Ripple has officially announced XRP Community Day 2026, a global virtual event set to take place on February 11 and 12, bringing together XRP holders, developers, institutions, and Ripple leadership from across EMEA, the Americas, and APAC. The event will be hosted via live X Spaces on Ripple’s official account and will focus on XRP’s expanding real-world use cases and the evolution of the XRPL ecosystem.

According to Ripple, XRP Community Day 2026 builds on last year’s inaugural event with a stronger emphasis on how XRP is being used today and where it is headed next. Sessions throughout the event will cover regulated financial products, exchange-traded products, wrapped XRP, DeFi applications, tokenization, and onchain infrastructure developments planned for 2026.

Ripple confirmed that senior leadership, including CEO Brad Garlinghouse and President Monica Long, will participate alongside ecosystem partners, financial institutions, and community builders. The goal of the event is to align the global XRP ecosystem around priorities, highlight progress, and provide clarity on XRP’s role within regulated financial markets.

The EMEA session will open with a macro-level discussion on XRP in capital markets led by Garlinghouse, followed by a tokenized finance announcement from RippleX and a panel focused on funding opportunities for XRPL projects. Later sessions will examine the growth of regulated XRP investment products, including ETFs and ETPs, with participation from firms such as Grayscale and Bitnomial. The EMEA block will also feature an XRP Innovation Spotlight highlighting active projects building real utility on XRPL.

The Americas session will introduce the new Executive Director of the XRPL Foundation and provide updates on governance, grants, and ecosystem support. Technical discussions will cover XRPL features that are already live and those coming next, including programmability, compliance tooling, privacy enhancements, and the native lending protocol. The session will conclude with Monica Long outlining Ripple’s 2026 priorities and explaining why XRP remains central to Ripple’s business strategy.

APAC sessions will focus on cross-chain expansion and stablecoin integration. One discussion will explore wrapped XRP and its use across other blockchain networks, including Solana, while another will examine how stablecoins and XRP work together in modern payment and settlement systems. The event will close with a community Q&A featuring David Schwartz, who will address adoption progress and the future direction of XRP use cases.

XRP Community Day 2026 will be held on February 11 for EMEA and the Americas, and February 12 for APAC. Participants can RSVP via Luma to receive reminders and updates, with recordings made available afterward through Ripple’s official channels.

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.

UK crypto holders brace for FCA’s expanded regulatory reach

UK crypto holders brace for FCA’s expanded regulatory reach

The post UK crypto holders brace for FCA’s expanded regulatory reach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. British crypto holders may soon face a very different landscape as the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) moves to expand its regulatory reach in the industry. A new consultation paper outlines how the watchdog intends to apply its rulebook to crypto firms, shaping everything from asset safeguarding to trading platform operation. According to the financial regulator, these proposals would translate into clearer protections for retail investors and stricter oversight of crypto firms. UK FCA plans Until now, UK crypto users mostly encountered the FCA through rules on promotions and anti-money laundering checks. The consultation paper goes much further. It proposes direct oversight of stablecoin issuers, custodians, and crypto-asset trading platforms (CATPs). For investors, that means the wallets, exchanges, and coins they rely on could soon be subject to the same governance and resilience standards as traditional financial institutions. The regulator has also clarified that firms need official authorization before serving customers. This condition should, in theory, reduce the risk of sudden platform failures or unclear accountability. David Geale, the FCA’s executive director of payments and digital finance, said the proposals are designed to strike a balance between innovation and protection. He explained: “We want to develop a sustainable and competitive crypto sector – balancing innovation, market integrity and trust.” Geale noted that while the rules will not eliminate investment risks, they will create consistent standards, helping consumers understand what to expect from registered firms. Why does this matter for crypto holders? The UK regulatory framework shift would provide safer custody of assets, better disclosure of risks, and clearer recourse if something goes wrong. However, the regulator was also frank in its submission, arguing that no rulebook can eliminate the volatility or inherent risks of holding digital assets. Instead, the focus is on ensuring that when consumers choose to invest, they do…
