XRP/USD LONG SET UP (HODL )WE GOING TO THE MOON!(FULL BREAKDOWN)TECHNICAL ANALYSIS- FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS- NEWS- SIGNAL- FIB LEVELS- PRICE ACTION
XRPL Labs - the innovative Ripple-backed startup has recently announced the development of a revolutionary new banking app based on the XRP Ledger called Xign. The news was announced at the recent Bitrue event in Amsterdam that took place at the end of May.Xign is a mobile app that acts as a banking app without the use of banks. It allows users to check balances and transfer dollars, euros, XRP and other cryptocurrencies.
According to the founder of nodum. io and one of the lead developers at XRPL Wietse Wind, the new app is very easy to use so that even people who aren’t familiar with crypto wallets or digital ledgers will get used to it without any worries.
At the conference, Wind said that the mobile app is very easy to use and has stated that it delivers a user experience similar to traditional online banking i.e simple.
The app comes with an easy-to-use setup guide that enables users to take advantage of the app without any issues. On top of this, it will feature an account directory with look-up and social features to facilitate the non-technical transaction for its users.
The app will also be able to approve of deny payments to different individuals and firms.
Win has made it clear that XRP will be the app’s native asset. Other servies will be added later like a prepaid ILP Wallet.
QUOTED “So, what it will allow you to do is check your balance and send your funds in any currency, because the XRP Ledger can handle any given currency issued on the ledger… We’re not building a crypto wallet. We’re building a banking app. Except, without a bank. We’re building a banking app based on a digital ledger, based on the XRP Ledger and based on ILP (Interledger Protocol).”
A new poll reveals interesting XRP facts
The Daily Hodl online publication spotted a new Twitter poll that’s been conducted by pseudonymous Ripple and crypto enthusiast XRP_Cro, and this reveals that most of XRP investors believe the coin will surge above $100.
“A new poll that targets the XRP community and involves over 1,000 participants shows that 43% say they plan to partially or fully sell their XRP holdings around $100. 39% say they look to sell between $10 – $50, while the remaining 18% claim that they’ll unload between $3 – $10,” according to the notes.
As the Daily Hodl continues and reveals, “On the question of which crypto asset they think will give the biggest return on investment (ROI) in the next bull cycle, 77.9% chose XRP, while 15.7% placed their bets on supply chain management protocol VeChain (VET). Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) garnered 2.9% and 3.5% of the votes, respectively.”
Participants have also been asked which digital assets they are holding besides XRP – 65% of the respondents picked VeChain (VET), while 27% chose Cardano (ADA), 14% favored Stellar (XLM), and only 4.1% selected Ethereum.

The market point between XRP and the US dollar yet continues trade around the same range trading territory of $0.20 mark as kept quite a while. Neither the base nor the counter has been able to make a significant move away from the range line.
All in all, XRP/USD buyers have been struggling to not to let down the crypto’s valuation goes below the previous low of $0.18 point. Meanwhile, bears have continued to press down the crypto’s price from a line a bit over the range trading area.
At the conference, Wind said that the mobile app is very easy to use and has stated that it delivers a user experience similar to traditional online banking i.e simple.
In this 2 Week chart of Ripple / United States dollar (XRP/ USD), there is a depreciating range from 0.5175 to 0.1105.
We can observe that the market then appreciated to the 0.206 level (identified by the yellow down arrow), just below the 23.6% retracement of the depreciating range at the 0.206552 level.
We can observe that XRP/USD then depreciated to the 0.1791 level, just below the 9-week Simple Moving Average .
We can also observe that the 0.1791 level was just below the 0.183462 level, representing the 23.6% retracement of the appreciating range from 0.1105 to 0.206.
If XRP/USD resumes its depreciation, price retracement levels below the current market include the 0.169519 ( 38.2% retracement ), 0.15825 ( 50% retracement ), 0.146891 ( 61.8% retracement ), and 0.130937 ( 78.6% retracement ) levels.
If XRP/USD resumes its appreciation, price retracement levels above the current market include the 0.265974 ( 38.2% retracement ), 0.314 ( 50% retracement ), 0.362026 ( 61.8% retracement ), and 0.430402 ( 78.6% retracement ) levels.

