Ripple expands into leveraged ETF financing, challenging banks with $1.25B Hidden Road deal.

Ripple has entered the leveraged ETF financing market, traditionally dominated by banks, through its $1.25 billion acquisition of Hidden Road. Ripple Prime now offers total return swaps that allow funds to amplify daily stock moves, earning fees from financing these leveraged bets. This move taps into a fast-growing market with over $256 billion in assets under management but carries risks if sharp stock moves cause losses. Ripple's expansion signals its growing role in institutional finance beyond crypto, though it has not disclosed revenue details from this business yet.

Ripple's move into leveraged ETF financing provides context for cryptocurrency market trends. For readers following crypto assets, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 08, 2026 12:41 WIB: out of 50 major cryptocurrencies priced on Pluang, 13 rose and 36 fell today.
