A notable trademark filing has cemented Ripple’s next major move in its institutional roadmap and stirred anticipation across the crypto space for what’s coming next. Xaif (@Xaif_Crypto), a well-known crypto enthusiast, shared the new “Ripple Prime” trademark on X, listed under insurance, financial affairs, monetary affairs, and real estate affairs, marking the formal debut of a brand that could redefine Ripple’s reach in global finance. From Hidden Road to Ripple Prime Ripple recently finalized its $1.25 billion acquisition of Hidden Road, a multi-asset prime brokerage serving institutional clients across foreign exchange, derivatives, and digital assets. The deal, announced in April 2025 and completed in October 2025, brought one of the most well-connected prime brokers in the crypto sector under Ripple’s umbrella. Following the acquisition, Hidden Road was officially rebranded as Ripple Prime , a move that consolidates Ripple’s suite of institutional services. This transformation enables Ripple to directly offer prime brokerage solutions, including clearing, execution, and financing across cryptocurrency, foreign exchange, and fixed-income markets. By integrating Ripple Prime’s regulatory framework and liquidity network, Ripple has taken a decisive step toward becoming a full-service financial technology provider. NEW APPLICATION ENTERED!

The launch of Ripple Prime positions the company to offer institutional-grade services that comply with regulatory standards while maintaining the efficiency and transparency XRP offers. Why Ripple Prime Matters for XRP For XRP, this development could be a defining moment. Ripple Prime creates a new channel for on-demand liquidity (ODL) usage, potentially expanding XRP’s role in institutional settlement. The brokerage now allows U.S. clients to conduct over-the-counter (OTC) spot transactions for digital assets, including XRP and Ripple’s stablecoin RLUSD. As institutional trading volumes increase within Ripple’s ecosystem, the demand for XRP as a bridge asset could strengthen. The new structure gives Ripple a unified platform where XRP operates alongside stablecoins and fiat pairs, providing liquidity across multiple markets. This integration enhances XRP’s use case beyond remittances and moves it closer to being a core liquidity instrument in institutional finance.