Ripple’s XRP slid by 5.21% in the week ending 18th October. Reversing a 3.07% gain from the previous week, Ripple’s XRP ended the week at $0.24216.
It was a mixed start to the week. Ripple’s XRP rose to a Tuesday intraweek high $0.25998 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $0.2638, Ripple’s XRP slid to a Friday intraweek low $0.23783 and into the deep red.
Ripple’s XRP fell through the first major support level at $0.2438 before finding support through the weekend.
In spite of 2 consecutive days in the green, however, Ripple’s XRP failed to break back through the first major support level.
3-days in the red that included a 2.89% slide on Tuesday and a 2.36% fall on Friday delivered the downside for the week.
For the week ahead
Ripple’s XRP would need to move through the $0.2467 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.2555.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break back through to $0.2550 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and last week’s high $0.25998 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a breakout, Ripple’s XRP could test resistance at $0.26 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $0.2688.
Failure to move through the $0.2467 would bring the first major support level at $0.2333 into play.
Barring an extended crypto market sell-off, however, Ripple’s XRP should steer clear well clear of sub-$0.23 levels. The second major support level sits at $0.2245.
At the time of writing, Ripple’s XRP was down by 0.01% to $0.24214. A mixed start to the week saw Ripple’s XRP rise to an early Monday morning high $0.24281 before falling to a low $0.24203.
Ripple’s XRP left the major support and resistance levels untested at the start of the week.

