Developers have long sought EVM compatibility to scale and extend XRPL’s unique capabilities, and with the EVM sidechain launch, they can now build, port and deploy cross-chain and EVM -only dApps while tapping into XRPL’s deep liquidity. This paves the way for entirely new classes of decentralized apps, spanning lending, tokenization, payments and beyond, on infrastructure optimized for speed, security and scale.
Cross-chain interoperability protocol Wormhole is set to be integrated with XRPL EVM Sidechain. Wormhole supports over 200 applications across 35 blockchain ecosystems. Aside from Ethereum compatibility, the EVM sidechain is intended to have faster block times than Ethereum's 14 seconds and lower transaction costs, making it suitable for high-volume dApps. XRP is the native gas token for the XRPL EVM sidechain, increasing its utility.BloFin WOW 2025 Grand Prix Opens Registration for $4.2M Trading Championship and Tesla Cybertruck Prize
