Breaking: Ripple Secures Massive Investment with $40 Billion Valuation
Ripple just pulled off one of the biggest funding coups in crypto history—landing a monumental investment that values the company at a staggering $40 billion.
The Deal That's Shaking Crypto
While traditional finance institutions were busy debating regulatory frameworks, Ripple went out and secured the kind of capital injection that makes Wall Street bankers choke on their morning coffee. This isn't just another funding round—it's a statement that blockchain infrastructure plays are becoming the new blue-chip investments.
Market Impact and Future Trajectory
The $40 billion valuation puts Ripple in an elite category of fintech giants, proving that institutional money is flooding into crypto infrastructure despite regulatory headwinds. This massive vote of confidence suggests that smart money sees cross-border payment solutions as the next frontier in financial technology disruption.
Of course, the real question remains—will traditional banks finally acknowledge they're playing catch-up, or continue pretending blockchain is just a passing trend while their market share evaporates?

The big news here is that the FDA rejected Biohaven’s NDA for VYGLXIA as an SCA treatment. It did so for a variety of factors, including potential bias, design flaws, lack of pre-specification, and unmeasured confounding factors. The company plans to seek a meeting with the FDA to discuss this CRL and what it should do moving forward.
Biohaven Chairman and CEO Vlad Coric said, “We are extremely disappointed on behalf of patients by this action from the Office of Neuroscience at FDA. Beyond substantial evidence of safety and efficacy, patients with rare diseases also deserve an efficient, fair and flexible regulatory process that aligns with the urgency of their high unmet medical needs. Such an approach has been mandated by Congress to empower the FDA with maximum regulatory flexibility for rare disease.”
