đ BREAKING: Tokenized Gold Coming to the XRP Ledger? đȘđ
The XRP community might be on the verge of a major utility upgrade⊠and it isnât just about price action.
âš Whatâs the Buzz?
Web3 founders and XRPL developers are saying that tokenized gold â backed by real physical metal â could soon run on the XRP Ledger.
đ„ Meld Gold is already on the Ledger
Meld partnered with Ripple back in 2024 and issued gold & silver tokens on XRPL â each backed by 1 g of real metal stored securely.
đšâđ§ Devs are hyped
Phil Kwok (EasyA co-founder) tweeted:
âTokenised gold is coming to the XRPL â and itâs going to be epic.â
Validators and builders are pointing out that XRPLâs fast settlement, 24/7 availability, and potential DeFi integrations make it ideal for real-world assets.
đ Market Angle
XRPâs price has been reacting to these narratives â hitting multi-dollar levels earlier this month before settling near current levels. No direct causal proof yet, but traders are watching closely.
đ§ What This Could Mean for the XRPL Ecosystem
đĄ New use cases beyond payments
Gold & metals on-chain could drive more transaction volume and liquidity â opening doors for:
âš Tokenized commodities trading
âš Decentralized lending & escrow with metal-backed collateral
âš New institutional real-world asset (RWA) products on XRPL
đ But adoption still hinges on:
Custody and audit standards
Clear regulations
Strong economic incentives for issuers and institutions
đ No guarantees, but the groundwork might be happening now.
đč Will tokenized gold give XRP/Ledger a real-world structural edge?
đč Could this drive new liquidity and use cases?
đč Or is this just talk until big institutions commit?
