XRP has gained a dedicated official account on X, giving the asset its own presence on the platform more than a decade after the XRP Ledger launched in 2012.

The @XRP account published its first post Oct. 19 ET (Oct. 19 UTC). Its profile lists Ripple and the XRP Ledger Foundation as joint managers.

XRP is the native token of the XRP Ledger, also known as XRPL. The account’s debut comes more than a decade after the network went live.
