The XRPL ecosystem is actively pushing real-world asset tokenization. A notable example: Meld Gold brought tokenized gold and silver onto the ledger in 2024, with each token backed by exactly 1 gram of physical metal stored in established vault facilities. This demonstrates how Ripple's infrastructure supports custody and RWA integration at scale. The ability to trade tangible commodities through blockchain opens new possibilities for liquidity and accessibility in precious metals markets.
