RippleX has announced the full lineup for XRP Community Day Tokyo 2024, an eagerly awaited event for the XRP community, blockchain enthusiasts, and industry leaders. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and President Monica Long will take center stage to discuss Ripple’s journey and the development of the XRP Ledger, which has attracted significant interest within the crypto community.
Collaboration with Archax and New Developments
In June, Ripple and Archax extended their partnership, aiming to bring hundreds of millions of dollars in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) to the XRP Ledger over the next year. Ripple also plans to enhance XRP Ledger’s capabilities by introducing Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility through the XRPL EVM Sidechain. This upgrade will boost interoperability and create new opportunities in decentralized finance (DeFi) and tokenized RWAs.
