Ripple XRP/USD is essentially this decentralized cryptocurrency token that powers the RippleNet payment platform.
RippleNet is a platform developed in 2012 as a means of offering banks and financial institutions a real-time gross settlement system which led to secure and instant financial transactions on a global scale.
The stock buyback announcement as a catalyst for growth
On January 24, we covered our Ripple price predictions and how a relief rally was expected.
Ripple managed to get a $15 billion valuation after a private stock buyback, according to a Tweet by Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple.
The company is essentially repurchasing equity shares from investors in its Series C, including Tetragon, which is a company that managed to successfully sue Ripple last year. Throughout the previous raise, Ripple’s valuation was at $10 billion.
However, this buyback is a reflection of Ripple’s strong position in the market and global company momentum, as it had shown exponential growth in 2021 when it was the company’s best year to date.
Additionally, the company said that the RippleNet platform had seen transactions double in 2021.