XRP and its role in the growing blockchain adoption
Another key point revealed by the Ripple report is the diversification in use cases by companies using blockchain technology. 98% of participants using a blockchain have deployed technology for supply chain management (62%), commerce, and finance (51%). So it’s not surprising that 99% of participants said their company could use a digital asset such as XRP to process payments or as a medium of exchange. In contrast to the 2018 results, this figure has grown by 94%.
Among the strengths that participants said blockchain technology has, the speed to make cross-border transactions received 40% of the responses. In this aspect, the digital asset XRP and its instantaneous transfers with Ripple’s On-Demand Liquidity solution offer the most important benefit for respondent companies. Along with cost (32%) and reliability (27%), as shown below.Among the obstacles to blockchain adoption, participants mentioned a lack of regulatory clarity, the amount of investment required to implement the technology, and security. However, the results show that digital assets such as XRP are increasingly becoming an important part of the development of the blockchain industry. The report concludes:
Emerging markets are leading the charge, recognizing that responsible usage of blockchain and digital assets can unleash tremendous potential for their economy. Without a doubt, both will drive greater financial inclusion and economic growth not unlike the Internet’s impact. Mature markets stand to benefit as well
XRP NATION (HODL) BULL RUN ONCE WE BREAK $0.34XRP suffered a smaller 4% price drop this week as it falls into the $0.286 support, provided by a .236 Fib Retracement. XRP started the week above $0.3 as it pushed above a shallow falling price channel. It managed to spike as high as $0.331 before the sellers stepped in and sold XRP lower.
On Tuesday, XRP penetrated beneath $0.3 as it fell back into the previous falling price channel. The coin continued to drop over the following days until reaching support at $0.286 (.236 Fib Retracement).
If the bulls can regroup at $0.286 and push higher, the first level of resistance lies at $0.3. Following this, resistance lies at $0.313 (1.414 Fib ExtensioN), $0.321 (bearish .886 Fib Retracement), and $0.331 (1.618 Fib Extension).
Against Bitcoin, XRP headed lower this week as it reached the 2435 SAT support (.382 Fib Retracement). The coin had attempted to push higher as it spiked toward 2700 SAT. However, the bears did not allow it to close a daily candle above 2560 SAT this week.
After rolling over from 2560 SAT, XRP headed lower and eventually broke beneath the 100-days EMA to reach the current 2435 SAT support (.382 Fib Retracement).
If the sellers push beneath the 2435 SAT, the first level of support lies at 2400 SAT. This is followed by support at 2333 SAT (.5 Fib Retracement & 200-days EMA), 2230 SAT (.618 Fib Retracement), and 2100 SAT.
Alternatively, if the sellers break beneath $0.286, the first level of support lies at $0.28. This is followed by support at the lower boundary of the channel, $0.264 (.382 Fib Retracement), and $0.25.
The weak rebound off the 20-day EMA ($0.285) on Aug. 20 suggests a lack of buyers at higher levels. If the bears can now sink XRP below the 20-day EMA, a drop to $0.268478 is possible.
The 20-day EMA has flattened out and the RSI has dropped close to the midpoint, which suggests a range-bound action in the short-term. A strong bounce off the $0.268478 support will signal strength and the bulls will try to push the price back to $0.326113.
Contrary to this assumption, if the bears sink the XRP/USD pair below $0.268478, a deeper correction to the 50-day SMA ($0.243) is likely.
With the launch of the latest Ripple gateway, gold just got a lot more useful. Gold Bullion International (GBI), one of the world’s leading precious metals providers, now enables people to trade digital units of physical gold, send it to friends and family, or even spend it online.
-Ripple publishes the quarterly XRP Markets Report to voluntarily provide transparency and regular updates on the company’s views on the state of the XRP market, including quarterly programmatic and institutional sales updates, relevant XRP-related announcements, such as Xpring and RippleNet partnerships, and commentary on previous quarter market developments. As an XRP holder, Ripple believes proactive communication and transparency are part of being a responsible stakeholder. Moreover, Ripple urges others in the industry to follow its lead to build trust, foster open communication and raise the bar, industry-wide.Disciplined, Responsible Stakeholders: Continued Pause in XRP Programmatic SalesIn Q2 2020, total XRP sales were $32.55 million (USD) vs. $1.75 million the previous quarter. Ripple continued the pause of programmatic sales, focusing solely on its over-the-counter (OTC) sales as part of providing increased XRP liquidity to RippleNet’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) customers. This added liquidity is vital as ODL continues to evolve and expand into new corridors. A healthy, orderly XRP market is required to minimize cost and risk for customers, and Ripple plays a responsible role in the liquidity process. As more financial institutions leverage RippleNet’s ODL service, more liquidity is added into the XRP market. That said, Ripple has been a buyer in the secondary market and may continue to undertake purchases in the future at market prices.Total sales (OTC-only, given programmatic pause) ended the quarter at 18 bps of CryptoCompare TopTier volumes. This is compared to total sales in the previous quarter (OTC-only, given programmatic pause) of 0.60 bps of CryptoCompare TopTier.
-Volatility
XRP’s standard deviation of daily returns over Q2 was 3.0%, representing a decrease in volatility from Q1’s 6.2%. XRP’s volatility over the quarter was lower than that of bitcoin (3.4%), and lower than that of Ethereum (4.2%).
Escrow
In Q2 2020, three billion XRP were released out of escrow (one billion each month). In total across the quarter, 2.6 billion XRP were returned and subsequently put into new escrow contracts. For more information on the escrow process
On-Demand Liquidity (ODL)
More than ever, financial institutions are seeing the value of RippleNet’s ODL service to provide instant, global payments and meet market demand, especially during times of crisis due to the exposed risk and increased volatility. In Q2 2020, ODL accounted for nearly 20% of RippleNet volume. Comparing just H1 2019 with H1 2020, RippleNet experienced 11x year-over-year growth in ODL transaction volume.

