Ripple Unlocks New Era of Tokenized Funds on XRP Ledger

Ripple announced Monday that Archax, a Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)-regulated digital asset exchange, has facilitated access to a tokenized money market fund managed by UK-based asset manager Abrdn on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). Ripple detailed:

The fund comprises part of Abrdn’s £3.8 billion U.S. dollar Liquidity Fund (Lux) and represents the first tokenized money market fund on the XRPL.

This development underscores XRPL’s growing role as a leading platform for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization and institutional decentralized finance (defi), Ripple noted. The company further explained: “This milestone is the result of an ongoing collaboration between Archax and Ripple, the leader in enterprise blockchain and crypto solutions. It marks an important step towards unlocking operational cost savings and settlement efficiencies by deploying capital markets infrastructure on the XRPL.”

Markus Infanger, senior vice president of Ripplex, commented: “The arrival of abrdn’s money market fund on XRPL demonstrates how real-world assets are being tokenized to enhance operational efficiencies, while further reinforcing the XRPL as one of the leading blockchains for real-world asset tokenization. There is no question that the on-chain economy is gaining traction.” Ripplex is a division of Ripple that focuses on building and supporting blockchain infrastructure and applications to accelerate the adoption of blockchain technology.

The collaboration marks a significant step in modernizing financial infrastructure. The announcement details:

Ripple will allocate USD$5 million into tokens on Abrdn’s Lux fund. Ripple’s allocation represents part of a larger fund that Ripple will allocate to RWAs on the XRPL provided by a range of asset managers.

Institutional buyers can now purchase the Abrdn Lux fund in tokenized form directly through Archax’s platform, reflecting the growing demand for blockchain-powered financial solutions.
