In an official announcement on 24 May 2021, Ripple mentioned that the company is planning to enhance NFT support on the XRP Ledger. Ripple highlighted that XRPL offers several advantages including high speed and low cost.
“Minting NFTs on the XRP Ledger will enrich the experience for creators seeking new ways of monetizing their works. For developers, the XRP Ledger’s innate performance advantages — speed, low cost, and built-in royalties, make it ideally suited to drive NFT utility at scale, and without the need for Layer-2 protocols. Library support is also available to simplify NFT integrations and bypass direct XRPL development. The XRP Ledger is a decentralized, open-source blockchain,” Ripple mentioned.
Ripple collaborated with Mintable, mintNFT and VSA Partners to support NFT projects on the XRP Ledger. Following the announcement, the price of XRP jumped by more than 5%.
