Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse confirmed that the company is seeking a national banking charter, to enhance its regulatory compliance. Garlinghouse also noted that Standard Custody, a Ripple subsidiary, applied for a Fed Master Account. As a result, Standard Custody will hold $RLUSD reserves directly with the Fed. “Ripple always has and will continue to build trusted, battle-tested, and secure infrastructure.
