Brazil is rocketing into the future of finance as institutional tokenization explodes, with VERT Capital’s latest on-chain credit milestone on the XRP Ledger signaling that regulated digital assets are going mainstream across Latin America’s largest economy.
Brazil’s Blockchain Finance Push Gains Steam With VERT Capital’s XRP Ledger Expansion
Brazil’s growing adoption of blockchain-based credit instruments is signaling a broader shift toward regulated, tokenized finance. Ripple shared an insight on Oct. 24 emphasizing that structured-credit manager VERT Capital has expanded its operations on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) and XRPL EVM Sidechain.
Ripple stated:
Just three months after launching its first on-chain structured credit platform on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) and XRPL EVM Sidechain, VERT Capital has completed its second tokenized transaction in partnership with Ripple.
The achievement highlights Brazil’s transition from experimentation to institutional adoption of digital financial infrastructure.
“The new issuance expands the platform’s scope and brings a new class of regulated credit on-chain, showing that tokenization in Brazil is no longer an experiment, but an emerging market reality,” Ripple noted. VERT’s latest operation represents Brazil’s first tokenized FIDC backed by public-pension receivables, a secure asset class tied to government pension payments.
The fund currently manages more than BRL 200 million (about $40 million) in assets and is projected to grow to BRL 1 billion as institutional participation increases. Partnering with fintech firm BYX, VERT plans to tokenize additional funds by year-end, further integrating structured-credit origination and blockchain-based asset management.
Ripple also underscored how automation and compliance coexist in VERT’s model:
Using the XRPL and its EVM Sidechain, VERT’s digital-credit platform records lifecycle events, documentation, and payments directly on-chain, enabling near-real-time auditability while complying fully with Brazilian securities regulations.
By leveraging public blockchain infrastructure within the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission’s LEAP regulatory initiative, Ripple and VERT are demonstrating how transparency, supervision, and interoperability can coexist in Brazil’s emerging digital capital markets.

XRP Surges 24,602% Despite Ripple's Ongoing Sales — Debate Reignites Over Token Dump Claims
Viral thread claims Ripple sells XRP monthly to fund operations and dilute holders. It cites 100B total supply, 55B locked, 1B/month release, 70–80% relocked, and 200–300M XRP for ops (~$400M/mo); critics say price tracks Bitcoin and escrow dilution fades.
Abstract: The article examines claims that Ripple systematically sells XRP to fund operations, detailing the tokenomics (100B XRP, 55B in escrow with 1B/mo release and relocking, 200–300M for ops) and presenting counterarguments that XRP price movements align more with Bitcoin, not ongoing sales, while escrow shrinkage reduces future dilution and XRP has posted large gains since inception.
