C1, which focuses on digital assets and blockchain technology, did not announce the extent of the investment or other financial terms.    <br><a href="https://www.digitaltransactions.net/finzly-moves-to-support-stablecoins-while-ripple-acquires-stablecoin-platform-rail/" data-type="post" data-id="1329820"><strong>Ripple</strong></a> is well-known in payments for its XRP ledger, a decentralized blockchain aimed at processing payments fast and at low cost. For settlement, Ripple relies on its RLUSD stablecoin. &#8220;Ripple’s technology and international reach fit directly with our strategy to support core infrastructure and institutional progress in blockchain finance,&#8221; said Elliot Han, chief investment officer at C1 Fund Inc., in a statement.<div class="g g-4"><div class="g-dyn a-657 c-1"><div><a class="gofollow" data-track="NjU3LDQsMSw2MA==" href="https://x.com/DTPaymentNews" target="_blank"><img width="728" height="90" src="https://v6r2p5t5.delivery.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Twitter_2023-Web-top-banner.jpg.webp" /></a></div></div></div>    <br>C1, based in Palo Alto, Calif., concentrates on investments in companies involved in increasing adoption of digital assets.   <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="alignright size-full"><img decoding="async" width="200" height="54" src="https://v6r2p5t5.delivery.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/ripple_logo_small.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-16163" srcset="https://v6r2p5t5.delivery.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/ripple_logo_small.jpg 200w, https://v6r2p5t5.delivery.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/ripple_logo_small-150x41.jpg 150w" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" /></figure></div>   <br>Ripple has been keen to keep crypto transaction processing at a low cost to users. It created the XRP ledger in 2012 with a view toward fast settlement while processing as many as 1,500 transactions per second, with fees in fractions of a penny per transaction.    <br>In related news, BIT Mining Ltd., a company that provides technology for cryptocurrency processing, said it is changing its name to SOLAI Ltd. The change represents a shift in focus at the company from investing in cryptocurrency mining to technology incorporating artificial intelligence for blockchain processing, the company says.    <br>&nbsp;“We see the next wave of innovation emerging where intelligent systems connect with decentralized infrastructure — enabling faster, safer, and more efficient exchange of information and value,” says Bo Yu, chairman of BIT Mining, in a statement.                                                         <br><span class="tie-date"><i class="fa fa-clock-o"></i>October 10, 2025</span><br><span class="tie-date"><i class="fa fa-clock-o"></i>October 10, 2025</span><br><span class="tie-date"><i class="fa fa-clock-o"></i>October 9, 2025</span><br>Action in the payments industry on stablecoin plans appears to be perking up since President &hellip;<br><ul class="wpp-list"> <li class=""><a href="https://www.digitaltransactions.net/customer-satisfaction-and-card-usage-drop-when-sellers-levy-credit-card-surcharges-says-j-d-power/" title="Customer Satisfaction And Card Usage Drop When Sellers Levy Credit Card Surcharges, Says J.D.
