The XRP community has embraced the event. One X user, EasyA, noted, “XRP community day is always such a blast! Last one was incredible.” Another user, GiftHorseHUB, praised the community day, saying, “XRP holders diving deep into real use cases? Now that’s community power.”

The event update follows Ripple’s enterprise product expansion. As earlier reported, Ripple launched Ripple Treasury, a unified platform that combines traditional cash management with digital asset rails and adds a new line within its custody, stablecoin, and institutional services push. 

However, despite the expansion, Ripple executives have reiterated that XRP remains central to the company’s strategy, with one noting that “XRP will continue to be at the heart” of the company’s vision. In the meantime, the XRP price was trading at $1.87, a 1.64% decline.
