This move makes **[EBZT](https://everythingblockchain.io/)** one of the first U.S. public companies to deploy XRP in a compliant, yield-bearing structure—joining Nasdaq-listed VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ: VVPR), which earlier this year committed $100 million in XRP to **[Flare’s ecosystem](https://flare.network/)**. Together, these early adopters mark the rise of XRPFi as a new institutional standard for corporate treasury yield.

## From Passive Asset to Productive Treasury Tool

XRPFi redefines how institutions can put XRP to work. Long viewed as a non-yielding digital asset, XRP is now being transformed into a productive financial instrument via Flare’s FAssets—a trustless bridging system that brings smart contract functionality to assets like XRP and BTC.  
   
Through this structure, **[EBZT](https://everythingblockchain.io/)** will convert XRP into FXRP and deploy it across decentralized lending, staking, and liquidity protocols, supported by Firelight, Flare’s decentralized restaking layer.

> **“XRP, now a roughly $150 billion asset, has been a cornerstone of digital finance for more than a decade, yet institutions have had few ways to make it productive. Flare changes that by enabling a compliant, on-chain, non-custodial yield framework designed for corporate treasuries. With VivoPower and now Everything Blockchain, public companies are validating that XRPFi is not just a concept but an emerging institutional standard.”**

## EBZT’s Strategic Shift

For EBZT, the decision represents more than portfolio diversification—it’s about reframing the role of digital assets in a public-company treasury.

> **“This is about unlocking the true financial utility of digital assets like XRP, not just as speculative holdings, but as yield-bearing instruments that can compound over time. Flare gives us the rails to do this in a way that meets the governance, security, and auditability standards required of public companies.”**

> **Arthur Rozenberg, CEO of Everything Blockchain Inc.**

By integrating XRPFi, EBZT aims to set a precedent for other listed firms looking to compliantly tap into blockchain yields.

## Building the Institutional Layer for XRP

With multiple public companies already adopting XRPFi and millions in assets live on Flare, the network is emerging as the **[programmable utility layer for XRP in institutional finance.](https://flare.network/news/introduction-to-xrp-defi)** The forthcoming rollout of FAssets will further extend these opportunities to other non-smart contract assets, broadening the reach of **[Flare’s](https://flare.network/)** treasury-focused DeFi model.
