Flare CEO says major XRPFi expansion over next six months to attract 5 billion XRP

Flare will push a major expansion of XRPFi, its XRP-based decentralised finance ecosystem, over the next six months, aiming to make XRP usable as a DeFi asset rather than only for payments. CEO Hugo Philion said Flare will become a fully programmable layer for the XRP Ledger and roll out upgrades starting in about two weeks. FXRP issuance has exceeded 150 million, and he projected up to 5 billion XRP could flow into Flare, though analysts see security checks and stablecoin liquidity as key hurdles.

Former Ripple CTO says only this would make him consider unretiring

David Schwartz, a former Ripple chief technology officer and a core developer of the XRP Ledger, named Nick Bougalis as the only reason he would consider reversing his retirement. Schwartz said his condition for returning depends on a specific person, not money or the scale of work. He retired on Jan. 1, 2026 and now serves as Ripple’s honorary CTO, providing selective advice while remaining involved in releases such as the XRPL 3.2.0 update.
