False! RLUSD the Stablecoin that will eat the market is underpinned by Xrp. It will be used in every transaction and will also be massively accumulated and held by 20+ Xrp ETFs that will be approved in the next month or 2. Do some research before you make stupid comments!
Sure! Right now I’m lending weETH on AAVE. Virtually zero lending yield but you get 3% or so from staking. Also some Ether.fi points but I have no idea how much yield or $ that translates into. Then I borrow whatever stable has the lowest cost. Right now it’s crvUSD or EURC (2-5%). Then I swap for RLUSD and lend on AAVE for a bit over 10% yield. Other solid options are Pendle (USDe or cUSDO PT for 13-15% fixed yield) and Euler (a bit over 10% for USDC and USDT pools). These are relatively low risk options. You can probably find higher yields on concentrated pools and whatnot. Also I usually borrow around 50% of my collateral to avoid liquidation yield. But it’s nice earning some extra yield while keeping exposure to ETH
tldr; XRP's price may rise by 75% due to three key factors: technical analysis showing bullish patterns like a flag and cup-and-handle, increasing odds of SEC approval for spot XRP ETFs, and growth in the XRP Ledger ecosystem. The bullish flag pattern suggests a target price of $4.6, while the cup-and-handle pattern indicates a potential rise to $5.2. Additionally, rising interest in XRP ETFs and the expansion of Ripple's ecosystem, including its RLUSD stablecoin and payment solutions, are driving optimism for XRP's future performance. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

The stablecoins used include USDCV, EURCV, USDG, PYUSD, RLUSD, among others.
XRP in November. Buy RLUSD now and ussseeeee them. The more you use the stablecoin the more XRP it burns. The higher the price goes. XRP is $3.00 today. Say you got $10,000.00. You buy in at $3.00 November it goes to $18.00. That's six times the amount. 10 k turned into $60,000.00 minus taxes. That's enough for any life investment. Business House Stock Bonds Marriage. Just use the coins. Send them to a friend, pay for a massage, or pay back a loan. Ussssee the stable coins. #Freegame

I just want to say.. never buy fiat and hold. Always buy a stable. Tether, USDC, RLUSD. Any should be fine. *wink*.. ;•}
Their history shows that they know what they’re doing, however, when you dive into it things start to look sus and that it’s slowly falling apart. This whole time they have been partnering up with banks, credit card companies, swift, setting up payment rails etc. all of it seems to have been pretty successful leading to a bigger marketcap because it’s all happening behind closed doors. 1. Swift fell through 2. Big banks aren’t using them, so they will just become their own bank. 3. Stablecoin launch. this sort of defeats the purpose of xrp in the states since it costs the same amount of money to send RLUSD as it would xrp without any of the market risks of xrp. This is going to really be the first time we see if Ripple is able to pivot from failing partnerships and plans falling through from their original value proposition of being the coin for banks. I’m interested to see how this will play out and what choices Brad will make moving forward. All I know is that pivoting costs money, being a bank costs money. Guess who’s going to front that bill through the inflation of the XRP coin? The only reason why I don’t invest in XRP is because whether you like to admit it or not, Ripple is dumping XRP every month via escrow causing inflation. If they had partnerships lined up and what not, why would they be dumping a coin at $3 that is supposed to go to $300? Again, I’m definitely interested to see what’s going to happen, for me it’s all a bit risky, especially at these prices.
Wrong. The only fully compliant stablecoin in the US right now, with regard to the new GENIUS act, is USDtb, which is basically the act’s poster child. Neither USDC nor RLUSD is actually certifiably compliant despite what they claim in the media.
Exactly. If Ripple walked away from the SEC mostly clean, a few banks asking for extra scrutiny probably won’t stop them. Apparently they’re saying it’s part of the process and requisites for getting a national trust charter. This isn’t a typical retail bank application either. It’s to serve big institutions, tapping into FED systems, ACH, SWIFT alternatives, and corporate settlement. Some hundreds of billions, maybe trillions, in annual volume. Even a small slice routed through RLUSD would mean serious transaction activity on both ETH and XRPL. Basically real demand and utility for ETH and XRP. Minting, AMMs, liquidity pools, and trustlines, all of it burns gas and locks tokens. I’ve been watching RLUSD like a hawk since its release. It already hit $600M market cap up $200M in just a month and volume is split around 75/25 between ETH and XRPL. It’s about to break the Top 100 for market cap. If Ripple gets this charter that growth could scale fast.
Uphold are giving 5% on stablecoins at the moment, you get the interest paid in usbc and can convert it back into whatever stablecoin you're already holding. I've been buying RLUSD each month now for the past few months to build up some savings while it's earning interest
LMAO!!!!! Of course you dont xerper. >This collaboration involves Bank of America integrating Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin into its internal payment systems. You make this claim then refuse to show proof?
