Ripple’s Chris Larsen-Backed Yellow Network in the Buzz

Yellow Network is in the buzz after it highlighted a fee-free AI-to-AI settlement approach that combines its off-chain channels with XRP settlement on the XRP Ledger. The project’s zero-gas execution handles high-frequency trades, with final settlement occurring on-chain using XRP.

The project came into the spotlight again during the recent launch of XRP official X account and website. It posted that pairing Yellow’s zero-gas execution with XRP settlement creates the ultimate high-speed stack.

Burak Cem, head of growth at Yellow, also posted a hint at further collaboration with XRP. The crypto community speculated about fee-free AI-to-AI settlements using XRP. It aims to bridge the settlement and trust gap during agentic payments between two AI agents.

Something is brewing behind the scenes.
