Ripple (CCC:XRP-USD) is on the move today as it continues to overcome its legal controversies. As the blockchain ledger’s SEC lawsuit continuously winds down, big business updates are at the front of its priorities. Today, two new moves are bolstering the stock’s value and exciting buyers who want to move past the courtroom. What does this all mean for Ripple (XRP) price predictions?
BankDhofar, a prominent bank in Oman, is partnering up with Ripple. The blockchain tech, which offers faster and cheaper international wire transfers than a typical bank, will be providing transfers between Oman and India. The partnership is just the newest in a string of collaborations with major global banks. In May, Ripple partnered up with the National Bank of Egypt to enable wire transfers to Egyptians working in the UAE.
Furthermore, the company is jumping into the NFT game. The trading and minting of non-fungible tokens can now occur on the XRP ledger. The move comes as a way to combat the high gas fees of using other blockchain ledgers.
