Ripple has wrapped up its $1 billion acquisition of GTreasury, marking the completion of a four-part buying spree aimed at controlling the full digital asset infrastructure stack. The deal brings corporate treasury management tools into Ripple’s expanding payments ecosystem.
Along with Rail, Palisade, and Ripple Prime, the company now offers custody, liquidity, and real-time settlement through a single platform. The move positions Ripple to serve enterprises seeking faster cross-border payments and better capital management.
Ripple Invests $4B to Build Unified Financial Stack
Ripple spent nearly $4 billion on strategic investments and acquisitions throughout 2025.
The GTreasury purchase stands as the largest, targeting the corporate finance sector where treasury teams manage trillions in daily flows. The acquired firm brings over 40 years of experience serving major global companies.
The platform will now give clients access to digital asset rails alongside traditional treasury functions.
Corporate teams can tap into Ripple’s cross-border payment network that operates around the clock. They also gain entry to the global repo market via Ripple Prime’s brokerage services.
GTreasury’s command center will integrate with Ripple’s existing technology. This setup allows companies to manage liquidity across both conventional and digital assets.
The combination addresses demand for faster settlement times in high-value corporate transactions.
Ripple noted the acquisition expands its reach into enterprise finance. Large corporations need tools that handle complex treasury operations while enabling instant money movement. The deal delivers both capabilities under one roof.
Three Deals Complete Ripple’s Infrastructure Build
Rail joined Ripple in a $200 million transaction focused on stablecoin payments and virtual accounts. The addition removes the need for businesses to hold crypto directly or maintain specialized bank accounts.
Companies can now execute cross-border transactions through Ripple’s API using Rail’s automated routing system.
Palisade brings wallet-as-a-service technology that handles high-frequency transactions. The platform uses multi-party computation and provisions wallets at scale. It will power use cases like subscription payments and rapid fund collection.
The tech extends Ripple Custody beyond banks to serve fintechs and crypto-native firms.
Ripple Prime, previously Hidden Road, adds institutional-grade prime brokerage and clearing. The service lets institutional clients trade major digital assets including XRP and RLUSD through over-the-counter channels.
Business at Ripple Prime has tripled since the acquisition announcement.
Each acquisition fills a specific gap in Ripple’s service lineup. Palisade handles custody and fast transactions. Rail manages payment flows and virtual accounts. GTreasury oversees corporate finance operations. Ripple Prime provides trading infrastructure and institutional liquidity.
The combined platform targets enterprises that want digital asset capabilities without overhauling existing systems.
Ripple’s setup connects traditional finance rails with blockchain-based settlement. Companies gain access to 24/7 payment processing and real-time capital optimization through the unified interface.
