米仮想通貨決済大手のリップル社は4月8日、プライム・ブローカレッジのHidden Roadを12億5000万ドル（約1900億円）で買収すると発表したそうでこの買収は仮想通貨業界史上最大級の取引の1つとなり、リップルは機関投資家向けサービスの拡大を目指しているそうなのですがこの額で買収できるのは凄いと思うし今後XRPがどれだけ成長していくのかが見どころですね。
On April 8th, Ripple, a major US cryptocurrency payment company, announced that it would acquire prime brokerage Hidden Road for $1.25 billion (approximately 190 billion yen). This acquisition will be one of the largest transactions in the history of the cryptocurrency industry. Ripple is aiming to expand its services for institutional investors, so I think it is amazing that it was able to make an acquisition for this amount, and it will be interesting to see how much XRP will grow in the future.
