Within 20 days of announcing the acquisition of Fortress Trust to allegedly expand its pool of licenses in the United States, financial technology firm is pulling out of the deal.

Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse made the announcement on X (formerly Twitter) on Sept. 28, saying that “we’ve since made the decision not to move forward with an outright acquisition,” although Ripple will remain a shareholder in Fortress Trust’s parent company Fortress Blockchain Technologies.
