Cardano’s Lace Wallet Adds XRP Integration by Late 2025
Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson has confirmed that Ripple’s XRP integration into the multi-chain Lace wallet is scheduled for late 2025.
The XRP integration follows technical discussions with Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and will require UI updates, XRP Ledger protocol adapters, and security audits ahead of a staged rollout.
The move aims to boost interoperability and liquidity between Cardano’s ADA and XRP. Hoskinson also proposed joint events with XRP community leaders, including attorney John Deaton, to foster cross-chain collaboration.
Traders should update their Lace wallet, secure seed phrases, and monitor official channels for activation details and potential impacts on ADA and XRP markets.
Bullish
The announcement of XRP integration into Cardano’s Lace wallet is likely bullish for XRP and ADA. In the short term, the news could trigger increased trading activity as investors respond to the expected rise in interoperability and liquidity. Historically, announcements of wallet support and cross-chain partnerships often lead to price upticks. In the long term, seamless integration within a smart-contract-compatible environment may expand XRP’s use cases and strengthen ADA’s ecosystem, supporting sustained demand and price appreciation.
