XRP is the native cryptocurrency of the XRP Ledger, an open-source blockchain developed by Ripple Labs. Unlike Bitcoin, XRP uses a unique consensus protocol called the XRP Ledger Consensus Protocol, which achieves finality in 3-5 seconds with fees of approximately $0.0002 — making it one of the most practical cryptocurrencies for real-world payments.
XRP was designed for cross-border payment settlement, enabling financial institutions to transfer value globally without the delays and costs of traditional correspondent banking. Ripple's On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) service uses XRP as a bridge currency, allowing instant international settlements without pre-funded accounts.
In July 2023, Ripple achieved a landmark partial victory against the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), with a federal court ruling that XRP is not a security when sold on public exchanges. This ruling significantly improved XRP's regulatory standing and led to increased institutional interest.
