Founded in 2018, the platform’s decision to wrap up activities in less than a year since its inception was speculated to be the death of one of XRP United’s key members. The Ripple-focused exchange had tweeted,
“It is with great sadness and sorrow that XRP United teams announces the passing away of P3T3RIS @p3_ris , a key member of the XRP community and a great visionary… We kindly ask you to take a moment to remember him. Thank you on behalf of the entire XRP United team.”
