🚀 Institutional crypto adoption split between expanding settlement rails and cautious portfolio flows. Ripple announced two capital-markets partnerships on Oct. 14: DriveWealth will integrate RLUSD on XRP Ledger for European brokerage settlement alongside Ripple Payments and custody, while Korea’s Meritz Securities will explore Ripple Custody and tokenization. That puts $XRP at the center of new regulated-market infrastructure. At the same time, U.S. spot funds recorded net outflows of 261.4 million dollars from $BTC products and 129.5 million dollars from $ETH products, showing infrastructure adoption advancing even as institutional risk appetite stays defensive. #TrendingTopic #BTC #HotTrends #solana #altcoins
