Ripple will leave a dent in the financial world. No doubt in my mind.

A few weeks ago, I spent some time in the Kingdom of Bahrain and discovered a nation determined to reinforce its position as a major hub for financial technology. During my time there, it was exciting to see @Ripple announce a strategic partnership with Bahrain @FinTechBay Following the announcement, I was fortunate to be able to speak to @aartinagraj from @TheNationalNews We discussed the accelerating pace of fintech adoption in Bahrain, the UAE and the wider Middle East region. This rapid growth is no accident. Jurisdictions like Bahrain and the UAE are distinguishing themselves through collaborative regulatory development. By partnering closely with our industry to develop flexible rules, they are creating environments that financial institutions and technology providers like Ripple can easily navigate, ensuring that their local economies fully benefit from the digital asset opportunity. thenationalnews.com/business…
