Ripple Brings AI-Powered Payments to XRP Ledger

Ripple has just signed a major new partnership with Stripe-owned Privy. The goal is to integrate AI-driven payment and embedded wallet solutions into the XRP Ledger (XRPL). Per Ripple's announcement, this integration lets developers build payment apps using XRP, Ripple USD (RLUSD), etc., without requiring users to manage private keys themselves. It puts a big focus on the rising field of agentic commerce, so AI agents can autonomously own funds, transact, and pay for things.