As for overall liquidity and volume, XRP ended the quarter as the fifth most traded digital asset as measured by rolling 30D volume. XRP volume remained relatively strong as overall digital asset volume saw a dip in the second quarter of 2020. The XRP Ledger saw over 85 million in total transactions and XRP’s adjusted transfer value (NVT) ratio was 200.512—the highest among all digital assets in Q2. The NVT ratio compares market cap to on-chain transactional usage, making it a good determination of an asset’s utility. XRPL also saw $20,138 in total transaction fees over the ledger—the lowest among all digital assets in Q2.
Early on, Ripple identified remittances as its primary use case, and will continue to focus on supporting low-value, high-frequency payments with ODL.
-Gold has served monetary and symbolic functions since before the beginning of recorded history. Today, individuals, institutional investors, and central banks continue to maintain strategic holdings in the highly sought-after precious metal. In all, the total market for gold is worth over $8 trillion.
The yellow element Au has stayed in vogue because of its physical properties. Beyond being yellow like the sun, it’s malleable, fungible, and moderately rare. But these same physical properties can also make it unwieldy to manage in the context of the modern world. By integrating with the Ripple protocol, GBI combines the historic qualities of gold with the capabilities of digital currency.
“Ripple changes the dynamics of value, allowing for a real-time market that can instantly trade between gold, currency, mobile minutes, and more,” said Steven Feldman, co-founder and CEO of GBI. “We have been leaders in combining technology and precious metals, and our integration into Ripple allows us to continue our push into digital currencies by enabling investors to now buy digital physical gold.”
This means that anyone holding bitcoin can purchase gold on the Ripple network in the form of XAU balances issued by GBI. These balances are backed by physical gold deposited in secure vaults around the world in cities like New York, London, and Zurich. The firm has over $1 billion in completed transactions, providing services to a broad range of institutional customers including Merrill Lynch.
Not only can users easily send gold to friends and family, anyone can redeem their XAU balances for physical gold delivery at any time.
And thanks to the flexibility of the Ripple protocol, which seamlessly manages all necessary currency conversions behind the scenes, holders of XAU can spend their gold wherever Bitcoin is accepted, such as Overstock, Expedia, and most recently, Dell

Ripple’s Director of Product Launches XRP Payments and E-Commerce Platform
Ripple’s director of product is rolling out the beta version of Payburner, an XRP-based e-commerce payment platform.
In a new Twitter thread, Craig DeWitt, says Payburner is designed to make it extremely easy to send and receive instant global payments. The new product, which started as DeWitt’s side project, functions as a non-custodial wallet. DeWitt says the responsibility of safely storing the funds falls on the users as Payburner won’t have access to their passwords.

Standing on the doorstep of a new year and a new decade, it is hard to believe that the first real public engagement with digital assets began only a few short years ago in 2017. Over that year and into the next, speculators and media coverage drove wild fluctuations in interest and price—contributing to a series of both spectacular rises and precipitous falls in each.
But that digital asset roller coaster ride smoothed out over the course of 2019 as speculation subsided and specialized use cases began to emerge. That utility helped demonstrate value in digital assets beyond trading and contributed to increased stability.
While skeptics and critics might still view digital assets as a giant game of Jenga, just waiting for a wrong move to send all the blocks tumbling down, we here at Ripple see the future of digital assets as more like a vast set of Legos. By carefully piecing them together, it’s possible to reimagine familiar worlds or create entirely new ones.
Looking ahead, we believe 2020 will reveal new technologies and applications for digital assets that can lead to meaningful, tangible change across a wide range of industries. In particular, we expect three major themes to develop in this first year of the new decade that will lead to a more mainstream embrace of digital assets.
Digital Assets Underpin Consumer Financial Products
XRP is a digital asset custom-designed to facilitate cross-border payments. A number of companies, including MoneyGram and goLance, and applications have endorsed this use case and we anticipate even more will join the adoption curve over the coming year. But our team expects other digital assets and use cases to find traction in the coming year and decade.
Ripple SVP of Product Asheesh Birla predicts that mobile wallets will enter the blockchain and crypto industries in a big way. Specifically, he believes that “adoption of digital assets and blockchain technology among mobile wallets and super-apps like Gojek, Grab and PayPal will become more mainstream as they look to expand their services to keep up with customer demand and compete with digital banks.”
According to Asheesh, that adoption will continue expanding to include new credit and loan products. He expects that these more mainstream use cases will first emerge in developing markets like Kenya, Nigeria and parts of Latin America where the need is most acute. These applications will be aided by friendlier regulations towards digital assets, which will also make them more attractive to tech companies seeking paths to expansion.
Similarly, Ripple SVP of Customer Success Marcus Treacher sees international and micropayments expanding to facilitate new consumer uses. In particular, he envisions purchase solutions for tourists and travelers that no longer rely on cards or card rails taking root in 2020.
“Imagine if a Japanese tourist visiting Thailand could buy goods using a mobile app or QR code, triggering an immediate cross-border payment from their Japanese yen account to a Thai baht merchant’s account. If more consumer purchase solutions start leveraging blockchain technology in the same way, the payoff will—quite literally—be huge!”
Marcus also predicts that big tech companies will continue to enter the payment space, hastening the growth of micro and wallet payments supporting immediate, low-value payment flows. This expansion of micropayments beyond traditional messaging apps like Telegram and Line to deep pocketed enterprises should create a resulting surge of developers flocking to digital assets.
Institutional Adoption of Digital Assets Accelerates
For digital assets and associated applications to have long-term staying power, institutional players must embrace the technology. We anticipate that just such a wave of institutional adoption will begin in 2020 with more traditional firms deploying digital asset and blockchain-based solutions.
Breanne Madigan, our Head of Global Institutional Markets, says this will be enabled by trusted custody brands such as State Street or Bank of New York becoming involved in digital assets. “The presence of recognized players will increase institutional confidence in the space and pave the way for greater institutional adoption next year,” explains Breanne.
CEO Brad Garlinghouse is even bolder, predicting that half of the top 20 biggest banks in the world will actively hold and trade digital assets in 2020. He is also one of many on the team that believes fiat currencies will go digital in the next year.
While SVP of Xpring Ethan Beard expects at least one central bank to launch a tokenized representation of their fiat currency in 2020, Brad forecasts at least one non-G20 currency—like the Argentine peso or similar—will become fully digitized within the next year. Xpring SDK provides the ability to work with PayID, using libraries provided in JavaScript, Java, and Swift
The weak rebound off the support line of the symmetrical triangle indicates a lack of buyers at higher levels. Currently, the bears are attempting to sink XRP below the triangle. The downsloping 20-day EMA ($0.197) and the relative strength index in the negative territory suggests an advantage to the bears.

