Ripple to buy back $750M in shares, valuing company at $50B

A Wednesday Bloomberg report says Ripple plans a tender offer through April to buy back up to $750 million worth of shares from investors and employees, a program that would value the company at $50 billion. That figure is 25% higher than the valuation assigned after a $500 million raise in November 2025, when the company’s president, Monica Long, said Ripple had no plans to go public.

The buyback follows Ripple’s push beyond the crypto industry, including a $1.2 billion acquisition of non-bank prime broker Hidden Road and treasury management system provider GTreasury in October. The company also said it will move forward with plans for a financial services license in Australia through the acquisition of a local payments firm.

Earlier this week Ripple reported processing more than $100 billion in transactions, and that its stablecoin Ripple USD (RLUSD) has exceeded a $1 billion market capitalization since launching in December 2024.
