The post RWAs, Stablecoins and DeFi Could Transform XRP Utility appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. XRP’s Shift From Bridge Asset to Institutional DeFi Backbone Gains Momentum Across XRPL Ecosystem  According to crypto market intelligence firm Messari, XRP is steadily evolving from a simple bridge asset into a broader utility token embedded within the expanding institutional DeFi ecosystem on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). In its State of XRP Q1 2026 report, Messari notes that this shift is being driven by both direct protocol upgrades and indirect network effects.  On the direct side, upcoming features such as native lending will allow XRP to be lent and borrowed on-chain, expanding its role beyond payments into credit markets and collateralized finance.

Traditional transfers often move through several intermediary banks before reaching the recipient. Consequently, the process increases delays and raises transaction costs. Ripple developed its On-Demand Liquidity service to solve these long-standing issues.  The system uses XRP as a bridge asset between currencies, allowing institutions to move funds within seconds instead of days. Moreover, the model removes the need for banks to maintain expensive foreign currency reserves across multiple countries. How Ripple’s ODL Chan
