Ripple’s Donations Hit $200 Million! But What’s the Catch?

by

Well, it’s official. Ripple has now donated a whopping $200 million since 2018! Because, you know, who doesn’t love a good donation to make them feel like a corporate hero? 🙄

But it’s not all about looking good on paper, oh no. These donations have been making waves (pun intended) by pushing forward financial inclusion. How, you ask? With all these pilot programs with GOS and some “lucky” startups that are definitely not rolling in cash. 💸

And get this: Ripple has managed to support blockchain and crypto research at over 60 universities around the world! Yes, that’s right—sixty. Because if there’s one thing the world needs, it’s more research into the digital void of crypto. 🎓

They didn’t stop there, of course. In their infinite wisdom, they’ve funded 183 scholarships and fellowships. Let’s be real, that’s probably the least they can do for all the crypto madness they’ve caused. 😂

But wait—there’s more! Last year, Ripple’s University Blockchain Research Initiative (UBRI) added even more universities from places like Taiwan, Germany, and South Korea. Because when you want to make global headlines, you better have international reach, right? 🌍

Ripple, in its infinite modesty, says, “We are indebted to our nonprofit and academic partners for their subject matter expertise and collaborative enterprise.” Aww, so humble. 🙃
