Ripple has been teaming up with more and more partners recently, signing up more big banks to its RippleNet. It has been rebranding its xRapid as On-Demand Liquidity. It has acquired MoneyGram and had talks with Western Union. SWIFT remains its biggest rival.

Now, the community is discussing the most recent report about SWIFT actually testing Ripple’s technology for instant payments and finding it satisfactory regarding speed and low price.

SWIFT approves of Ripple technology but says ‘no’ for now

Arab Times Online has mentioned that SWIFT has been trialing Ripple’s blockchain-powered abilities to conduct transnational payments and found that the crypto giant can indeed do that fast and cheap.

Nevertheless, SWIFT has concluded that Ripple technology is not yet ready to be used on a wide scale.