Breanne Madigan, our Head of Global Institutional Markets, says this will be enabled by trusted custody brands such as State Street or Bank of New York becoming involved in digital assets. “The presence of recognized players will increase institutional confidence in the space and pave the way for greater institutional adoption next year,” explains Breanne.
CEO Brad Garlinghouse is even bolder, predicting that half of the top 20 biggest banks in the world will actively hold and trade digital assets in 2020. He is also one of many on the team that believes fiat currencies will go digital in the next year.
While SVP of Xpring Ethan Beard expects at least one central bank to launch a tokenized representation of their fiat currency in 2020, Brad forecasts at least one non-G20 currency—like the Argentine peso or similar—will become fully digitized within the next year.

The weak rebound off the support line of the symmetrical triangle indicates a lack of buyers at higher levels. Currently, the bears are attempting to sink XRP below the triangle. The downsloping 20-day EMA ($0.197) and the relative strength index in the negative territory suggests an advantage to the bears.
XRPL Labs - the innovative Ripple-backed startup has recently announced the development of a revolutionary new banking app based on the XRP Ledger called Xign. The news was announced at the recent Bitrue event in Amsterdam that took place at the end of May.Xign is a mobile app that acts as a banking app without the use of banks. It allows users to check balances and transfer dollars, euros, XRP and other cryptocurrencies.
According to the founder of nodum. io and one of the lead developers at XRPL Wietse Wind, the new app is very easy to use so that even people who aren’t familiar with crypto wallets or digital ledgers will get used to it without any worries.
At the conference, Wind said that the mobile app is very easy to use and has stated that it delivers a user experience similar to traditional online banking i.e simple.
The app comes with an easy-to-use setup guide that enables users to take advantage of the app without any issues. On top of this, it will feature an account directory with look-up and social features to facilitate the non-technical transaction for its users.
The app will also be able to approve of deny payments to different individuals and firms.
Win has made it clear that XRP will be the app’s native asset. Other servies will be added later like a prepaid ILP Wallet.
QUOTED “So, what it will allow you to do is check your balance and send your funds in any currency, because the XRP Ledger can handle any given currency issued on the ledger… We’re not building a crypto wallet. We’re building a banking app. Except, without a bank. We’re building a banking app based on a digital ledger, based on the XRP Ledger and based on ILP (Interledger Protocol).”

