The Growth of Remittances between the United States and Mexico
About 2 days ago, the CEO of Ripple Brad Garlinghouse was in a conversation on CNN’s First Move. There he discussed the significant growth of transactions in XRP between the United States and Mexico.
This corridor is recognized by Ripple as one of the largest remittance corridors in the world.
According to the CEO, the company’s remittance platform processed $54 million in XRP between the US and Mexico in the first week of February 2020.
He said, “Last week, we did $54 million of XRP flows into Mexico. That’s 7.5% of all flows from the US dollar to Mexican peso. That’s up from 3% in December. So this is growing very quickly.”
The Ripple’s CEO believes that the blockchain tech is really making a positive impact in the lives of the customers, which brings about the rapid growth of remittances.
“You have to focus on a real problem, a real customer and drive that utility. With 7.5% of liquidity into Mexico are being driven through XRP, you start to really see that it is not a science experiment,” said Brad Garlinghouse.
