About Ripple

Ripple is both a cryptocurrency and a payment settlement network. The underlying blockchain is known as the XRP Ledger. It uses the XRP token to exchange between different currencies with a high transaction speed. Settlement through Ripple takes between 3 to 5 seconds, and the network can handle 1500 transactions per second.

Ripple was launched in 2012 as OpenCoin and has focused on partnering with financial institutions for near-instant conversion and settlement of transactions. The XRP Ledger is an open-source technology and developers can create their own blockchain projects using tools and code provided by XRP
