In a recent Ripple On-Chain Economy episode, former central banker Marius Jurgilas, CEO of Axiology, highlighted how regulated blockchain infrastructure on XRP Ledger (XRPL) is transforming capital markets by compressing complex intermediaries into a single compliant layer. Axiology's institutional-grade platform enables tokenized bond issuance and settlement under EU DLT licensing, aiming to streamline processes like direct government bond purchases. Separately, Bitwise and VanEck updated S-1 filings for XRP spot ETFs, with analysts suggesting potential launches this month, including Canary's Nov. 13 target pending approval.
