Synopsis
—DAY 19— Ripple’s CASP milestone lands at a moment when the market case for stablecoin-based payments has never been stronger. Global stablecoin transaction volume reached $33 trillion in 2025, surpassing global credit card volume. Institutions are running transactions simultaneously across global USD and local currency stablecoins, matching assets to corridors, counterparties, and regulatory environments. The infrastructure needs to match that reality. Ripple Payments supports payouts across 60+ major markets on 51 real-time payment rails, backed by 20+ banking partners, with over $100 billion in total volume processed. With Europe now in the post-transitional MiCA era, the conditions for institutional adoption of stablecoin payment rails are stronger than ever. For financial institutions and businesses building the next generation of European digital asset services, Ripple enters the post-MiCA era fully licensed, with the compliance architecture already in place and deep institutional relationships established across the EEA. The groundwork has been done. What comes next is scale.