Ripple’s Director of Product Launches XRP Payments and E-Commerce Platform
Ripple’s director of product is rolling out the beta version of Payburner, an XRP-based e-commerce payment platform.
In a new Twitter thread, Craig DeWitt, says Payburner is designed to make it extremely easy to send and receive instant global payments. The new product, which started as DeWitt’s side project, functions as a non-custodial wallet. DeWitt says the responsibility of safely storing the funds falls on the users as Payburner won’t have access to their passwords.

Standing on the doorstep of a new year and a new decade, it is hard to believe that the first real public engagement with digital assets began only a few short years ago in 2017. Over that year and into the next, speculators and media coverage drove wild fluctuations in interest and price—contributing to a series of both spectacular rises and precipitous falls in each.
But that digital asset roller coaster ride smoothed out over the course of 2019 as speculation subsided and specialized use cases began to emerge. That utility helped demonstrate value in digital assets beyond trading and contributed to increased stability.
While skeptics and critics might still view digital assets as a giant game of Jenga, just waiting for a wrong move to send all the blocks tumbling down, we here at Ripple see the future of digital assets as more like a vast set of Legos. By carefully piecing them together, it’s possible to reimagine familiar worlds or create entirely new ones.
Looking ahead, we believe 2020 will reveal new technologies and applications for digital assets that can lead to meaningful, tangible change across a wide range of industries. In particular, we expect three major themes to develop in this first year of the new decade that will lead to a more mainstream embrace of digital assets.
Digital Assets Underpin Consumer Financial Products
XRP is a digital asset custom-designed to facilitate cross-border payments. A number of companies, including MoneyGram and goLance, and applications have endorsed this use case and we anticipate even more will join the adoption curve over the coming year. But our team expects other digital assets and use cases to find traction in the coming year and decade.
Ripple SVP of Product Asheesh Birla predicts that mobile wallets will enter the blockchain and crypto industries in a big way. Specifically, he believes that “adoption of digital assets and blockchain technology among mobile wallets and super-apps like Gojek, Grab and PayPal will become more mainstream as they look to expand their services to keep up with customer demand and compete with digital banks.”
According to Asheesh, that adoption will continue expanding to include new credit and loan products. He expects that these more mainstream use cases will first emerge in developing markets like Kenya, Nigeria and parts of Latin America where the need is most acute. These applications will be aided by friendlier regulations towards digital assets, which will also make them more attractive to tech companies seeking paths to expansion.
Similarly, Ripple SVP of Customer Success Marcus Treacher sees international and micropayments expanding to facilitate new consumer uses. In particular, he envisions purchase solutions for tourists and travelers that no longer rely on cards or card rails taking root in 2020.
“Imagine if a Japanese tourist visiting Thailand could buy goods using a mobile app or QR code, triggering an immediate cross-border payment from their Japanese yen account to a Thai baht merchant’s account. If more consumer purchase solutions start leveraging blockchain technology in the same way, the payoff will—quite literally—be huge!”
Marcus also predicts that big tech companies will continue to enter the payment space, hastening the growth of micro and wallet payments supporting immediate, low-value payment flows. This expansion of micropayments beyond traditional messaging apps like Telegram and Line to deep pocketed enterprises should create a resulting surge of developers flocking to digital assets.
Institutional Adoption of Digital Assets Accelerates
For digital assets and associated applications to have long-term staying power, institutional players must embrace the technology. We anticipate that just such a wave of institutional adoption will begin in 2020 with more traditional firms deploying digital asset and blockchain-based solutions.

