Ripple has expanded into stock trading through the official launch of a Delta One business under its institutional brokerage unit, Ripple Prime, marking its first move into equities. The launch broadens Ripple’s offering for institutional investors across traditional finance and digital assets. The Delta One product is designed to give institutional clients a unified trading channel spanning listed stocks, indexes, and digital assets. The new service will allow hedge funds, market makers, ETF issuers, and other institutional clients to execute total return swaps tied to U.S.-listed equities, indexes, and digital assets.
