🚨 Ripple is becoming the rail. Literally.
Ripple is set to acquire stablecoin payments platform Rail for $200M, per Reuters.
Deal closing expected in Q4 2025, pending regulatory approvals.
Why it matters:
→ Follows launch of Ripple’s $RLUSD stablecoin
→ Rail adds infra like virtual accounts & automated settlement
→ Signals Ripple’s ambition to own the stablecoin payment stack
With this move, Ripple isn’t just riding the rails — it's laying them.
