XRP News Today: VivoPower’s XRP Treasury Gamble: A Regenerative Play for Shareholder Value

VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ: VVPR) has announced a strategic initiative to deploy $30 million of its XRP holdings through Doppler Finance, marking the first phase of a broader $200 million treasury yield program. The move is part of the company’s ongoing digital transformation, which centers on leveraging XRP and blockchain-based yield generation strategies to build long-term value for shareholders. The partnership with Doppler Finance, an institutional-grade yield platform built on the XRP Ledger, aims to create a regenerative financial model wherein returns from deployed XRP are reinvested back into VivoPower’s reserves. This compounding mechanism is designed to generate compounding long-term value for shareholders, distinguishing it from traditional treasury management approaches [1].

Doppler Finance is backed by notable crypto-native entities such as ReForge, Digital Currency Group (DCG), and Ripple-affiliated organizations, providing VivoPower with a robust infrastructure for managing its digital assets. The platform’s technology integrates regulated custody, fully audited reserves, and yield strategies designed for both safety and scalability, aligning with VivoPower’s institutional-grade objectives. Kevin Chin, Executive Chairman and CEO of VivoPower, emphasized the strategic importance of South Korea, where approximately 20% of the global XRP supply—valued at $30 billion—is held. The region is seen as a critical market for VivoPower’s digital treasury and decentralized finance (DeFi) expansion [2].

The partnership also opens opportunities for VivoPower to participate in South Korea’s growing DeFi ecosystem, with a focus on stablecoin-based payment remittances, real-world asset tokenization, and decentralized lending. According to Rox Park, Head of Korea at Doppler Finance, the platform is well-positioned to meet VivoPower’s yield enhancement goals and potentially support future initiatives involving RLUSD, a stablecoin developed on the XRP Ledger. This strategic alignment suggests a long-term commitment to leveraging the XRP Ledger’s efficiency and scalability for institutional-grade yield generation [3].

In addition to the XRP-based yield strategy, VivoPower has further solidified its position in the XRP ecosystem by acquiring $100 million in equity shares of Ripple, the company behind the XRP Ledger. This dual approach—holding both XRP and Ripple shares—reflects VivoPower’s confidence in the broader adoption of blockchain technology in cross-border finance and institutional markets. The firm’s transition from traditional energy solutions to a crypto-focused treasury model underscores a broader shift in corporate strategy toward tokenized financial infrastructure [4].

VivoPower has also confirmed its participation in the XRP Seoul 2025 conference, a major industry event expected to attract over 3,000 attendees from more than 40 countries. This further highlights the company’s strategic emphasis on South Korea, where XRP trading volume and market activity are among the highest globally. The event, supported by Ripple and hosted by XRPL Korea, is set to feature key discussions on the future of XRP and decentralized finance in the region [5].
