XRP Ledger Used by Nasdaq-Listed Pharma Distributor to Power Payment System for Pharmacies

Big Pharma meets blockchain—and this time, it's not just hype.


XRP Ledger Cuts Through Legacy Payment Chaos

A major Nasdaq-listed pharmaceutical distributor just sidelined traditional banking rails, deploying Ripple’s XRP Ledger to streamline payments for thousands of pharmacies. No more waiting days for settlements—transactions now clear in seconds.


Why This Stings Traditional Finance

Banks and SWIFT just lost another client to crypto infrastructure. The move exposes the sluggishness of legacy systems—while adding real-world utility to XRP’s often-debated tokenomics. (Take that, SEC.)


The Bottom Line

Another brick in the wall of institutional crypto adoption. Next stop? Wall Street analysts pretending they ‘saw this coming’ all along.
