Ripple Emeritus Schwartz Says Trillion-Dollar DeFi Adoption Is 'Really Close'

  • —Schwartz says regulatory obstacles to tokenization are "really coming down"
  • —Ripple Prime processed over $13 trillion in payments in 2025, none in XRP or stablecoins
  • —Ripple President Monica Long expects 10x network transaction growth in a year
  • —XRP closed at $1.29 on Oct. 17, down from $1.41 on Oct. 11
Why it matters: Ripple executives are framing tokenization and DeFi as the next growth driver, though XRP usage has yet to follow the narrative.
