Ripple Takes Minority Stake in TJM to Build Regulated Institutional Crypto Access

The move reinforces Ripple’s infrastructure-first strategy focused on prime-style services for large investors.

Overview

Ripple will support TJM’s trading and clearing operations under the new partnership.
TJM, described as a U.S.-regulated broker-dealer, plans to introduce digital-asset trading for clients in the coming months.
The tie-up expands Ripple Prime, which offers trading, financing and collateral tools for hedge funds, asset managers and family offices.
Financial terms of Ripple’s minority investment were not disclosed.
The initiative reflects a broader shift toward regulated intermediaries and predictable settlement rather than exchange-driven speculation.
