## Resource

This week, we speak with Asheesh Birla, CEO of Evernorth. Evernorth is a crypto treasury focused on XRP, a cryptocurrency that is used in decentralized financial structures and payments. It aims to power that endeavor through its business combination with Armada Acquisition Corp. II (NASDAQ:XRPN), announced in October. Crypto treasury deals were one of the major themes of 2025 SPAC dealflow, but they are far from being all the same. Asheesh explains how the company plans to leverage its XRP holdings to generate yield over the long term and how XRP’s unique appeal in international markets presents a fresh opportunity for the crypto treasury model. Give it a listen. This interview contains forward-looking statements. See linked press release for important disclaimers: https://www.evernorth.xyz/press-release-10-20-2025
