The XRP Ledger Foundation, established in September 2020, initially aims to support the growth and adoption of XRP Ledger. With $6.5 million in funding support from three original projects, the main focus is on improving infrastructure and establishing an XRP Community Fund to drive adoption among users and developers.
These initial priorities included validator coordination, independence, and basic ecosystem management. At Apex 2025, foundation representatives explained that these initial priorities have evolved.
The current leadership emphasizes the need for strong governance structures, transparent tools, and long-term infrastructure maintenance. The updated strategy also emphasizes the importance of retaining key actors in maintaining ledger performance and openness.

The XRP ledger has its roots in 2012, created by software engineers David Schwartz, Jed McCaleb, and Arthur Britto. The project initially operated under different names such as Newcoin and Opencoin, before becoming Ripple Labs and then Ripple in 2015.
These early foundations became the basis for what later became decentralized ledgers used in various financial applications. Ripple has also been involved in several legal proceedings. In 2018, investor Ryan Coffey filed a lawsuit claiming that the sale of Ripple (XRP) violated US securities laws, but the case was dismissed by a California court.
More significantly, in December 2020, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sued Ripple to classify Ripple (XRP) as a security. In August 2024, a New York court determined that Ripple (XRP) was not a security in programmatic sales, but institutional sales were illegal, and Ripple was fined $125 million. In March 2025, the SEC stopped the appeal of the decision.
