XRP is different from regular money because it is not controlled by any government or bank. Instead, it runs on a network called the XRP Ledger (XRPL). XRP is the native token of that the
While Ripple created XRP, and holds a large amount of XRP, they don't control the XRP Ledger. The XRP Ledger is decentralized, meaning it's not controlled by any single entity.

Why the XRP Ledger is better than existing systems like SWIFT
XRP is superior to the SWIFT system for several reasons.
-Faster transactions: XRP can be used to settle payments in 3 to 5 seconds, while SWIFT can take up to 5 business days.
-Lower costs: XRP has a very low transaction fee of 0.0001 XRP, while SWIFT charges a percentage of the transaction value, which can be very expensive for large amounts.
-Greater transparency: XRP uses a distributed ledger that records every transaction and can be verified by anyone, while SWIFT relies on a network of intermediaries that can cause delays, errors, and fraud.
-Higher scalability: XRP can handle thousands of transactions per second, while SWIFT has a limited capacity and can face congestion and downtime.
Ripple legal dramas
Ripple has had some with regulators in the USA.
The drama began in late 2020 when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Ripple with selling unregistered securities.
After years of litigation, on July 13, 2023, a federal judge handed the company a partial victory by ruling that XRP sales on public crypto exchanges were not offers of securities under the law.
On the 8th August 2024, a federal judge ordered Ripple Labs to pay a $125 million civil penalty in the long-running case brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The judge denied the SEC's request for a penalty of $2 billion.
Following the ruling, the value of the XRP token rose significantly.
