Is SWIFT Integrating XRP For Payments? The Code Might Hold The Answer
Crypto pundit SMQKE has speculated that SWIFT may be integrating XRP for payments, citing code from the R3 Corda codebase that links XRP to ISO 20022 and SWIFT network. The code includes modules named XrpPayment and SWIFTPaymentStatusType, suggesting technical compatibility. While XRP is ISO 20022-ready, enabling potential connections with SWIFT-enabled institutions, SWIFT has not confirmed any integration. Currently, the only known link is through Ripple Treasury, a SWIFT connectivity partner, though SWIFT does not use XRP for payments. In related news, X (formerly Twitter) has added XRP to its cashtags feature, increasing its visibility. XRP is trading at around $1.40, up 3% in 24 hours.
