How Hex Trust is Bringing Multi-Chain Utility to the XRP Ledger
summary
Hex Trust describes issuing 1:1 backed wXRP by holding native XRP in regulated custody and minting representations that live on HyperEVM, Ethereum, Optimism, and Solana, enabling XRP to interact with high-velocity DeFi for borrowing and yield. Notes Babylon protocol as the primitive that turned BTC into a yield-bearing institutional asset in 2025 and cites the DTCC plan to tokenize hundreds of billions as a catalyst, while flagging missing secondary-market liquidity and regulatory comfort.
