Asheesh Birla, the CEO of the largest XRP treasury company, Evernorth, has explained what his company is focused on, even as they continue to accumulate more XRP. Birla also explained what makes XRP stand out from other crypto assets in the market. 

What The XRP Treasury Company Evernorth Does 

During an interview on Paul Barron’s Podcast, Birla explained how his company’s approach differs from that of other digital asset treasury companies. He noted that the XRP treasury company helps grow the XRP ecosystem by offering both technical and financial support. The Evernorth CEO highlighted his background in creating products, which enables him and his company to innovate in the DeFi landscape. 

Furthermore, in addition to building products in the XRP ecosystem, the CEO of the XRP treasury company also mentioned that they deploy capital to earn yields through DeFi protocols on the network. As such, he believes that his company stands out from other digital asset treasury companies, since most other DATs focus solely on providing investors with exposure to crypto assets. 

Meanwhile, the CEO of the XRP treasury company stated that, in the long run, Wall Street will reward those who build in the ecosystem and provide yields to investors at the same time. It is worth mentioning that Evernorth just partnered with Doppler to advance institutional liquidity and treasury use cases on the XRP Ledger. Both firms are also exploring structured frameworks for deploying XRP at scale. 

Evernorth is backed by Ripple, which contributed some of its XRP holdings to kickstart the company’s treasury. Birla also praised Ripple, while noting how the company’s acquisitions last year will help push XRP’s institutional adoption. He also highlighted the uniqueness of the XRP Ledger (XRPL), stating that it is well-positioned to meet the DeFi needs of institutional investors. 

Future Plans For Evernorth

Evernorth’s CEO stated that his XRP treasury company plans to build more partnerships, even as it seeks to extend its business model beyond generating yields from DeFi protocols. He hinted that they are already looking to partner with some XRP stakeholders in Japan and South Korea. His company is also working closely with XRP Ledger developers. 

Birla noted that these developers are currently working on institutional lending on the XRP Ledger, and he believes his company could help by deploying capital and generating yields. Based on their roadmap, the Evernorth CEO is confident his company will remain the leading XRP treasury for the foreseeable future. Meanwhile, he predicted that companies with the expertise to build in these crypto ecosystems will be the ones that will stand the test of time, even as he expects some DATs to fail. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.08, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
