As for the future, Vias hinted that new announcements may be forthcoming.

"With respect to growth and outreach, we will continue to partner with digital asset exchanges for listings and mostly importantly ... it is really all about payments and in this quarter, you will see some very interesting developments with respect to our partnership in payments, with respect to XRP in particular," Vias told CNBC.
