Ripple (XRP) Partners With Hyperledger

Hyperledger is an open source collaborative effort created to advance cross-industry blockchain technologies. On March 28th, Hyperledger announced that 14 new organizations had joined the project, and amongst them, was Ripple (XRP). This brings the Hyperledger community to one that has 231 organizations in more than 25 countries from all over the world.

Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Stefan Thomas, was emphatic about the partnership and was quoted as saying:
“Through our partnership with Hyperledger, developers worldwide will be able to access Interledger Protocol (ILP) in Java for enterprise use. The Hyperledger Quilt project connects Hyperledger blockchains with other ILP-capable payment systems such as XRP Ledger, Ethereum, Bitcoin (Lightning), Litecoin, Mojaloop and RippleNet, helping us to deliver on our vision for an Internet of Value – where money moves as information does today.”
