XRP has once again come to the forefront after being cited as an example of a commodity in the guidance document published by the SEC and CFTC, while important statements have come from the CEO of Ripple Prime.

In an interview with Jake Claver of Digital Ascension Group, Ripple Prime CEO Mike Higgins stated that XRP could be used as institutional collateral.

Ripple Prime’s CEO stated that XRP is being used as collateral for institutional transactions. According to Higgins, institutions are now actively using XRP as collateral to access traditional financial markets.

This statement comes after community criticism that Ripple, following its acquisition of Hidden Road, was prioritizing its own native stablecoin RLUSD over XRP.

Higgins explained that Ripple Prime accepts XRP not only as a means of payment but also as collateral.

The CEO emphasized that “XRP plays a key role,” stating, “It supports institutions in borrowing funds and conducting transactions based on XRP held as collateral.”

At this point, Higgins added that institutional investors could provide liquidity without selling XRP, thus expanding XRP’s use cases.

Ripple announced it will add Hyperliquid (HYPE) to Ripple Prime, its primary brokerage platform for institutional investors.

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

The post Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are off to a 2-0 start. Getty Images The Green Bay Packers are, once again, one of the NFL’s better teams. The Cleveland Browns are, once again, one of the league’s doormats. It’s why unbeaten Green Bay (2-0) is a 8-point favorite at winless Cleveland (0-2) Sunday according to betmgm.com. The money line is also Green Bay -500. Most expect this to be a Packers’ rout, and it very well could be. But Green Bay knows taking anyone in this league for granted can prove costly. “I think if you look at their roster, the paper, who they have on that team, what they can do, they got a lot of talent and things can turn around quickly for them,” Packers safety Xavier McKinney said. “We just got to kind of keep that in mind and know we not just walking into something and they just going to lay down. That’s not what they going to do.” The Browns certainly haven’t laid down on defense. Far from. Cleveland is allowing an NFL-best 191.5 yards per game. The Browns gave up 141 yards to Cincinnati in Week 1, including just seven in the second half, but still lost, 17-16. Cleveland has given up an NFL-best 45.5 rushing yards per game and just 2.1 rushing yards per attempt. “The biggest thing is our defensive line is much, much improved over last year and I think we’ve got back to our personality,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said recently. “When we play our best, our D-line leads us there as our engine.” The Browns rank third in the league in passing defense, allowing just 146.0 yards per game. Cleveland has also gone 30 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL.…
