XRP (XRP) is a digital asset that does not use mining like proof-of-work (PoW) cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Instead, XRP uses a consensus algorithm called the XRP Ledger Consensus Protocol. This means that XRP tokens are not mined, but rather all 100 billion XRP tokens were created at the launch of the network. If you are interested in acquiring XRP, you can purchase them on cryptocurrency exchanges.
