🚨 A $567B asset manager just handed Ripple a $200M war chest. The institutionalization of crypto just hit a new level.
Neuberger Berman didn't send a tweet of support.
They didn't buy a small bag.
They extended a $200M debt facility the kind of move you make when you're building infrastructure, not speculating.
This is Wall Street's oldest money legitimizing crypto margin trading at scale.
Ripple Prime now has the firepower to expand client trading across equities, fixed income and crypto all under one unified financial rail.
Read that again. Equities. Fixed income. Crypto. Together.
That's not a crypto company trying to break into finance. That's traditional finance pulling crypto into its core operating stack.
Neuberger Berman has been managing institutional money since 1939. They survived every crash, every crisis, every cycle. And in 2025 they decided crypto margin trading was worth $200M of their conviction.
The signal here isn't the dollar amount.
It's who is writing the check.
When $567B in AUM moves even slightly in your direction, the rest of institutional finance takes notice. That's how the dominoes start falling.
Ripple has been building through lawsuits, bear markets, and FUD for years.
Now the establishment is funding the expansion. 📈🔥
