In the sprawling jungle of corporate crypto treasures, Ripple Labs is gearing up to flex with a potential $1 billion XRP buy.
Not gonna lie, that could shake up the whole crypto asset treasury game.
Bloomberg spills that Ripple might be assembling a digital asset treasury, a DAT, straddled by a massive XRP haul, possibly through a slick special purpose acquisition company, a SPAC setup.

Details are still simmering, and insiders hint Ripple could bring both freshly minted tokens and a chunk of its existing XRP stash to the table.
Corporate XRP accumulation
This play, if it comes to life, would be one of the biggest corporate XRP accumulations ever.
Ripple’s already sitting pretty with over 4.5 billion XRP in hand plus another 37 billion locked up in escrow, drip-fed monthly like a crypto slow cooker.
A $1 billion fresh buy adds roughly 427 million XRP, thickening Ripple’s grip on the circulating tokens and sending a clear message, Ripple isn’t here to play small.
Crypto for institutions
The company is mum on public comment, but the moves say plenty. Ripple dropped $1 billion on GTreasury, a firm that masters treasury management, signaling ambitions to manage both old-school and crypto assets.
Think stablecoins, tokenized deposits, and yield-packed reserves. It’s a full-on attempt to build a crypto fortress for institutions, blending tradition with blockchain’s new frontier.
Should this XRP storm hit the market, Ripple would stand tall as the biggest corporate holder of an XRP treasury worldwide, elbowing its way alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum giants.
Currently, the throne belongs to BTC and ETH holders, commanding about $152 billion and $23 billion in corporate treasuries, respectively.
XRP has played a smaller role so far, but maybe that’s about to change. Ripple’s move could be the spark igniting corporate interest in this often-overlooked token.
Big plans
And it’s already a trend. Ripple’s not alone in this arena. Trident Digital Tech Holdings in Singapore plans a $500 million XRP treasury.
Chinese AI firm Webus and energy company VivoPower also sit on XRP reserves of $300 million and $100 million, respectively. Nice numbers.
Experts say if Ripple’s plan kicks off, and it’s pretty likely it will, expect a big shift in corporate crypto strategies.
XRP could graduate from the sidelines to a starring treasury-grade asset, rewriting the balance sheet narratives big time.
