The XRP community received a significant update after the XRP Ledger Foundation officially introduced the team that will lead its operations, engineering efforts, and community engagement.

The Foundation explained that the new leadership group will oversee the organization’s day-to-day direction while working closely with developers, validators, community members, and ecosystem partners. The post also emphasized that the organization plans to operate openly and transparently as it advances technical and community initiatives tied to the XRP Ledger.

Among the appointments, one of the most notable additions was XRP Ledger validator and community figure Hussein Zangana, popularly known as Vet within the XRP community.

Shortly after the Foundation published the announcement, Vet confirmed the news in a separate post, describing it as a major personal milestone and expressing excitement about joining the leadership team as Director of Community.

Vet Confirms New Role at the Foundation

Vet ended his message with the phrase “Back to the roots,” which many community members interpreted as a return to deeper involvement in foundational XRP Ledger development and community-building efforts.

The Foundation described Vet’s responsibilities as broad and community-focused. According to the announcement, he will oversee ecosystem storytelling, communications, validator and developer engagement, event participation, educational content, livestreams, and community coordination.

The post also highlighted his previous contributions to the XRP ecosystem, including infrastructure support, amendment proposals, documentation efforts, and co-founding projects such as XRP Cafe.

Leadership Team Combines Technical and Operational Experience

The Foundation also introduced other members of the leadership structure, including Brett Mollin as Executive Director, Denis Angell as Chief Technology Officer, and Rene Huijsen as Director of Operations.

The announcement described Denis Angell as one of the most active contributors to the XRPL codebase. It notes that he will now lead engineering direction, amendment work, and production standards for the Foundation.

Rene Huijsen’s background at Ripple and his participation in cross-border payment initiatives with the Bank for International Settlements were also highlighted as part of the Foundation’s operational strategy.

The XRP Ledger Foundation stated that the organization now intends to work more closely with ecosystem stakeholders while continuing to support the long-term growth of the XRP Ledger. The post stressed that community cooperation remains central to the network’s future direction, with the Foundation aiming to strengthen collaboration across every layer of the ecosystem.
