Ripple has introduced Ripple Prime, a platform enabling round-the-clock institutional trading of perpetual swaps linked to over 100 traditional financial markets, including stocks, commodities, and currencies. This service operates through Hyperliquid and allows clients like Virtu to trade even when conventional exchanges are closed, using Ripple's US dollar-backed stablecoin RLUSD as collateral. The move expands Ripple's prime brokerage capabilities beyond crypto into traditional finance, offering cross-margining and consolidated risk management. While this broadens institutional access, it does not directly increase XRP demand, and Ripple plans to extend the service to more regions in the future.
