The $4 Billion Shopping Spree Everyone's Ignoring
You know what Ripple's been doing while XRP holders stare at their screens?
Going on an absolute acquisition rampage.
$4 billion spent in 2025 alone.
Not on random startups. On the actual plumbing of institutional finance.
Here's what they bought:
$1.25 billion for Hidden Road (now Ripple Prime) - a prime brokerage firm
$200 million for Rail - stablecoin payments platform
$1 billion for G Treasury - treasury management software used by Fortune 500 companies
And just this week? Palisade, a crypto custody firm.
This isn't "partnership" talk anymore.
Ripple is BUYING the old guard of finance outright.
They're not asking for a seat at the table. They're buying the entire restaurant.
And here's the kicker:
The price barely moved on any of these announcements.
Every. Single. One. Got sold off immediately.
It's the most frustrating case of "sell the news" I've ever seen.
But here's what matters: Ripple is building the infrastructure for a future where XRP powers institutional finance.
The market just hasn't caught up yet.
