The Xumm wallet was created by one of the most renowned developers of the XRP community called Wietse Wind.
It comes with the benefit of instant deposit and with drawl of XRP to non-custodial accounts. This enables it to become the customer’s own bank by storing private keys. The firm made sure that there is no third party involved so that clients can be their own in charge.
Since XRP Ledger is decentralized, its users can also store other assets. According to Warren Paul Anderson, Xpring’s head of developer relations, this whole process very user friendly, convenient and takes up to less than 20 minutes and it is very convenient.
