Ripple Prime is now stepping into tokenized commodities, extending access through Hyperliquid’s HIP-3. For institutional crypto trading, it opens up round-the-clock access to markets that do not run that way.

Ripple Tests Trade Finance in Singapore’s BLOOM Sandbox

The setup also changes how these markets are accessed. Instead of routing trades across different platforms, execution, margin, and settlement are handled within the same environment. This structure is closer to how crypto derivatives operate and removes some of the operational layers tied to traditional commodity trading.

Ripple has been gradually expanding its footprint in this space. In addition to this latest update, the firm will be part of Singapore’s BLOOM sandbox. Through this, the firm is testing tokenized finance using XRP Ledger and RLUSD.
