Flare Co-founder Breaks Down How XRP Can Be Used As Collateral
XRP has long served as a digital payment asset. Ripple’s developer arm, RippleX, recently highlighted how that role is expanding. The company shared a segment from the “XRP in a Minute” series featuring Hugo Philion, co-founder of Flare Networks, who walked through the infrastructure Flare has built to generate yield on XRP holdings. Philion argues that XRP can serve as collateral, not just transactional. That function is important for holders who want their XRP to work beyond settling transactions. Can XRP be used in strategies involving lending and vaults? Absolutely. @HugoPhilion breaks down how XRP can be used as collateral to access yield strategies. That includes wrapping XRP as FXRP on @FlareNetworks , borrowing stablecoins against it, and deploying those assets into… pic.twitter.com/KRaPCD4qe3 — RippleX (@RippleXDev) May 29, 2026 How the Flare Strategy Works Flare’s primary method starts with wrapping XRP. Holders move their XRP to the Flare network, where it becomes FXRP . FXRP is a non-custodial, overcollateralized 1:1 token representation of XRP on Flare, issued through Flare’s FAssets system, which allows XRP to interact with decentralized finance protocols. Once wrapped, holders can put FXRP into lending protocols. From there, they borrow stablecoins against it. Those stablecoins then go into other protocols to generate yield. As Philion explained, “by taking your XRP and turning it into a collateral asset, you can then get yield through borrowing and then re-lending out those dollars.” The Vault Alternative Philion also described a second method. This one involves placing XRP into a vault, either on the XRP Ledger or soon on Flare itself. A counterparty then takes that XRP to a financial intermediary, who deploys it into markets to produce returns. Philion described this approach as more centralized compared to Flare’s DeFi method. He positioned the vault strategy as an alternative path for holders who prefer a different structure, without ruling it out as a useful option. Flare’s Role Philion was clear about Flare’s mission in this space. “Flare’s mission has been to turn XRP into a collateral asset rather than just a transaction payment asset where it’s used on the XRP ledger.” The infrastructure Flare has built around FXRP and lending protocols is the execution of that mission. Both strategies converge on the same goal: extracting yield from an asset that previously had limited options for generating returns on-chain.

The segment from RippleX signals an active push to educate XRP holders on DeFi options available to them today. The two methods Philion described, lending via FXRP and vault-based deployment, give holders different entry points depending on their preference for decentralization and complexity. XRP’s place in DeFi is no longer theoretical. The infrastructure exists, the products are live, and users can now directly engage with XRP’s DeFi ecosystem.
