Mercado Bitcoin plans to tokenize over $200 million in real-world assets on the XRP Ledger, supported by Ripple for global access to regulated digital products.
This initiative is one of the region's significant blockchain integrations, with assets like equity income and fixed-income instruments being tokenized on the XRP Ledger.
The XRP Ledger has a robust infrastructure with over 200 validators and 6 million active wallets, facilitating secure financial settlements and transactions.
Ripple's partnership with Mercado Bitcoin aligns with the exchange's global strategy to connect Latin American liquidity with Europe using the XRP Ledger's global network, as indicated by a projected $19 trillion tokenized RWA market by 2033.
