In a significant development for the financial technology (fintech) sector, it has been confirmed that Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple, and Chris Larsen, Executive Chairman and Co-Founder of Ripple, will be featured speakers at the Eighth Annual Fintech Conference hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia on October 22–23, 2024. 
The conference agenda, <a href="https://x.com/RippleXrpie/status/1839667637531422977">shared</a> by prominent crypto enthusiast JackTheRippler on social media, has stirred considerable interest within the fintech and cryptocurrency communities. 
The event, which will bring together key players from traditional financial institutions, regulatory bodies, and the burgeoning digital asset sector, will offer attendees insights into the rapidly evolving landscape of payments and financial innovation. 
Garlinghouse and Larsen are scheduled to participate in a session titled “Recent Innovations in Payments” on October 22 at 2:15 p.m., alongside Sheila Warren, CEO of the Crypto Council for Innovation, who will serve as the panel’s moderator.

Ripple, the company founded by Chris Larsen, has been at the forefront of payment innovations using blockchain technology. With its focus on revolutionizing <a href="https://timestabloid.com/ripple-wins-new-cross-border-payment-partnership-in-europe/">cross-border payments</a> through the use of XRP, Ripple’s digital asset, the company has consistently been a significant player in promoting the use of blockchain technology to enhance global payment systems. 
The inclusion of Garlinghouse and Larsen at a Federal Reserve event highlights the increasing recognition of blockchain’s potential by traditional financial institutions and regulatory bodies. 
Garlinghouse, in particular, has been an outspoken advocate for the <a href="https://timestabloid.com/crypto-researcher-we-are-in-the-last-phase-of-xrp-adoption/">adoption of digital assets </a>and blockchain technology, often citing the inefficiencies of traditional banking systems in processing international payments. 
His presence at the conference, coupled with that of Larsen, suggests a broader recognition of blockchain’s role in modernizing the financial sector. Their participation is likely to underscore Ripple’s achievements and its role in shaping the future of digital payments. 
<h3 id="b-key-discussions-on-the-horizon-b">Key Discussions on the Horizon</h3> 
The panel titled “Recent Innovations in Payments” will explore developments in payment technologies, with an emphasis on digital assets and blockchain. 
Given the current regulatory environment and ongoing scrutiny of cryptocurrency companies in the U.S., this discussion is expected to be highly relevant to stakeholders from both the crypto and traditional financial sectors. 
Ripple’s inclusion on the panel signals that blockchain-based payment solutions are increasingly seen as viable and scalable alternatives to traditional banking systems. 
Several voices from the cryptocurrency community, such as Twitter user “Subjective Views,” have <a href="https://x.com/subjectiveviews/status/1839492728670875984">raised questions </a>about the significance of Ripple’s leadership speaking at a Federal Reserve event. 
Some speculate that this indicates a growing alignment between blockchain technology and central banking institutions. Another X user, Rob Cunningham,<a href="https://x.com/KuwlShow/status/1839994767398015166"> commented</a> that “Payments is a fundamental human right that, when properly operated, levels the playing field for all.” 
He emphasized the shifting role of the Federal Reserve, suggesting that its function has evolved from that of a traditional debt-issuing entity to an institution that could integrate digital protocols as part of its financial infrastructure.