RippleNet
RippleNet is a decentralized global network of banks and payment providers using Ripple’s distributed financial technology, which provides real-time messaging, clearing,and settlement of financial transactions. Ripple connects banks, payment providers, digital asset exchanges and corporates via RippleNet to provide one frictionless experience to send money globally.
Key Ripple products that enable RippleNet members include:
xCurrent- Process Real-Time Payments
Ripple’s software, xCurrent, enables banks to differentiate themselves by offering new cross-border payments services while lowering their total cost of settlement. The solution is specifically designed to meet the needs of banks by fitting within their existing risk, compliance,and information security frameworks. Ripple’s software is installed within the bank’s infrastructure and is built to interface with the bank’s systems using an API interface or through a translation layer that can consume traditional payment message formats to compress the integration time frame into weeks.
xRapid- Source On-Demand Liquidity
xRapid lets payment providers and other financial institutions minimize liquidity costs while improving their customer experience. Because payments into emerging markets often require pre-funded local currency accounts around the world, liquidity costs are high. xRapid helps to lower the capital requirements for liquidity. xRapid uniquely uses a digital asset, XRP, to offer on-demand liquidity, which lowers costs while enabling real-time payments in emerging markets. Built for enterprise use, XRP offers banks and payment providers an efficient, scalable, reliable liquidity option to service cross-border payments.
xVia –Send Global Payments with a Single Integration
xVia is for corporations, payment providers,and banks that want to send payments across various networks using a standard interface. xVia's simple API requires no software installation and enables users to send payments globally with transparency into the payment status and with rich information, like invoices, attached.

Is XRP bullish?
Ripple (XRP) at Major Inflection Point And Candles Warn Bullish Reversal. Ripple is following a bullish path above the $0.2320 support zone against the US Dollar. XRP price is likely to accelerate higher above the $0.2400 and $0.2420 resistance levels.
Marcus Treacher announced in an interview that Ripple will open up new payment corridors in Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa.
Ripple aims to provide the payment solution On-Demand Liquidity to the local population to help them process cross-border transactions quickly and cost-effectively.
Marcus Treacher, Senior Vice President of Customer Success at Ripple, explained in a recent interview that despite the coronavirus, the company is planning to open up new payment corridors in Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Ripple will use the On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) payment service, formerly known as xRapid, to process cross-border payments quickly and cost-effectively.
Under ODL, XRP acts as a bridge currency between two Fiat currencies, eliminating the need for pre-financing through a nostro account. It also eliminates the risk of currency price fluctuations. As Treacher explained, the expansion of ODL is to be further advanced by the end of this year:
We have established On Demand Liquidity corridors into Mexico, the Philippines, Australia and Europe, and we’re hoping to further this expansion by opening corridors to APAC and EMEA this year.
Treacher stressed the need to support companies and individuals who are severely restricted by COVID19 and have no means of sending money home to their families without the inherent high fees and long transfer times. In response, Ripple has partnered with industry leaders to reduce or eliminate transaction fees during the pandemic:

Featured snippet from the web
PayID is a simple service that makes paying money into your account easier. You can create a PayID by choosing something easy to remember, like your phone number, and registering it with your bank. The next time you want someone to pay you, instead of sharing your BSB and account number, simply share your PayID.
In response, we’ve partnered with global financial institutions such as Azimo, TransferGo and Siam Commercial Bank to reduce or waive transaction fees during the pandemic.
Treacher continued to criticize the lack of initiative by major financial institutions to open up to the innovations of the blockchain market. Although not all projects are delivering promising results, Treacher said it was time for banks to move to the “next level of development” and offer customers modern services such as fast and cheap transfers worldwide.

He describes that the average transaction costs of $14 for a global transfer are disproportionately high for a $200 transfer, and that smart systems such as RippleNet bring far-reaching benefits for the banks’ customers:
Innovation could be at the forefront of product development, combining the established reach and influence of traditional banks with the industry-leading tech and new talent at the disposal of fintechs.
Ripple plans further expansion in Asia with SBI
Ripple Partner SBI announced a few days ago that a pilot project is currently underway and SBI is completely satisfied with the results. The XRP-based platform is scheduled to go live by the end of the year. According to the initial results, ODL is far superior to traditional bank transfers, so that the adaptation in Japan will progress rapidly thanks to the company’s large network.
