RippleX’s Vice President James Wallis disclosed that the company has expanded by building a core ledger which can be used to mint central bank digital currencies (CBDC).

Previously, Ripple had disclosed its intentions to partner up with banks to explore CBDCs.

Previously, Ripple had posted a job listing for a technical partner manager position. The ideal candidate will play a crucial role in furthering Ripple’s engagements with Central Banks worldwide to design and guide the deployment of CBDC projects and solutions.
