XRP treasury firm trend grows as Evernorth, backed by Ripple Labs, enters the arena

The fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, XRP, is getting a new treasury firm: Evernorth.

The firm will list on the Nasdaq and expects to raise over $1 billion in gross proceeds from SBI, Ripple Labs, Pantera Capital, Kraken, and GSR, according to a press release. Chris Larsen, cofounder and executive chairman of Ripple, also announced investing 50 million XRP tokens worth $124.5 million. Net proceeds are dedicated for open-market acquisitions of XRP.

Evernorth joins a number of firms stockpiling XRP, such as VivoPower International, Trident Digital Tech Holdings, and Webus

The announcement comes during a fragile period for crypto markets, but the latest news has boosted XRP’s price and the asset is back to flat over the last seven days.
