More importantly, Schwartz highlighted what's coming next: tokenized securities, money market funds, stocks, repos, and loans. He also touched on how enterprise adoption creates a pathway to mass retail adoption and why DeFi on XRPL could finally replace TradFi.
How is $XRP's utility expanding?
In the episode of "$XRP in 1 Minute," Schwartz seeks to answer the question of how $XRP's utility is expanding in about 60 seconds.
Schwartz explained that Bitcoin got things started by providing a public blockchain that allowed people to hold and transfer Bitcoin. The $XRP Ledger followed soon after, providing both a native digital asset similar to Bitcoin as well as issued assets that could represent things like stablecoins or tokenized assets of any kind.
Today, enterprises are using the $XRP Ledger to provide tokenized real-world assets, Schwartz added. And in the near future, they will be offering everything from tokenized securities to money market funds, even things like tokenized stocks.
Schwartz believes that in the near future, features like tokenized repos and tokenized loans will emerge on the scene. This will follow as enterprises provide the features that will attract mass retail adoption where DeFi can truly deliver on its promise of replacing TradFi, providing the financial services that everyone needs.
$XRP marked its 14th anniversary this week. On June 2, 14 years ago, Arthur Britto committed the code that created the 100 billion $XRP (previously called XNS).
$XRP Ledger EVM Sidechain went live with Ripple USD ($RLUSD) stablecoin, a key part of $RLUSD's multichain expansion powered by Wormhole's NTT standard, enabling $RLUSD to move natively across chains.
