Crypto researcher SMQKE drew attention to remarks made by Ripple’s Antoinette O’Gorma in a recent post. In the tweet, SMQKE stated that Ripple is the only cryptocurrency company that monitors and reports suspicious activity on the blockchain, pointing to security and compliance on the XRP Ledger as long-standing priorities for Ripple. He encouraged his followers to carefully consider O’Gorma’s statements, which were shared in a video clip attached to the post. O’Gorma on Global Regulatory Limitations In the video, O’Gorma began by addressing the potential effectiveness of global anti-money laundering regulation. She noted that even if AML regulations were uniformly introduced and made applicable to all financial institutions and digital currency exchanges worldwide, these measures would not adequately address transaction risk. She reasoned that transactions are recorded on blockchains beneath the operations of digital exchanges, and while exchanges monitor activities within their platforms, the actual blockchain-level activity often goes unmonitored. She pointed out that no financial institution currently takes on this responsibility, and emphasized that Ripple Labs stands out as an exception. According to O’Gorma, Ripple has been required by regulators to monitor and report suspicious blockchain-based activity, a responsibility that most other entities in the digital asset space have not undertaken. Ripple’s Antoinette O’Gorma: “Ripple is the ONLY CRYPTO COMPANY that monitors and reports suspicious activity on the blockchain.” Security and compliance on the XRP Ledger have always been top priorities for Ripple.

She stated that anyone with internet access can open these wallets. Once created, provide immediate capabilities for transactions without traditional onboarding requirements. She illustrated this by showing examples of wallet addresses on the blockchain, including both XRP Ledger and Bitcoin wallets . O’Gorma stressed that cryptocurrency transfers occur directly from one address to another, typically without additional identifying information. She also underlined it’s difficult to determine the physical location of a wallet holder due to techniques such as IP address spoofing, which obscure the origin of transactions.

With hundreds of thousands of wallet addresses active on the XRP Ledger , the company developed mechanisms to handle reports of unusual or illegal activities. Users were provided with a repository to submit allegations relating to thefts, phishing scams, pyramid schemes, and other suspicious behavior. Ripple then used this information to initiate investigations aimed at identifying culprits and uncovering broader patterns of activity that could indicate illegal conduct. She explained that Ripple worked to link allegations of suspicious activity with blockchain data to detect trends and address concerns about illicit use. The process involved examining reported incidents, consolidating user feedback, and building cases to identify potential threats operating on the XRP Ledger. SMQKE’s tweet reinforced the significance of Ripple’s approach in the broader cryptocurrency industry. By highlighting O’Gorma’s comments, he drew attention to Ripple’s position as an entity required by regulators to go beyond exchange-level monitoring and actively report blockchain-based suspicious activities. Her explanation demonstrated Ripple’s efforts to combine compliance, user feedback, and blockchain analysis to build a system of accountability that addresses risks in the digital asset ecosystem.
