RIPPLE OFFERS ‘BANK-GRADE’ CUSTODY TECH TO CRYPTO FIRMS
Digital asset infrastructure firm Ripple has introduced new features and functionalities for its custody solution.
“Custody is a key entry point into the digital asset economy, and it’s only growing,” Ripple said in a Thursday (Oct. 10) press release.
The company notes that the amount of crypto assets custodied is projected to reach at least $16 trillion by 2030, by which time 10% of the world’s GDP is also expected to be tokenized.
“As such, companies need secure, compliant and flexible options to store their crypto,” the release added.
According to Ripple, the update includes a transaction screening service integration, added hardware security module options, an XRPL integration for tokenizing real world assets (RWA), pre-configured policy frameworks and upgrades to the platform’s usability and user interface.
In addition, Ripple Custody now supports XRP Ledger tokenization features, letting businesses to tokenize and manage assets including cryptocurrencies, fiat currencies, and real-world assets “while facilitating digital asset issuance and secure transfers directly from its platform,” the company added.

PYMNTS examined the tokenization of RWA earlier this year, noting that it was another component of blockchain that has gotten the attention of players in the payments, finance and commerce worlds: the ability for organizations to denote ownership rights of a real-world asset as a digital, on-chain token.
“Tokenized RWAs have the potential to make assets more liquid, accessible and efficient while enhancing transparency, security and global reach,” that report said.
“Representing RWAs on the blockchain — such as real estate, private equity and venture investments, fine art and collectibles, physical commodities like gold, fixed income instruments, intellectual property assets and even stocks and equities — can transform the way ownership of assets is recorded and enable new functions.”
In more recent tokenization news, PYMNTS spoke Thursday with Mastercard Chief Product Officer Jorn Lambertabout how the technology could improve any use case where the exchange of data is the norm.
It can boost more than commerce, he said, though the most obvious benefit is to merchants, issuers and customers.
“We’ve needed to rethink, from the ground up, how we architect security,” Lambert said.
In a world where credentials are stored on billions of mobile devices and could be stored on millions of servers globally, “you have to assume that the bad actors and the hackers will get their hands on that data, no matter how tall and thick the firewalls you build,” he added.

RIPPLE CEO CRITICIZES U.S. SEC: IS SEC ABOVE THE LAW?
▪️Brad Garlinghouse slams SEC for ignoring the ruling that XRP isn’t a security.
▪️Bitnomial argues XRP futures should fall under CFTC, not SEC regulation.
▪️Stuart Alderoty questions SEC’s credibility, calling its actions unconstitutional.
In July 2023, U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres ruled that the XRP token is not a security, a decision seen as a partial win for Ripple Labs and the broader crypto industry. Yet, despite this ruling, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) remains firm in insisting that XRP is a security.
Criticizing the SEC’s disregard for the court ruling, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse lashed out at the regulator. His response follows Bitnomial’s lawsuit, challenging the SEC’s stance on XRP futures.
Brad Garlinghouse Slams SEC
In a recent tweet, Brad Garlinghouse voiced his frustration with the SEC, criticizing the agency for ignoring the court’s decision that XRP is not a security. He pointed out that the SEC’s actions show an attitude of acting above the law.
Garlinghouse’s disapproval comes as the SEC maintains its stance in the Bitnomial case, where the crypto derivatives exchange Bitnomial challenged the SEC’s classification of XRP futures as “security futures.”
Bitnomial argues that XRP futures should fall under the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), as XRP itself has not been labeled security. In its court filing, Bitnomial a*****d the SEC of overstepping its authority and placing unnecessary regulatory burdens on the exchange.
Supporting Ripple’s stance, Bitnomial noted that the SEC’s position directly conflicts with the court’s ruling, which found that XRP is not a security.
Regulatory Body or Bully?
Meanwhile, Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, also weighed in, questioning the credibility of a regulatory agency that disregards court rulings.
Alderoty highlighted that the SEC’s aggressive measures are unconstitutional, further damaging the agency’s credibility. He described the SEC’s behavior as an alarming example of a regulatory body pushing compliance through threats, despite being defeated in court.

SEC Pushing Its Authority Too Far
The SEC’s insistence on regulating XRP as a security has raised concerns within the crypto community. Meanwhile, pro-XRP lawyer Bill Morgan and legal expert John Deaton have both a*****d the SEC of overreach and questioned the agency’s motives.
Deaton pointed to a recent case involving Digital Licensing, where the SEC was sanctioned for m********t, further fueling skepticism about the regulator’s approach.
