What Is XRP?

XRP is a digital asset native to the XRP Ledger (XRPL), an open-source, permissionless, and decentralized blockchain launched in 2012. Designed specifically for fast and efficient value transfer, XRP settles transactions in just 3–5 seconds, with minimal energy consumption and near-zero fees.

Unlike proof-of-work blockchains, XRP operates on a unique consensus mechanism that eliminates mining, making it one of the most environmentally sustainable digital assets available. Often described as a faster, greener alternative to Bitcoin, XRP is widely used for cross-border payments and real-time settlements by financial institutions and payment providers worldwide.

Its robust infrastructure, developer-friendly ecosystem, and strong focus on compliance have solidified XRP’s position as a key player in the future of global finance.
