Montenegro Joins Hands With Ripple To Pilot First National Digital Currency — Huge Boost to XRP?

Ripple, the digital payment network, has partnered with Montenegro to help the small Southeast European nation develop its digital currency. The country’s prime minister, Dr Dritan Abazović, tweeted about the pilot project with Ripple on January 18, 2023, which did not go unnoticed by XRP enthusiasts.

Ripple To Develop National Stablecoin For Montenegro

Montenegro has commenced the creation of a digital currency following a collaboration with the global payments company Ripple. The nation’s Prime Minister, Dr. Dritan Abazović, announced his meeting with Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and Ripple Vice President for Central Bank Engagement James Wallis via a tweet written in Bosnia.

Labavi prijevod njegove dvodijelne teme na Twitteru glasi: “A productive meeting with Ripple CEO Garlinghouse and Ripple Vice President of Central Bank Engagement James Wallis. We talked about developing a payment infrastructure that would enable greater financial accessibility and inclusion. Montenegro is open to new value and investment.”

The Montenegrin Prime Minister added that the nation is teaming up with Ripple on a pilot project for a national digital currency: “In collaboration with Ripple and the Central Bank, we have launched a pilot project to build the first digital currency or stablecoin for Montenegro,” he said.

Crna Gora je postala kandidat za članstvo u Evropskoj uniji (EU) u decembru 2010. godine, a njeni pregovori sa Briselom su otvoreni 2012. godine. U današnjem stanju, njen zahtjev tek treba da bude odobren. Bez obzira na to, euro se koristi u Crnoj Gori, iako ne kao zakonsko sredstvo plaćanja.

Da li projekat uključuje XRP?

Ripple has become increasingly active in the development of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) since pilotiranje privatnu verziju XRP Ledgera još u martu 2021. godine, pružajući platformu za centralne banke širom svijeta da bezbedno izdaju svoje digitalne valute. partnerstva sa Kraljevskom monetarnom upravom Butana i Republika Palau objavljene su mjesecima kasnije.

Blockchain firma sve jače gura u CBDC prostor, ali hoće li XRP biti dio CBDC projekata? Ovo je važno egzistencijalno pitanje. Još uvijek nije poznato u kojoj će mjeri XRP knjiga ili čak XRP kriptovaluta igrati ulogu u potencijalnoj digitalnoj valuti Crne Gore.

The SVP and MD at Ripple, Brooks Entwistle, memorably noted during a recent interview that “there are places where we can play, maybe with a sidechain to the XRP ledger. We may help with the interoperability across this, but it’s going to be different for every single central bank.”

U međuvremenu, Ripple has been busy putting to bed its long-standing legal dispute with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over whether XRP tokens were sold via an unregistered securities offering. Ripple chief Brad Garlinghouse expects the case to be concluded in the first half of 2023.

XRP se trenutno trguje na oko 0.401 dolara, prema podacima CoinMarketCap-a. Šesta po veličini kriptovaluta je danas pala za 3.05%, ali je apresirala za 16.6% u posljednjih 30 dana.

Looking ahead, we’re likely to hear more news of Ripple partnering with new countries to develop digital currency strategies. But will this unlock mainstream adoption of XRP as the majority of central banks integrate the token into their CBDCs? That much the future holds.
