Ripple XRP

On 2024-12-21 the current Ripple price/exchange rate is 2.1611 EUR.

Ripple is a blockchain-based technology envisioned as a real-time protocol for the transfer of value.

Ripple was created to become a faster and cheaper alternative to existing payment platforms such as SWIFT and other forms of digital payments. 

Ripple operates on an “open-source” decentralized network, and this network makes money transfers easier, whether you are transferring dollars, euros, pounds, or cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Litecoin, etc.

It is necessary to understand the difference between the terms XRP, Ripple, and RippleNet.

XRP is a digital currency that operates on a digital payment platform within the RippleNet network. 

RippleNet is a network consisting of payment service providers (such as banks and similar financial institutions) that use solutions developed by Ripple. 

All transactions are stored in the XRP Ledger, or "open-source" public book that allows everyone to view all transactions in real time. 

These transactions are secured and verified by network participants through a consensus mechanism.

At the moment of writing this text, there are around 46 billion XRP coins in circulation. 

The total amount of XRP tokens that can be in circulation is 100 billion. 

Interestingly, all 100 billion XRP tokens already exist but not all tokens have been released into circulation. 

About 50 billion XRP tokens are stored in a cryptographically secured "escrow" account, which makes it easier to track XRP reserves.

This is the way of proving mathematically how many XRP coins are released into circulation.

Fast transaction processing - transactions take up to 5 seconds to complete. 

On the other hand, banking transactions can take minutes or even hours.

Low fees - the cost of a successful transaction in the Ripple network is only 0.0001 XRP.

Ripple is a versatile exchange network. In addition to processing transactions via XRP, it can also be used for other fiat and cryptocurrencies.

Many financial institutions already use Ripple as a transaction platform. 

The more financial institutions start implementing the Ripple network, the value of the XRP token will increase.

The total amount of XRP tokens that can be in circulation is 100 billion. 

All 100 billion XRP coins have already been minted, which is why XRP can’t be mined. 

About 50 billion XRP coins have not been released into circulation. 

The new XRP tokens are gradually being released into circulation. 

The reason for this is to prevent XRP coins from flooding the market and consequently crashing their price.

Instead of mining, you can get XRP coins by exchanging them for another fiat or cryptocurrency. 

You can also find XRP in the Bitcoin Store offer.

The idea for Ripple first appeared in 2004 when Ryan Fugger launched the Ripple pay system. 

The real beginning of Ripple can be considered when Chris Larsen and Jed McCaleb took over the project in 2013.
