Ripple President Monica Long Celebrates XRP Community Builders as Official X Account Launches
Ripple President Monica Long shared a message on X, celebrating the early builders of the XRP ecosystem, following the launch of XRP's official X account on October 19, 2026. Long stated, "The best part has been watching people build on something before it was obvious. Welcome @xrp!" This milestone comes over 14 years after the XRP Ledger was initially launched in June 2012, developed by engineers David Schwartz, Jed McCaleb, and Arthur Britto. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse also reacted to the debut, noting it had been "a long time coming." Meanwhile, Hussein Zangana (Vet) hinted at more significant announcements for XRP and the XRP Ledger in the coming weeks, while cautioning the community about scammers using vanity addresses and tokens.
