Will Ripple Be Seen as XRP Treasury Company?

Crypto Master

Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley has suggested that Ripple could be potentially viewed as an “XRP treasury company” in 12 months. 

According to Ripple’s XRP markets report for the first quarter, the company’s total holdings currently stand at 4.56 billion XRP. 

There are also 37 billion XRP tokens kept in escrow, according to the most recent data.

As reported by U.Today, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse previously claimed that the company’s $11 billion valuation was “very outdated”, pointing to the company’s vast XRP riches that total roughly $100 billion.