LMAO!!! This again. Every Xerper, ffs. "just wait 2 years bro!!" Show me Bank of Americas official statement they integrated RLUSD then? Fuck your google shit. Show me on their website?
>It’s the Bank Policy Institute who represents all of these banks, not Bank of America coming out and standing alone to say ‘no. Even worse. >The rest is from Google: Thanks for letting me know youre posting AI slop and havent actually looked into what youre posting. >This collaboration involves Bank of America integrating Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin into its internal payment systems. hahahahahahha Is this your [source?](https://www.ainvest.com/news/bank-america-integrates-ripple-rlusd-modernize-payment-systems-2508-3) You truly are special.
You obviously didn’t read the article. It’s the Bank Policy Institute who represents all of these banks, not Bank of America coming out and standing alone to say ‘no.’ And it’s because of unclear crypto regulation and limited timeline for input. The rest is from Google: Yes, Bank of America has deepened its partnership with Ripple, a blockchain technology company. This collaboration involves Bank of America integrating Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin into its internal payment systems. The objective of this integration is to enhance efficiency and reduce costs associated with transactions, particularly cross-border payments. Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin, pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, aims to bridge traditional finance with decentralized infrastructure, offering transparency and stability for corporate finance transactions. Bank of America's adoption of RLUSD demonstrates a growing acceptance of stablecoins within the traditional financial sector. The collaboration is expected to provide operational benefits such as near real-time payment finality, reduced reliance on correspondent banks, and improved liquidity management. It's important to note that while Bank of America is utilizing Ripple's technology for internal payments and exploring blockchain solutions, there can be a distinction between using RippleNet, Ripple's global payments network, and directly using XRP, the digital asset associated with Ripple. The partnership emphasizes Bank of America's commitment to modernizing its financial services through blockchain technology.
tldr; Ripple has applied for a U.S. national trust bank charter through the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to elevate its RLUSD stablecoin to federal standards. If approved, Ripple's subsidiary would issue RLUSD and manage reserves directly via the Federal Reserve, bypassing commercial banks. The charter focuses on custody and tokenization, not retail banking. While the move aligns with upcoming federal stablecoin regulations, it faces opposition from banks citing concerns over public review and traditional banking norms. Ripple emphasizes compliance and transparency in its application. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.
Imo any chain that can support stable coins will thrive. Not just any stable coin either but ones that are fully compliant with USA and EU based regulation being passed for them. A quick look see will net you two stable coins that are the most compliant. #1 is RLUSD, Ripple Labs’ stable coin. #2 is USDC, Circle’s stable coin. RLUSD can be transacted on either ETH Mainnet or XRPL, where ETH and XRP are burned as gas respectively. So you could see that you should pin down which chains and their respective native currencies will thrive leveraging flywheel utility of the native currencies. ETH and XRP get plenty of flywheel utility from stable coin activity on their native chains. This flywheel utility could be stable coin minting, stable coin transactions in general, liquidity pools for currency swapping and bridging, AMM pools, and trustlines established during account/currency creation. All of these create upward pressure on the native currency’s price because of increased demand by the way of utility. Ripple Labs is making a lot of headway in the institutional finance world and some think this may directly interface RLUSD and XRPL to things like ACH, SWIFT, FED, etc. Currently RLUSD’s marketcap is around $600 million, having increase around $200 million in the last 30 days. The ETH Mainnet / XRPL ratio for RLUSD’s volume is around 75/25 ETH/XRPL. Not financial advice but I believe ETH and XRP will thrive simply because of their capture of ever growing stable coin market.
My son and I have come to the same conclusion. However we have a hard time with the retirees certain it's Boca here we come!, college students emergency funds, the kid's 2 full summers of lawn work money that get caught up in the madness. The middle age guy/gal that convinces convinces their spouse to get a 2nd mortgage. Sure, "Only spend what you can afford to lose". Is like liquor companies saying "Drink "Desponsibly" to an alcoholic. invests in something that has some tight metrics but they refuse to share them. Yet, the narrative is they're doing great. Who believes in a complimentary coin situation when an "XRP Adoption" is the touted in Dubai Real Estate when a 1,000,000 purchase uses $1,000,000 in RLUSD and $.00001in XRP, yep that's huge for XRP (this took less than 5 minutes to research).
You know XRP existed before ripple? Ripple are a company with heavy ties to XRP, the creators of it created Ripple and Ripple spend billions investing in making XRP a success, a small example would be buying hidden roads for 120 odd billion, which deals with trillions of dollars of transactions a year, and they will now use RLUSD for some of those transactions.
