Marjan Delattine, a Ripple executive, has recently assured the community that 10 major institutions in the sphere of finance that Ripple officially cooperates with are now actively using its xRapid blockchain solution, along with XRP for transnational payments.

10 partners VS 200

Unlike the xRapid solution with an actual use of XRP by merely 10 partners so far, the xCurrent platform that speeds up transnational operations is being utilized by over 200 partners.

Still, Delattine points out that the volume of XRP these 10 players are using, is growing every day.

The announcement was made during the Blockchain week summit in Paris.
