The XRPL Accelerator – Launch Program is dedicated to nurturing innovation and the development of financial use cases on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). The initiative continues to support entrepreneurs and builders looking to scale their projects on the XRP Ledger and we are excited to announce the latest cohort of projects selected for the prestigious Launch Program.
As part of our commitment to fostering innovation and development on the XRP Ledger, we have chosen a diverse group of pioneering projects that are set to revolutionize various sectors through the power of blockchain technology. With over 150 applications received, project focuses range from DeFi, DID, Infra, RWA and even verifiable credentials. These projects will receive significant support, including up to $100,000 in grant funding, mentorship from industry experts, and invaluable networking opportunities. The recent XRPL Apex 2024 event already saw some of the teams connect with the broader community and share the impressive work they are doing on the network.
Let’s take a close look at some of the groundbreaking projects selected for the latest XRPL Accelerator Launch Program:
Decentralized Finance (DeFi)

Investors can buy and sell these tokens on the Alt DRX Platform, allowing for dynamic market participation and liquidity in real estate investments. ALT.SQFT tokens offer the potential for income through interest payments and profit from property sales, but they also enable investors to engage in a transparent, efficient real estate market, receiving regular updates on valuation and the opportunity to trade at market-driven prices.
Moai Finance
Moai Finance is developing a multi-chain decentralized exchange (DEX) and cross-chain DEX aggregator to improve asset liquidity and utility within the XRP Ledger (XRPL) community. Their flagship product is an automated market maker (AMM)-based decentralized protocol that enables seamless swapping between assets on different blockchains. They want to expand their product to support XRPL Mainnet and XRPL EVM sidechain to simplify the liquidity provision and asset swap mechanisms for users.

The accompanying tokenization stack, formed from some ‘world-first’ legal engineering developed in conjunction with DLA Piper and Truva Corp, allows for the on-chain NFT collateral to be composed of actual property ownership rights or mortgage rights, boosting security for lenders, whilst borrowers are left with simplified and enhanced accessibility to revolving credit compared to traditional fixed-term loans.
