizations meet Swift C P standards to adopt ISO
222 messaging formats to use the network they translate message formats to here is East Net's Swift application and it says recent crypto articles suggest that East Net's payment safe platform can facilitate xrp data processing within Swift framework most aren't very precise they aren't too helpful and I think it's based on the following I believe that smoke dog first posted this in a video on EET rep talking about payment safe it's a great find a connection there with bar Barco Toyama makes a good comparison to how Volante and finastra also Ripple partners connect Ripple to larger
systems right and so here is the tweet that he's pointing out and here's the video that we've shown on this this Channel and notice the diagram in the video Ripple is indicated not xrp also Swift and ripple are parallel like a not P2P exactly it looks like the diagrams found here for valante and finastra we'll go ahead and take a look here you have Swift up here Target 2 you have chaps fed wire fed now and then of course Ripple is connected into this and then he goes on to say and it and it's still
good news I think it's glad to see there's a demand to carry Ripple messaging in the UAE and with it perhaps xrp data for institutions using Swift similar to other csbs but not direct not direct Swift xrp or integration exists quite yet so that's good to know this is not former xrp integration this Swifts core services like GPI by Swifts it's a third party service connecting to Ripple and FY I don't know what that stands for let me know down in the comments I haven't been able to pin down exactly when EET started supporting Ripple
but the pr says that they've been working since 2017 so rra aonan thank you so much for pointing all of that out I do appreciate you brother credentials are coming to The xrp Ledger this new feature enable secure lightweight identity verification helping institutions meet kyc and AML compliance without sacrificing privacy or decentralization remember guys this these two things are like one of the two things or one of many things that Banks need to have when they are sending money bank to bank okay kyc is know your customer aml's anti-money laundering they also have like terrorist
financing checks all kinds of things right they have to make sure you're not a sanctioned bank because if a bank sends money to a bank that's under sanctions that could be jail time and heavy penalties so having all of this built into Ripple's technology that is why Banks like it so much and it's a startup founded by City alumni to launch xrp back Securities this could be juicy okay so let's see what this says a startup founded by oh here let's just read the article let's read the article okay receipts depository Corp a startup founded
by a group of former city group Executives is planning to launch xrp back Securities according to people familiar with the matter this will give institutions access to xrp Securities through regulated market infrastructure yes the company will offer depository receipts similar to the American depository receipts that represent foreign stocks and US Equity exchanges this product will be offered to qualified institutional buyers only via transactions exempt from registration under Securities act 1933 as such uh does not need approval from the exteri and Exchange Commission Fox Business reported this early news on Friday the Securities will be cleared
by the depository Trust TR company DTC depository trust comp interesting similar to rd's already existing offerings in Bitcoin ethereum back Securities in a press release January 2024 RDC founder and CEO an anit Meta Meta said that he's using depository sheets and brings many benefits such as their their tried and true structure providing direct ownership of the underlying asset and easy inclusion for institutional products several companies have already taken steps to bring xrp to the institutional crowd and the native cryptocurrency of the Ripple network has seen tremendous growth over the past year several asset managers and
exchange traded fund providers have already applied for ETFs tracking the price of xrp the price difference between an ETF and a depository receipt is while shares in potential xrp ETF would be redeemed for cash depository receipts would be direct ownership of the cryptocurrency I like it I like it and this is talking there's a few things here right RL USD USD usdc is coming to Japan largest banks SBI SBI group's digital space ecosystem SBC is also planning to handle stable coins the stable coin issue are listed as Ripple and circle here you go right in
the middle here SBI groups holds about .9% share based on the actual Holdings and as the largest external shareholder in Ripple in the US company that develops International remittance technology utilizing the crypto asset XR P collabor collaboration is established JV International remittance utilizing and it also says based on the information available for The xrp Ledger as of February 2nd 2025 nearly 40% of the total supply of xrp is in escrow and ripple is free is is not free to sell them off xrp circulating surprise is about 57 billion that is good to know lot of
good information there ladies and gentlemen we did talk about that already Ripple is one of the five most important and essential message types next to Swift ISO 222 sepa Target realtime girl settlement and at eastnets thirdparty Partnerships like eastnets and ripple are the key to enabling xrp to move across the Swift Network we just did talk about that anyways third party provider Swift Ripple enable eastnets and ACI worldwide so people are making more connections to eastnets and ACI I mean guys at the end of the day if you don't think Ripple is connected to the
most biggest payment infrastructures around the world you just haven't done enough research right and it doesn't necessarily mean that every single payment will be used and and go through xrp or RL USD but if people have the option to choose to use crypto to move that value instantaneously for much cheaper than the Swift system what do you think they're going to do I mean I don't know I think this is like when we move from like house phones to cell phones a lot of people are like no I'm never going to get a cell phone
now everybody has a cell phone and nobody has a house phone is that going to be the same thing with the banking system like cassettes CDs now you have like Spotify right or YouTube you watch music on YouTube I do it it times are changing and with the change so does technology and the quicker that we can understand the technology that is going to be used on a global basis to move value instantaneously to tokenize value and bring it on The Ledger that is the technology that I am most interested in and that is why
I talk about xrp on this channel at all times taking your crypto Journey To The Next Step you can think about joining my community called Crypton we've been around since April 2021 we have a lot of people in there hundreds of people all looking for the next Edge in crypto new projects defi agent AIS dii utility we really talk about it all if you trade meme coins we have a big channel for that too uh I hope to see you around the community you can use bullrun as a code to get you 50% off the
