2024: A Challenging Time for XRP amidst Ripple's Global Expansion
Despite the ongoing challenges with the performance of XRP$0.620 -1.68% in 2024, Ripple continues its global expansion through the turbulence of its US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) trial. Determined to maintain its growth trajectory, the company has a keen interest in expanding its presences in countries including the UK, India, and Canada. Despite a series of previous appointments sparking rumors of a potential Ripple Initial Public Offering (IPO), the company has publicly expressed its reluctance. Current events, especially the SEC trial, remain the most significant factor affecting Ripple Labs.
Ripple Labs: Pursuing Global Expansion in India, the UK, and Canada
As the new year unfolds, XRP's performance has not met initial expectations. However, the potential for the asset's future performance is undeniable. Despite facing a list of impending legal proceedings, the company has managed to keep its focus on establishing an international presence.
Ripple's global expansion campaign remains undeterred by the ongoing SEC lawsuit. Ripple Labs announced a recruitment drive for several new positions on X (formerly Twitter). The company is looking for a Senior Product Manager for DeFi for its London branch, a Senior Software Engineer for its Bangalore branch, and a Senior Software Engineer for its Toronto branch.
Ripple's Recruitment Drive: Building a World Without Economic Borders
This recent recruitment follows a series of hires that took place in September 2023, where they added over 55 people across diverse fields such as Corporate Development, Engineering, and Global Operations. The emphasis on growth outside the United States is evident, particularly given the ongoing legal complications with American regulators threatening its growth prospects within the country.
Subsequent to its robust hiring spree, the company started seeking a Shareholder Communications Senior Manager, prompting speculation about a possible Initial Public Offering (IPO). However, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse clarified that going public is not an immediate priority for the firm.
Upcoming SEC Trial Amid Ripple's Global Expansion
This international expansion effort takes place just a few months before the slated trial against the SEC. In 2023, the regulator sustained significant losses in its prolonged legal conflict. A court decision determined that XRP sales on the secondary market did not constitute investment contracts. Following this, Garlinghouse and Executive Chairman Chris Larson were cleared of accusations brought against them by the regulator.
