With InstaRem and RationalFX, RippleNet opens am avenue for remittances between the United Kingdom, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
There is also Remitr and FlutterWave who will use the network to tap into the corridor from Canada and Nigeria. Africa is pretty much an untapped market that could be where Ripple end up thriving than anywhere else. Another corridor is that of Brazil, Spain, Italy, Germany, France and Portugal that has been made possible through BeeTech and InstaRem joining RippleNet.
