Ripple XRP and Interledger Protocols
Notably, the report states that Xpring investments are anticipated to produce use cases for Ripple’s XRP. They hope to accomplish this by making development uncomplicated, and mention they are propping up developers by making available libraries, tools, and services for developers on the XRP Ledger and Interledger protocols.
Furthermore, Xpring is purportedly taking a 2 way modus operandi to craft more use cases, all the way through infrastructure development and novel ventures. Moreover, they mentioned a contribution to the XRP Ledger and Interledger protocols, i.e. the native Ripple ledger and a protocol for blockchain interoperability, as instances of infrastructure development.
For a moment, the proclamation notes that Xpring is also focused on deFi. It also noted that Xpring will look to invest in cryptocurrency-based solutions for various facets of finance like derivatives and debt.
