Ripple Announces XRP Community Day 2026 With Focus on ETFs, Tokenization, and Regulated Finance
Ripple has officially announced XRP Community Day 2026, a global virtual event set to take place on February 11 and 12, bringing together XRP holders, developers, institutions, and Ripple leadership from across EMEA, the Americas, and APAC. The event will be hosted via live X Spaces on Ripple’s official account and will focus on XRP’s expanding real-world use cases and the evolution of the XRPL ecosystem.
According to Ripple, XRP Community Day 2026 builds on last year’s inaugural event with a stronger emphasis on how XRP is being used today and where it is headed next. Sessions throughout the event will cover regulated financial products, exchange-traded products, wrapped XRP, DeFi applications, tokenization, and onchain infrastructure developments planned for 2026.
Ripple confirmed that senior leadership, including CEO Brad Garlinghouse and President Monica Long, will participate alongside ecosystem partners, financial institutions, and community builders. The goal of the event is to align the global XRP ecosystem around priorities, highlight progress, and provide clarity on XRP’s role within regulated financial markets.
The EMEA session will open with a macro-level discussion on XRP in capital markets led by Garlinghouse, followed by a tokenized finance announcement from RippleX and a panel focused on funding opportunities for XRPL projects. Later sessions will examine the growth of regulated XRP investment products, including ETFs and ETPs, with participation from firms such as Grayscale and Bitnomial. The EMEA block will also feature an XRP Innovation Spotlight highlighting active projects building real utility on XRPL.
The Americas session will introduce the new Executive Director of the XRPL Foundation and provide updates on governance, grants, and ecosystem support. Technical discussions will cover XRPL features that are already live and those coming next, including programmability, compliance tooling, privacy enhancements, and the native lending protocol. The session will conclude with Monica Long outlining Ripple’s 2026 priorities and explaining why XRP remains central to Ripple’s business strategy.
APAC sessions will focus on cross-chain expansion and stablecoin integration. One discussion will explore wrapped XRP and its use across other blockchain networks, including Solana, while another will examine how stablecoins and XRP work together in modern payment and settlement systems. The event will close with a community Q&A featuring David Schwartz, who will address adoption progress and the future direction of XRP use cases.
XRP Community Day 2026 will be held on February 11 for EMEA and the Americas, and February 12 for APAC. Participants can RSVP via Luma to receive reminders and updates, with recordings made available afterward through Ripple’s official channels.
