Ripple: Best Workplace EVER?! 🤑

by

Hark! Once again, that colossus of crypto, Ripple Labs, doth find itself lauded as a most excellent place for employment, according to the latest pronouncements of Fortune magazine. ‘Tis writ in a tweet, dispatched earlier this day, that they grace the list of top workplaces in the fair Bay Area of these United States. Quelle surprise! 😮

Upon this esteemed roll call, one spies such luminaries as Nvidia, Adobe Inc., Salesforce, Visa, HP Inc., Samsara, Databricks, and sundry others. “Gramercy for this recognition,” quoth Ripple’s missive, “and a thousand thanks to our noble band of Ripplers!” One might suspect a touch of self-congratulation, eh? 😉

Best in the Bay! We are proud to announce that @Ripple is being recognized as one of @FortuneMagazine’s best Workplaces in the Bay Area.

Thank you for the recognition, and big thanks to our team of Ripplers!

Amongst the lesser ranks of small and middling workplaces, Ripple occupies the 41st position out of a grand total of 75. Last year, in the year of our Lord 2024, Fortune placed them a more impressive 32nd out of 100. Methinks their star doth wane slightly! 🤔

Ripple donates \$5 billion for blockchain innovation in APAC

In a blog post recently unleashed upon the world, Ripple proclaims its redoubled commitment to blockchain innovation in the Asia-Pacific region (APAC), having bestowed a princely sum of more than \$5 million through its University Blockchain Research Initiative (UBRI). A pittance, some might say, for such a grand endeavor! 🤨

Forsooth, APAC is now a global hub for digital finance, teeming with neobanks like fleas on a dog. For over seven years, UBRI hath been nurturing the blockchain builders, entrepreneurs, and researchers of tomorrow. One hopes they are not all merely chasing fool’s gold! 🤡

Behold! Ripple’s blockchain-powered payment solutions have processed over \$30 billion in transnational payments per annum, surpassing those antiquated systems such as SWIFT, offering solutions both faster and cheaper. Or so they claim! 🤥

Ripple’s UBRI program aids numerous universities in APAC to explore novel solutions that enhance the adoption and interoperability of blockchain, both locally and internationally. Thus, Ripple doth fancy itself a creator of new financial systems in APAC. A noble ambition, if somewhat grandiose! 😇
