🤝 Ripple x K-Bank Partnership — But $XRP Still Stuck Below $1.45
South Korea’s K-Bank just signed a major partnership with Ripple to test blockchain-based international transfers 🌍💸.
The deal was signed in Seoul by K-Bank CEO Choi Woo-hyung and Ripple Asia-Pacific head Fiona Murray.📝
🔹 What’s being tested?
They’re trialing Ripple’s Palisade wallet to send money to places like the UAE and Thailand — faster, cheaper, and with full transparency.
Unlike traditional SWIFT transfers that take days and involve multiple banks, on-chain transfers settle in minutes with lower fees.🌐
🔹 Why now?
K-Bank is preparing for South Korea’s upcoming Digital Asset Basic Act.
🏦 The bank also holds a huge advantage as the exclusive banking partner for Upbit, helping its user base explode from 2M to 15M in just five years.
📊 But XRP’s Price?
XRP tried — again — to break above $1.45, and for the fourth time it failed. Support remains at $1.40, with stronger resistance at $1.44–$1.46 and $1.50+.
Historically, a fifth attempt often leads to a breakout… we’ll see.👊
real-world banking tests like this — it feels like crypto is finally maturing.
