Ripple Labs and SettleMint have announced a strategic partnership that plugs Ripple Custody into SettleMint\u2019s Digital Asset Lifecycle Platform (DALP), giving regulated financial institutions a single system to custody, issue and manage tokenized assets across their full lifecycle.<\/p>\n
Announced from Singapore, the offering has already commenced in Asia, and the companies plan to extend it to other markets as institutional demand develops. Beyond banks, the stack targets market infrastructure operators and sovereign entities, adding compliance, settlement and servicing to the custody and issuance layer so institutions can drop separate vendors for each function.<\/p>\n
\u201cFinancial institutions across Asia Pacific are putting digital assets to work. They are asking how to do more without stitching together separate solutions for custody, issuance and governance,\u201d said Fiona Murray, Managing Director, Asia Pacific at Ripple.<\/p>\n
The joint release cites Boston Consulting Group\u2019s May 2026 report, \u201cThe Future of Digital Assets,\u201d which describes the shift toward digital assets as a fundamental restructuring of financial infrastructure.<\/p>\n
Today, we\u2019re proud to announce a landmark partnership between SettleMint and @Ripple<\/a> that offers regulated financial institutions a single, connected foundation for digital asset custody, issuance and lifecycle management.<\/p>\n Read the announcement: https:\/\/t.co\/QkLvqg50Xl<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/1CVO1wCakf<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 SettleMint (@SettleMintCom) September 1, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n\n BCG projects that tokenized real-world assets could reach $88 trillion by 2035, and estimates that banks failing to adapt could see profits fall by as much as 30% over the same horizon. The release also names RLUSD, Ripple\u2019s stablecoin, and the cryptocurrency XRP as assets underpinning the company\u2019s solutions.<\/p>\n Elsewhere in the region, Ripple piloted<\/a> RLUSD in Singapore\u2019s central bank sandbox with supply chain finance firm Unloq in March, and its XRP Ledger featured<\/a> in a cross-border pilot with JPMorgan, Mastercard and Ondo Finance that settled tokenized US Treasuries in under five seconds.<\/p>\n Ever since it was founded, Ripple has been selling payments, custody, liquidity and treasury infrastructure to banks and payment providers, and has assembled the custody line through a run of transactions. Moreover, Ripple has put its cumulative M&A and corporate venture spending on crypto infrastructure at around $4 billion.<\/p>\n Those include partnerships with Securosys and Figment, an integration with compliance analytics firm Chainalysis, and the acquisition<\/a> of wallet infrastructure provider Palisade, which added MPC-based key sharding and multi-chain support.<\/p>\n SettleMint supplies the lifecycle side. Headquartered in Leuven, Belgium (though it has offices in the UAE, Singapore and Japan), the company stated that its composable DALP already runs in production and pre-production deployments across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific for banks, market operators and governments.<\/p>\n \u201cGlobal capital markets are moving fully on-chain, and that shift only works when digital asset custody and lifecycle management operate as one system rather than two,\u201d noted Adam Popat, CEO of SettleMint.<\/p>\n The post New Important Ripple (XRP) Partnership Targets Banks and Institutional Clients<\/a> appeared first on CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ripple Labs and SettleMint have announced a strategic partnership that plugs Ripple Custody into SettleMint\u2019s Digital Asset Lifecycle Platform (DALP), giving regulated financial institutions a single system to custody, issue and manage tokenized assets across their full lifecycle.
