Tyler Winklevoss Reveals Gemini’s New XRP Ledger Support in Singapore

Gemini Market News
  • Gemini extended its native XRP Ledger support in Singapore with the move announced by Tyler Winklevoss regarding XRP.
  • XRP kept gaining momentum with increased ETF inflows, futures trading, and institutional involvement.

Gemini is offering native XRP Ledger deposits and withdrawals in Singapore, enabling users to transact in XRP via XRPL. Gemini co-founder Tyler Winklevoss disclosed the feature on Monday, describing it as “big news” for the XRP community in Asia. Singapore continues to be a leading financial capital and crypto hub regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

This move takes place amid increased recognition of the XRP Ledger in financial institutions and tokenization. For instance, Ripple became part of Singapore’s MAS BLOOM project, where the company will investigate RLUSD’s role in enhancing international business transactions. The XRP Ledger was also used by JPMorgan, Ripple, Mastercard, and Ondo Finance to conduct a cross-border tokenized treasury settlement. At the same time, XRPL 3.3.0 made alterations aimed at privacy and institutional adoption.

The Gemini decision provides yet another link between XRP infrastructure and the financial system in Singapore. Deposits and withdrawals of native XRPL also provide an opportunity for eligible customers to make payments using the XRP network directly.
