The digital asset company, Ripple, bought GTreasury for one billion dollars in 2025 to put new blockchain tech into old corporate payment systems.
According to the press release, this big move lets Ripple reach the multi-trillion-dollar world of corporate money management by mixing their digital speed with GTreasury’s expert rules. This deal aims to help major companies move cash instantly, saving money and unlocking funds that are currently stuck.
This deal is Ripple’s third major purchase this year. They already bought Hidden Road, a prime broker, and Rail, a stablecoin platform. These buys prove Ripple’s plan to connect traditional banking with fast, modern blockchain networks. The goal is to update how large companies manage their cash flow.
Ripple plans to use GTreasury’s systems to offer its blockchain structure for real-time payments to customers. The combined group will make it possible to free up locked capital in the global repo market.
This will allow money to move 24 hours a day, seven days a week, across different countries. Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple, said the deal will blend “blockchain efficiency with treasury expertise.”
Garlinghouse stated the finance world still works on “shackled systems with slow and outdated systems.” However, he believes blockchain technology can bring great improvements.
In fact, Renaat Ver Eecke, the CEO of GTreasury, called the acquisition a “watershed moment” for the financial industry. He explained that joining Ripple’s speed with their risk and compliance systems will allow corporations to “activate their capital” instead of just managing it.
GTreasury is known for its strong platforms in risk management and compliance. It brings over forty years of experience helping many of the world’s most famous brands handle their finances.
Ripple is also collaborating with Securitize to introduce its RLUSD stablecoin to institutional funds, highlighting its continued focus on digital asset finance.
The company plans to advance its work in tokenization and on-chain liquidity solutions. The deal is expected to close in the coming months, pending final regulatory approvals.
