Nordic region’s largest cryptocurrency exchange has officially declared a major adoption of XRP, accelerating efforts to build a vast digital asset payment and investment ecosystem connecting across Europe.

According to multiple foreign media outlets including The Crypto Basic on February 14 (local time), Firi, a leading cryptocurrency exchange in the Nordic market, has announced the acceleration of XRP adoption by expanding its XRP services across the European market. As one of the most trusted exchanges in countries such as Norway and Denmark, Firi’s decision creates an environment where millions of investors across Europe can trade XRP more easily and quickly.

This expansion comes as Europe’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation gains traction, reducing legal uncertainties. Firi plans to provide advanced trading services for institutional investors in connection with Ripple’s Liquidity Hub. In particular, expectations are rising as the company leverages the Nordic region’s advanced fintech infrastructure to position XRP as a practical cross-border payment solution.

Firi officials assessed that XRP’s fast transaction speed and low fees make it an optimal alternative for addressing persistent inefficiencies in Europe’s remittance market. Surging demand for XRP among Nordic investors—who increasingly view it as a third core asset alongside Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH)—also played a key role in the decision. Firi intends to further expand its services into neighboring countries such as Sweden and Finland.

Experts predict that this move by the Nordic region’s largest exchange could trigger a domino effect across the broader European digital asset market. With many European financial institutions already showing interest in tokenized asset trading and payment systems utilizing XRP, Firi’s expanded adoption is expected to serve as a catalyst for deeper institutional integration. As XRP liquidity improves significantly within the European market, price stability is also likely to strengthen.

As institutional acceptance of digital assets accelerates, the wave of adoption emerging from the Nordic region is likely to spread beyond Europe to the global market. Emphasizing secure trading environments and investor protection as top priorities, Firi aims to position itself as a central hub for the XRP ecosystem in Europe. The Nordic exchange’s strategy of balancing regulatory compliance with innovation is setting a new standard for the digital asset industry.
