What is XRP (Ripple)?

XRP (XRP) is the native utility token of the XRP Ledger platform. XRP Ledger is an open sourced distributed ledger operated and run by Ripple. XRP Ledger achieves consensus via validator nodes that collect a set of all candidate transactions and comes to an agreement, this allows the ledger to reach consus each 3-5 seconds.

  • One of XRP’s major aims is to resolve problems faced by traditional payment methods, specifically, sluggish transaction times and scalability. XRP transactions can settle in 3-5 seconds, as well as the technical stability of handling 1,500 transactions per second.
  • XRP is also extremely reliable, having 56 million + ledgers being closed since 2012 while also being much more eco-friendly. XRP does not run on the Proof of Work consensus mechanism.
  • XRP intends to become a digital currency that can be used for payment. Anyone with an internet connection can hold and send XRP anywhere else. This makes XRP a great bridge currency allowing individuals to facilitate trades elsewhere.

Ripple and XRP are attempting to transform how money is sent around the world, something the XRP team believe is necessary as the globe's economy continues to evolve and grow. XRP’s vision is to bring about the ‘Internet of Value’ so the world can move value the same way it moves information.
