In April 2018, last year, news emerged about a significant partnership between Apple Inc and Ripple. An alliance that was said to be destined to assist Ripple’s default currency, XRP.

Expounding the advantages of Ripple’s Interledger protocol, the company’s CTO, Stefan Thomas, stated in 2016 that:

“We ensure our customers are not exposed to any risk from either the connectors or any of the other ledgers. The connectors are made up of systems that connect ledgers. The way we ensure top-notch security is by utilizing escrow at each hop of the payment.”
