As reported by U.Today earlier, Tetragon Financial Group had led the Series-C funding round for Ripple and helped the blockchain giant raise $200 million at the end of 2019.

This pushed Ripple to the evaluation of over $10 billion and making it a decacorn.

Tetragon is headquartered in the UK, managing a $2.32-billion capital and it is the largest shareholder of Ripple.
