Ripple Prime adds more than 100 markets

Ripple said on October 15, 2026, that Ripple Prime had launched perpetual swaps referencing more than 100 markets across equities, equity indexes, exchange-traded funds, metals, energy and foreign exchange. A perpetual swap is a derivative contract without a fixed expiration date. According to Ripple, the contracts trade and settle around the clock and reference perpetual futures listed by Trade.xyz on Hyperliquid.

Ripple Prime acts as principal for the transactions, so eligible institutions access the products through the brokerage service rather than trading directly on the decentralized venue. Ripple said Virtu is among the institutional clients using the offering, and clients can post Ripple USD as collateral. The service operates through Ripple Prime's CIV BVI license, according to Ripple.
