Uphold President Nancy Beaton highlighted rising interest in XRP driven by retail investors seeking passive income through new XRPL lending protocols and automated market maker features. Meanwhile, institutional demand grows due to XRP Ledger's support for tokenization of real-world assets and compliance tools, with $1.4 billion in tokenized assets added recently. The XLS-66 Lending Protocol aims to enable structured lending but awaits validator approval. These developments signal expanding use cases for XRP among both retail and institutional investors.
