Despite the lingering SEC lawsuit, Ripple continues to make notable impacts around the globe including funding several higher learning institutions and many research projects to further blockchain development. 

To develop the next generation of global changemakers as well as increase the adoption of blockchain technology, the San Francisco-headquartered crypto solutions company and cross-border payment firm have financed over 45 university partnerships across 20 countries since 2018. 

These institutions include Korea University, the University of Michigan, the University of Waterloo, The University of Texas at Austin, the University of Zurich and Morgan State University among others.
