In addition, the same consensus protocol used by the XRPL transactions will verify the CBDC Private Ledger which is “61,000 times more efficient[3] than public blockchains that leverage proof-of-work.” 

Ripple expects the private ledger to facilitate issuing of currencies, and stated that its native digital asset XRP[4] can be leveraged as a “neutral bridge asset for frictionless value movement between CBDCs and other currencies.”

The firm stated that the private ledger is set to handle “tens of thousands” of transactions per second initially and that it has the potential to scale to “hundreds of thousands TPSs over time.”
