Ripple napoveduje partnerstva med državami Bližnjevzhodne Afrike med stalnimi prepiri s SEC

Ripple announced yesterday that they would be partnering with BankDhofar Oman’s second largest bank. This follows last week’s announcement that they would be teaming up with the National Bank of Egypt on a similar project.

In June 2017 Ripple sprosti their vision for the internet of value, the basic idea being that value should be exchanged as quickly as information. They saw the high cost and slow delivery of fiat currencies and wanted to address these issues.

Z uporabo verige blokov so želeli odstraniti vse posrednike iz postopka zamenjave premoženja ali plačil. Vendar je bil takrat trg preplavljen z vrsto konkurenčnih verig blokov, ki se med seboj niso nujno povezale. Najprej je bilo treba določiti industrijske standarde.

Od leta 2017 je trg blockchain dozorel in dosegel veliko splošno sprejetost. To je ustvarilo več priložnosti za projekte, kot je Ripple's Internet of Value.

Egipt, Indija in ZAE

While Ripple’s woes with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have been well documented over the last few months, they’ve been making modest growth when it comes to payments.

Last week, Ripple razglasitve their partnership with Egypt’s largest bank, the National Bank of Egypt. Through RippleNet, they would be partnering with the United Arab Emirates-based LuLu International Exchange to process cross-border payments from the United Arab Emirates to Egypt.

Egipt je lani prejel 24 milijard ameriških dolarjev, s čimer je po Indiji, Kitajski, Mehiki in Filipinih postal eden prvih petih koridorjev nakazil po vsem svetu.

Včerajšnji Objava that Ripple would be working with Bank Dhofar opens the door to another of the top remittance corridors in India. Working with BankDhofar and the Indian private sector bank IndusInd Bank to bring real-time payments into India.

This partnership is apparently of greater significance than last week’s announcement, as India is the top remittance receiving country in the world. Indian guest workers across the UAE and indeed the global send about $ 76 milijarde a year back home.

Valovanje v drugih novicah

Ripple has been engaged in an nenehna bitka with the SEC and their future is still unsure in the face of serious federal charges.

In December 2020, the SEC brought forward a case alleging that Ripple had conducted an unregistered securities offering of $1.3 billion through the sale of the XRP tokens. While Ripple and their executive board deny these allegations, the case is ongoing and it remains to be seen if Ripple will come through unscathed.
