The development suggests that Metaco has the necessary technology and expertise to bolster institutional adoption of digital assets, a move that will be of benefit to Ripple’s business line.
Several cryptocurrency proponents, especially members of the XRP community, took to the comment section to congratulate Metaco on the latest milestone. Interestingly, an XRP enthusiast teigė that Ripple made the right choice by acquiring the custody-focused company, considering its potential.
Metaco’s recognition comes weeks after it was pavadintas the Best Innovation in Digital Assets at the 2023 Global Custodian’s Leaders in Custody Awards.
Ripple’s Metaco Acquisition
As pranešė earlier by The Crypto Basic, Ripple announced its foray into the crypto custody business following the acquisition of Metaco for a whopping $250 million on May 17.
Notably, Metaco offers institutional cryptocurrency custody and trading services, and some of its clients include BNP Paribas, Citi, and Societe Generale. Despite Ripple’s acquisition of Metaco, the custody firm will remain an independent brand and business unit.
However, Ripple will be the sole shareholder of Metaco. A week after the deal, the leading stock exchange, NASDAQ, sveikino Ripple for the acquisition – a development that sparked speculations of a looming IPO.
Ripple Makes Major Progress Despite SEC Lawsuit
Meanwhile, Ripple has been making significant progress despite being embroiled in a multi-year legal battle against the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Earlier this month, Ripple atidaryta a new regional office in Dubai.
Bendrovė taip pat pradėjo a new central bank digital currency (CBDC) platform, allowing financial institutions, central banks, and governments to issue their own digital currencies. The tremendous growth of Ripple’s businesses shows that the ongoing SEC lawsuit does not demoralize the company.
Ripple believes the Judge will grant the summary judgment in its favor. However, if Judge Analisa Torres issues a summary judgment decision in favor of the SEC, the blockchain company has stated that it will immediately appeal the ruling.
