Shill your XRP and XRPL projects here in this thread. It is also fine to shill non-XRP(L) crypto projects or even non-crypto projects. Share what you're interested in. Here's the place for it.
Replying to @JoelKatz
Obviously not here to insult or condemn, and that is not acceptable, but how do we bring a new project to your attention? Being one of the fathers of the XRPL it’s natural people will be excited to tell you what they are developing. Maybe a post once a week to invite those new to the ecosystem to say hello? 👋👋👋👋

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.

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. ripple.com/ripple-press/aviv…

the worst cyber attack in a decade is happening right now. here's how you can make sure you're not a victim. what's going on? an AI model just uncovered a 10 year old vulnerability in PHP, which powers 70% of websites. hackers are using it to take over servers without needing a password. here's how you can stay safe: - enable 2FA on all your accounts immediately (so even if a site gets hacked, your account stays safe) - be highly suspicious of sudden pop-ups asking for your credit card details - beware of websites asking you to install "security updates"

Custody is no longer just a vault. It’s the operating layer beneath digital finance. In the latest @BCG report, more than 20 financial institution leaders share how they are making that shift: identifying the value beyond safekeeping, then choosing the custody model and provider that help them capture it. The next phase of digital asset custody is accelerating: on.ripple.com/4z9rSq0 How will you prepare for what's next?

1/ Today Ripple filed its comment letter on the SEC’s proposed Regulation Crypto Assets. We support the proposal, and the SEC has clear authority to adopt it. 2/ Years of “case by case, coin by coin” enforcement has pushed innovation offshore. We need holistic rules for digital assets. 3/ The proposal stays faithful to Howey. The investment contract is the security, not the token. What matters is what an issuer actually promised and when those promises end, not a subjective “decentralization” test. 4/ We know the cost of ambiguity firsthand. Ripple spent more than $150 million to get clarity. No company should have to do that to learn what the law requires. 5/ Clear rules grounded in existing law will bring capital, investor protection and innovation to the U.S. Read our full letter: ripple.com/reports/ripple-co…

1/ We're partnering with @Ripple to bring Privy wallets to the XRP Ledger (XRPL). This makes it easier for developers to build stablecoin payments, fintech applications, and agentic commerce on XRPL.
