XRP is a cryptocurrency developed by the company Ripple, designed to facilitate fast and low-cost international money transfers. Unlike many other cryptocurrencies, XRP is not mined; all coins were created at once during launch, which reduces the risk of inflation. The main goal of XRP is to serve as a bridge between different currencies and banks, enabling instant transactions with minimal fees. Due to its speed and low cost, XRP is often used by financial institutions for cross-border payments. However, the cryptocurrency also faces criticism and legal challenges, which affect its perception and market value.
