What is Ripple (XRP)?
Unlike most cryptocurrencies that run on decentralized networks without a central authority, XRP is managed by Ripple, a company positioning itself as a modern replacement for the SWIFT banking system.
This platform is actively utilized by banks and other financial institutions.
XRP serves as the primary currency of the Ripple network and is integrated into Ripple’s open-source system, which is adopted by various financial organizations.
Rather than rivalling other cryptocurrencies, Ripple seeks to improve the traditional SWIFT infrastructure.
Additionally, XRP tokens are not created through mining. The total supply is capped at 100 billion XRP, with only a fraction circulating in the market at any given time.
