Ripple Key Facts
• Ripple has been able to secure partnerships with more than 300 financial institutions worldwide, including big names such as American Express and Santander. This demonstrates the growing acceptance of Ripple’s blockchain technology as a viable option for cross-border payments. Furthermore, Ripple’s partnerships with banks could be a stepping-stone for the wider adoption of cryptocurrencies by traditional financial institutions.
• Ripple's main business focus on cross-border payments makes it an attractive option for businesses and individuals looking for a faster and more efficient way to transfer funds across borders. Ripple’s blockchain technology offers near-instant transaction speeds and lower transaction fees compared to traditional cross-border payment systems. Moreover, the technology also has great scalability, being able to process 1,500 transactions per second. To prove this, in 2018 the founder of TechCrunch, Michael Arrington, reportedly sent $50m (£39m, €43m) in XRP and it “took like two seconds and it cost 30 cents”.
• Ripple has an experienced leadership team, with CEO Brad Garlinghouse being a prominent figure in the cryptocurrency space. The team has a clear vision for the company and has been successful in executing its plans, such as the recent launch of its on-demand liquidity service in Japan.
• The SEC and Ripple agreed to a $50 million settlement, significantly less than the initial $125 million penalty and far below the $2 billion the SEC had originally sought. The settlement effectively brings the four-year lawsuit to a close. If Ripple, is involved in future litigation it may affect Ripple’s long-term viability.
• Another concern is the growing competition in the cross-border payments space. Other blockchain-based companies, such as Stellar and Swift, are also working on improving cross-border payment systems. Additionally, traditional financial institutions are investing in their own blockchain-based solutions, which could pose a threat to Ripple’s market share.
• Ripple’s dependence on XRP as its primary revenue source is a cause for concern. The majority of Ripple’s revenue comes from selling XRP, and if XRP’s value were to decline significantly, Ripple’s revenue stream would be negatively impacted. This makes Ripple’s financials more volatile than those of other blockchain-based companies that have diversified revenue streams.

How to invest in stock?
Accredited investors can buy pre-IPO stock in companies through EquityZen funds. These investments are made available by existing shareholders who sell their shares on our platform. Typically, these are early employees who need to fund a life event – house, education, etc. Accredited investors are then offered the opportunity to invest in this stock through a fund, like those used by hedge funds serving large investors. While not without risk, investing in private companies can help investors reach goals of portfolio diversification, access to potential growth and high potential return.
