Crypto exchange Gemini now lets users in Singapore deposit and withdraw XRP directly through the XRP Ledger, the token’s native blockchain network. The update adds native XRPL transfer support for a defined group of Singapore-based users.
What Gemini changed for XRP users in Singapore
Gemini has enabled both XRP deposits and XRP withdrawals over the XRP Ledger, known as XRPL, for its Singapore users. XRPL is the public blockchain built to move XRP. For related coverage, see TRM Labs: 2026 Deepfake Scam Losses Already 263% Above 2025.
The change means Singapore users can send XRP into their Gemini account and pull it back out again. Both directions run on XRPL, the coin’s own network, according to Gemini’s support documentation. For related coverage, see Blockchain Association seeks P2P carveout in stablecoin ID rules.
This is a targeted service update, not a global one. The rollout is described for users in Singapore rather than every Gemini market. For related coverage, see US Treasury Expands Iran-Related Sanctions to Five Sectors, Including Crypto.
Why native XRPL support matters for transfers
Native network support matters because it decides how you can actually move a coin. Here, XRP travels on the XRP network itself, not through a wrapped or bridged version.
Deposits handle money coming in. Withdrawals handle money going out. Supporting both gives Singapore users full two-way transfer functionality for XRP on the exchange.
For a regular holder, this is the practical part: you get network-specific access to send and receive XRP using standard XRPL transfers. Gemini has posted a step-by-step guide covering how these transfers work.
What the update signals for Gemini in Singapore
The announcement singles out Singapore, which frames it as a regional rollout rather than a worldwide feature. Exchange feature launches often track what is available in a specific market.
The result is expanded XRP availability for a local user base. Singapore users gain a supported way to move XRP on and off Gemini through its native rails.
Gemini has been in the headlines on other fronts. The company faced a New York lawsuit alongside Coinbase over prediction markets, and separately drew scrutiny in a New York compliance dispute. This Singapore transfer update is a straightforward product change by comparison.
For the latest on wallets and network transfers, Gemini publishes announcements through its official X account.
The takeaway: If you hold XRP and use Gemini in Singapore, you can now move that XRP in and out over the XRP Ledger. Check Gemini’s support guide for the exact steps and any transfer limits before you send.
