Midas Launches mXRP, DeFi-Compatible XRP Yield Token on XRPL EVM

Axelar connectivity enables multi‑chain reach under restrictions in key jurisdictions.

Overview

  • mXRP is live as a transferable ERC‑20 certificate on the XRPL EVM, minted by depositing XRP to create a DeFi‑native yield asset.
  • The product targets a 6–8% base yield paid in XRP via market‑neutral strategies, with Hyperithm serving as risk curator and manager.
  • Axelar supplies cross‑chain infrastructure that makes mXRP composable across more than 80 networks and usable in lending and liquidity protocols.
  • Axelar’s co‑founder characterizes the design as a “perpetual buyer” of XRP, with a projection that $10 billion in AUM could imply roughly $700 million in annual XRP purchases, which remains a scenario rather than a guarantee.
  • Access is unavailable in the U.S., U.K., and sanctioned regions, and typical DeFi, cross‑chain, counterparty, and regulatory risks still apply despite audited contracts.
