As an analyst with a background in blockchain technology and digital asset recovery, I’m particularly intrigued by the recent announcement of Ripple joining the Decentralized Recovery Alliance (DeRec) as a founding member. This alliance, which includes Hedera, Algorand, XRPL Labs, and now Ripple, aims to simplify and decentralize digital asset recovery, addressing a major concern for users of self-custodied cryptocurrencies.
Ripple joined Swirlds Labs and the Algorand Foundation as a founding member of the DeRec Alliance.
Through the collaboration, we strive to streamline the process of deploying and retrieving digital assets. A self-governing protocol named DeRec (Decentralized Recovery), developed as part of this initiative, enables users to recover their private data even when they’ve misplaced or lost the device used for two-factor authentication.
As a crypto investor, I’m thrilled to share that Ripple and XRPL Labs have become Founding Members of the Decentralized Recovery Alliance, joining Swirlds Labs and AlgoFoundation. For the next two years, we’ll hold seats on the Technical Oversight Committee, allowing us to contribute valuable insights into the Alliance’s governance and core policies. #DeRecAlliance— Decentralized Recovery Alliance (@DeRecAlliance) May 9, 2024
Dr. Leemon Baird, Hedera’s co-founder, revealed that the DeRec Alliance started as an open-source initiative aiming to create a universally accepted approach for recovering assets in a hassle-free, secure, and decentralized manner across all digital wallets.
“It’s important for the blockchain community and various industries to collaborate in establishing safety norms and openly sharing code for Web3, ensuring its promise is fulfilled without undue complexity.”

At first, Hedera and Algorand spearheaded the rollout of this initiative. Later on, Ripple and its affiliate XRPL Labs became part of the committee, holding influential roles for a two-year term.
John Wingate, the CEO of BankSocial, pointed out that this project addresses a significant issue in the domain of digital asset storage: the danger of data loss that can result in irreversible damage.
Based on the CEO of Blade Labs, Sami Mian’s perspective, these occurrences hinder people from interacting with digital currencies.
As a researcher in the field of digital assets, I believe that self-custody has the potential to transform the way we own and trade assets. However, it comes with significant challenges such as suboptimal user experiences and the risk of irretrievable loss. To address these hurdles, our team is spearheading the integration with DeRec protocol and collaborating closely with the Alliance. Our goal is to make this groundbreaking innovation accessible to everyone.

At the close of 2024, Ripple unveiled plans to introduce its stablecoin on both the XRP Ledger and Ethereum blockchains. This digital currency will be fully collateralized with US dollar reserves, short-term government bonds, and additional assets. An independent accounting firm will oversee and verify the financials.
