- Published
Ripple has outlined plans to move payment volume onto the XRP Ledger in 2027 and to expand a payments pilot that uses the ledger’s decentralized exchange. The plan also links Ripple’s payments business with lending that is being developed on the network, and one piece says XRP could end up in lending pools that fund payment customers.
Key claims & sources
✓
XRP could end up in lending pools that fund payment customers.
✓
Ripple plans to move payment volume onto the XRP Ledger in 2027.
✓
Ripple also wants to expand a payments pilot that uses the ledger’s decentralized exchange.
What it means
Payment customers and users of the XRP Ledger are the main group affected by these plans because the network is being tied more directly to Ripple’s payments business. That matters tomorrow morning in the sense that payment flows and pilot activity are being described in public terms, not just as a distant roadmap item.
