It is noteworthy that all large XRP transfers made by Ripple are usually related to the company’s On-Demand Liquidity service. This solution uses XRP as a bridge currency for cross-border settlements. Recently, demand for the service has skyrocketed, with financial institutions leveraging the solution for their settlement needs.
