Introducing these solutions in Japan is just the beginning of a broader plan. HashKey DX, Ripple, and SBI Ripple Asia are exploring additional blockchain use cases that could benefit from XRPL’s capabilities.
Andy Dan from HashKey DX expressed enthusiasm about the partnership.
“The XRPL was the ideal blockchain infrastructure for us to build our proven supply chain finance solution… We are confident in our ability to drive meaningful transformation and introduce innovative, cutting-edge solutions for businesses in Japan,” Dan noted.
Emi Yoshikawa, Vice President of Strategic Initiatives at Ripple, also commented on the collaboration.
“This collaboration exemplifies our shared commitment to advancing blockchain technology and delivering tangible value to businesses,” Yoshikawa added.
