Vivopower International PLC has outlined a strategy to acquire $ 100 million Ripple shares as part of a broader initiative to integrate XRP into its Bedrijfschatbox, according to an 11 August rack.
According to the statement, the investment of $ 100 million Vivopower will expose to 211 million XRP tokens, which is currently valued at around $ 696 million.
Vivopower said that it will hold both Ripple shares and XRP tokens as part of the strategy and becomes the first listed American company that offers its shareholders access to both. The dual acquisition approach enables the company to secure wrinkle shares with a discount compared to market prices.
It is important that Vivopower will gain fully legal ownership of the Ripple shares that it acquires, with its name directly registered in Ripple’s shareholders register. The company cooperates with leading preservators of digital assets such as Bitgo and Nasdaq Private Market LLC to facilitate these transactions.
Vivopower CEO Kevin Chin emphasized that this movement is in accordance with Vivopower’s long -term objective to build a robust treasury model that diversifies its participations and offers a considerably upward potential for its shareholders.
The company also noted that it will happen that Ripple shares are purchased in special vehicles (SPVs) because of the extra costs and complexities that they bring. An independent auditor will perform quarterly assessments of the Ripple shareholders of Vivopower to guarantee transparency and accountability.
Ripple’s fundraising
Vivopower’s purchase of Ripple’s share is less than a week after the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) de Blockchain company has granted an exemption from the “bad actor” designation.
The designation came from a lawsuit in 2020 in which the SEC Ripple accused of the sale of non -registered effects.
While the parties settled in May 2025, the command remained technically appropriate. The supervisor said that recent circumstances justified the remote declaration and freeing the way for Ripple to find new investments without legal barriers.
After the exemption, pro-Crypto lawyer John Deaton stated:
“Ripple can continue to raise money in the private markets. One could even claim, it is things like usual – as if the lawsuit against Ripple and the fine of $ 125 million never happened.”
