XRP gains mainstream exposure via Kansas Jayhawks sponsorship
The cryptocurrency XRP has gained mainstream visibility through a multi-year sponsorship agreement between Ripple and Kansas Athletics. Following a 51-6 victory by the Kansas Jayhawks against Long Island University, XRP branding was prominently displayed, including patches on team uniforms.
Beyond simple logo placement, the partnership reportedly includes educational components, providing programs for students in finance and technology sectors. Additionally, Florida Athletics is expected to feature XRP branding at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, signaling a broader push to integrate the digital asset into the high-reach environment of US college sports.
