Ripple (XRP) runs on the XRP Ledger blockchain, a decentralized, open-source project. Ripple's website touts the currency as a tool for faster, cheaper cross-border transactions; a "more accessible" alternative to traditional banking and a means to move currencies around the world. It claims transaction costs of a tiny fraction of a cent, as well as a transaction speed of three to five seconds.
