The evmOS provides an advanced technology stack that enables Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility and full customization on top of the Cosmos Standard Development Kit (SDK).
Ripple’s XRP Ledger, through this partnership will have access to over 60 Cosmos-based SDK chains, through the Inter-Blockchain Communication Protocol (IBC).
XRPL’s interoperability features are anticipated to be extremely impactful in the ecosystem, considering its veteran status in the industry. The interchain will benefit from the large number of users on the XRP network.

Head of the DeFi Product at Ripple, Jasmine Cooper, said,
“Bringing the XRPL EVM sidechain to the Interchain with evmOS represents a signficant mileston in expanding the XRPL ecosystem. By leveraging evmOS technology, we can offer developers unparalleled flexibility and customization options, enabling them to build innovative cross-chain applications that tap into the vast potential of the XRPL and the broader interchain ecosystem. We believe utilizing evmOS will accelerate the growth of the XRPL EVM sidechain and unlock new opportunities and users”
