Ripple Prime Is Registered and Approved to Operate In All 53 U.S. States and Territories

A FINRA BrokerCheck report for Hidden Road Partners CIV US LLC has confirmed that Ripple Prime, the firm’s registered trade name, holds approved broker-dealer status in all 53 U.S. states and territories.

Crypto researcher SMQKE (@SMQKEDQG) published the finding. The report lists state-by-state approvals, all dated throughout 2025.

Hidden Road Partners CIV US LLC operates under the trade name “Ripple Prime” across every U.S. jurisdiction. The firm received approval in states including California, New York, Texas, Florida, and all remaining territories such as Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Every entry in the FINRA registration table carries the status: Approved.

The Ripple Connection

Ripple acquired Hidden Road in 2025. That acquisition brought Hidden Road’s institutional prime brokerage infrastructure directly under Ripple’s ownership. Hidden Road was already a significant player in institutional finance, processing over $3 trillion in annual transactions before the deal closed.

The FINRA filing confirms that the firm now operates publicly as Ripple Prime. This is not a proposal or a pending application. The approvals are active. The firm is registered, regulated, FINRA-compliant, licensed in every U.S. jurisdiction, and ready to serve institutional clients under the Ripple name.

Why This Matters for XRP

Ripple Prime’s full U.S. regulatory clearance positions XRP for direct institutional access at scale. An award-winning prime brokerage arm operating in all 53 jurisdictions gives Ripple the infrastructure to offer XRP-related financial services to institutional clients legally across the entire country.

Institutional prime brokers provide services like lending, clearing, and settlement. With Ripple Prime now cleared nationwide, institutions have a regulated U.S. entity through which they can engage with Ripple’s ecosystem. This is a concrete expansion of XRP’s institutional utility.

Regulatory clarity has been one of the most consistent demands from institutional investors considering XRP exposure. A fully licensed, FINRA-registered prime broker operating under the Ripple name directly addresses that requirement.

What Comes Next?

The approval timeline in the FINRA report shows that most state registrations were completed between April and August 2025. The pace of those approvals suggests a coordinated and deliberate push for nationwide coverage following Hidden Road’s acquisition.

Ripple Prime’s reach now covers the entire U.S. market. That coverage gives Ripple a regulated pathway to offer institutional-grade services in every state, without geographic restriction. That also places XRP within an infrastructure capable of supporting institutional demand at a national level.
