Ripple Prime launches 24/7 real-world asset perpetual swaps
Ripple announced that its institutional brokerage division, Ripple Prime, now offers perpetual swaps linked to over 100 traditional financial markets, including equities, ETFs, indices, precious metals, energy and FX. The swaps trade continuously, even on weekends, and are based on perpetual futures contracts listed on Trade.xyz via the Hyperliquid DEX. Ripple Prime acts as principal, allowing institutions to cross‑margin positions and use its RLUSD stablecoin as collateral where permitted. Trading firm Virtu is among the first clients using the service. The offering operates under Ripple Prime’s CIV BVI license with plans to expand to more jurisdictions.
