While the XRP Ledger (XRPL) is built for speed and cost-efficiency, its native smart contract capabilities are limited.
That’s where Coreum comes in — providing enterprise-grade, WASM-based smart contracts that extend XRPL’s reach beyond its own ecosystem.
By integrating WebAssembly (WASM) Smart Contracts, Coreum isn’t just enhancing its own platform — it’s creating interoperable bridges between XRPL and other leading blockchains, unlocking cross-chain DeFi, tokenization, and asset management.
Let’s explore how Coreum’s WASM-based architecture could be the missing link that expands Ripple’s blockchain ecosystem into a fully connected Web3 network.
Why Cross-Chain Interoperability Matters
- DeFi is Multi-Chain by Nature
Users hold assets on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, XRPL, and more. - Isolated Ecosystems Limit Growth
Without interoperability, liquidity and utility stay locked in siloed blockchains. - Enterprises Need Unified Solutions
Corporations require cross-chain asset management for real-world applications.
How Coreum’s WASM Smart Contracts Bridge the Gap
✅ WebAssembly (WASM) Execution Layer
- High-performance, cross-platform smart contracts.
- Supports multiple programming languages (Rust, C, C++, etc.).
- Faster and more secure than traditional EVM-based contracts.
✅ XRPL and Coreum Interoperability
- Token bridges enabling XRPL assets to interact with Coreum’s smart contracts.
- Expand XRP and XRPL tokens into DeFi, staking, and governance ecosystems on Coreum.
✅ Cross-Chain Oracles and Data Feeds
- WASM contracts can integrate external data sources, enabling real-world use cases.
Example Use Case: XRPL-Based Stablecoin on Coreum
- A regulated stablecoin is issued on XRPL.
- Users bridge the stablecoin to Coreum to participate in DeFi liquidity pools.
- Smart contracts on Coreum automate yield generation, governance, and cross-chain settlements.
This expands the utility of XRPL-issued tokens beyond payments and into programmable financial services.
