Franklin Templeton, a financial giant with $1.8 trillion in assets under management, has announced the integration of Stellar (XLM) and Ripple (XRP) into its blockchain-based offerings. This move is part of the firm's broader strategy to expand its multi-chain capabilities for institutional yield products.

The announcement has been met with a positive market response, particularly for Stellar's XLM, which has seen a 5.97% increase in price over the past 24 hours. XRP has also experienced a 3.37% price increase during the same period.

The move highlights the potential of these networks to offer real-time settlement and high-yield opportunities, which are increasingly attractive to large financial institutions.
