Ripple network sent 54 million in one week from the U.S. to Mexico, according to the reports. Such a big volume level pushes XRP price greatly, even though the recent downfall. With the company reaching the top 100 cross-border payment corporations chart, new horizons are opened in front of Brad Garlinghouse.
In recent weeks, Ripple has made significant progress in evaluating their infrastructure for good business. Ripple is joining Visa and PayPal at the Olympus of 100 best international remittance services list. They are setting the record because it’s the only cryptocurrency platform on the list. Strange, because the early Bitcoin adopters were constantly selling the technology to friends as the ‘cheap international payments solution’.
