As part of the initiative, SBI R3 Japan will be renamed SBI Solana Global, with the Solana Foundation joining the venture alongside existing shareholders SBI Holdings and Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group (SMFG). The new entity plans to focus on stablecoins, tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), cross-border payments, institutional on-chain finance and AI-era payment infrastructure built on Solana.The announcement prompted some XRP supporters to question what the move means for Ripple's relationship with SBI.\"What's up with XRP?\" one X user wrote.
