Jefferies releases a report on gold accumulation among nations and non-sovereign entities.
64-year-old Wall Street firm flags unusual gold accumulation
Jefferies releases a report on gold accumulation among nations and non-sovereign entities.

Founded in 1962, the New York-based investment bank Jefferies advised governments, corporations, and institutional investors through inflation cycles, commodity booms, and financial crises.

That history is what makes its latest observation stand out.

In a recent report, Jefferies analysts noted an unexpected surge in physical gold buying by a non-sovereign entity, at a pace that now rivals national central banks.
According to the analysts, roughly 32 tonnes of physical gold were accumulated in late 2025 and January 2026 alone, placing the buyer among the most aggressive purchasers of bullion globally during that period. Only Brazil and Poland, both sovereign nations, were estimated to have bought more over the same timeframe.
In total, Jefferies estimates the entity now controls at least 148 tonnes of gold, valued at approximately $23 billion, enough to rank within the top 30 gold holders worldwide, surpassing several mid-sized countries.

Why the buying matters now
Gold has been in a historic rally, recently crossing $5,500 per ounce and rising nearly 50% since September, driven by central bank demand, rising long-term bond yields, and growing efforts to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar.
Jefferies analysts framed the accumulation as part of a broader shift in how large pools of capital are positioning for long-term monetary uncertainty.

At this scale, gold purchases are no longer about short-term hedging. They signal balance-sheet strategy.

Ripple and XRPL developers say recent mainnet upgrades and upcoming features position the XRP Ledger as a hub for regulated, real-world finance.
What to know:
Ripple and XRPL contributors are positioning the XRP Ledger as an institutional DeFi platform by combining compliance-focused infrastructure with XRP’s role as a settlement and bridge asset.
New and upcoming features, including permissioned domains, credential-based access, privacy-preserving transfers, and the XLS-65/66 lending protocol, are designed to meet regulatory and risk-management requirements for on-chain credit and payments.
An EVM sidechain bridged via Axelar aims to attract Solidity developers by offering familiar tooling while tapping XRPL’s liquidity, identity features, and XRP’s utility in collateral, reserves and fee-driven burn mechanics.
Ripple and XRPL contributors have outlined a growing set of “institutional DeFi” building blocks on the XRP Ledger that aim to make the network viable for regulated financial activity, per a Thursday blog.

XRP’s utility as a settlement and bridge asset is being highlighted as central to that infrastructure, with usecases ranging from from forex and stablecoin rails to tokenized collateral and native lending markets.
The latest roadmap emphasizes features already live — such as multi-purpose token standards (MPT), permissioned domains with compliance tooling, credential-backed access and batch transactions — alongside upcoming releases that extend XRPL into credit markets and privacy-preserving workflows.

Unlike many smart contract chains that bolt on compliance after the fact, XRPL’s approach has been to embed identity and control primitives at the protocol layer.
Permissioned domains and credentials allow markets to gate participation by verified entities, a requirement institutions often cite as a barrier to onchain integration.

On the payments and FX side, XRP’s role as an auto-bridge between assets continues to be cited as a demand driver, with stablecoin corridors and remittance flows adding to onchain volume and fee activity. Token escrows and object reserves denominated in XRP further tie network usage back to the native asset.

Looking ahead, the introduction of XLS-65/66 — the XRPL lending protocol — is slated to offer pooled and underwritten credit on ledger without entirely offloading risk logic onchain.

Single asset vaults, fixed-term lending and optional permissioning tools are designed to feel familiar to institutional risk managers while operating in an onchain settlement context.

Privacy features like confidential transfers for MPTs, arriving in the first quarter, aim to satisfy enterprise and regulatory expectations around transaction-level anonymity and controlled disclosure.

Critics have long pointed to XRPL’s lack of EVM-style programmability as a hindrance. The new EVM sidechain — bridged via the Axelar network — is meant to address this by letting Solidity developers tap into XRPL liquidity and identity features while accessing familiar tooling.