Personally I would stay away from USDT ; It wasn't good enough to comply Mica regulations in Europe, and it doesn't seem to meet the Genius act standards in the US either - hopefully it's all above board but idk seems like a black swan event waiting to happen - much happier in USDC or RLUSD :)
I Would trust Brad and ripple far more than michael Saylor and MSTR - RLUSD is the most regulated stable coin, meanwhile Saylor says proof of reserves aren’t a good idea - Ripple was criticized for being ‘the bankers coin’ for a long time but now is positioned well as the lines between crypto / trad fi start to blend… Old crypto holders were very anti-gov anti-tax / Wild West but seems like now people want things to be tradfi adjacent because it means banks institutions govts can all bring money in … newer investors don’t really care about the old ideals and goalposts are switched - as things move from Wild West to Wall Street

Don’t let all these greaseballs in the comments fool you about trash stablecoins that aren’t compliant. There’s only one stablecoin that is fully compliant with the new legislation and that is RLUSD. RLUSD can be transacted on ETH and XRPL and currently that is at about a 70/30 split ETH/XRPL. If any two cryptos are going to benefit the most from this stablecoin era it is ETH and XRP. Don’t believe? Just look it ya mealymouthed muppet motha trucka.
Banks don't need to use the same "software". They don't need to use the same chains or even the same stable coins though, thanks to proof of reserve and CCIP again. This is also where the difference between XRP and ripple raises its ugly head again. XRP is currently and historically a great trade. The game is to trade the hype cycle with XRP. It doesn't have any legs, though. Its an antiquated solution to a cutting edge and evolving market. This is precisely why they brought out the RLUSD
In a world of no usd though its irrelevant. Stable coins make it the same amount of steps, but this isn't even very important. Sol >usd stable coins > RWF Or even better sol> Rwandan tungsten RWA for example. Its use is more for consumer transfers from minor nation to minor nation, which I doubt is 14%. RLUSD will be more useful than XRP in almost all scenarios. Even more useful will be chainlink. An Oracle is needed in any cryptographic currency or RWA trade. Undoubtedly CCIP will secure the inevitable bridge transactions needed and ACE will make sure that the transaction is compliant.
The real crypto use case appears to be real world asset tokenisation from stable coins to land deeds etc and this the avenue the XRPL is taking from Ripple’s pov currently in addition to the use of RLUSD that’s on the XRPL for money transmission. Circle also has begun to issue its USDC on the XRPL. https://gulfnews.com/amp/story/business%2Fproperty%2Fripple-ties-up-with-ctrl-alt-to-secure-tokenised-property-title-deeds-in-dubai-1.500199420 There’s whole lot more additions to the XRPL like the EVM sidechain and not to mention the added capability of FLARE network’s unique bridging solution that gives XRP its own yield bearing mechanism. One example: (Saudi royalty are involved in this) https://www.coindesk.com/business/2025/06/11/vivopower-to-deploy-usd100m-in-xrp-on-flare-add-ripple-usd-for-treasury-operations
usdt is already limited in Europe. And now with the Genius act passed into law in the states, it’s days are numbered there as well. There’s a reason usdt is rated D. It openly has audit issues. And as most many not know, it also props up the Beta Test Coin. usdt’s days are literally numbered. They will try to create another…but it’ll never have an A rating, such as RLUSD
Primarily the lack of stables is due to USDC and USDT not supporting UTxO chains like BTC, ADA, etc due to technical issues, plus they want 'control of freeze and seize - which is not available on UTxO's... Stables are only implemented on account based models which can do this. Ultimately I'd hope for RLUSD for more liquidity.
> isn't the whole point of a currency that we accept it for convenience (and not barter with other goods like gold?) depends, currency replaced money. the two terms are often incorrectly interchanged, they both dont have the same properties/characteristics. Id say letting people choose which "asset" they wish to hold is a stronger method than currency, everyone can send whatever they have of value and receive what they value back in return. >Surely the endgame here is adoption of a single currency due to its purchasing power (e.g. choosing to accept XRP instead of the stables)? Stablecoins enhance XRP not compete with it. the worlds first DEX was created on the XRPL in 2012, the same is true for RWA's and stablecoins. Both were first created/issued on the XRPL before any of those things were even terms in the space. What really matters is liquidity and value. that is what the XRPL has been focused on, thats why Ripple is issuing RLUSD, it increases liquidity for the XRPL.
They are rubbing their hands waiting to dump on banks. And the bankers must be laughing hysterically buying RLUSD. Lol.
In other news, RLUSD volume yesterday was 150%~ 🤔 and 57mil added to mrkt cap
Respectfully , I think you’re the one stuck in 2017 — because it’s 2025, and Ripple just introduced RLUSD. If XRP were so essential, why is Ripple building a stablecoin for ODL? Answer: because institutions don’t want XRP volatility. They want compliance, predictability, and rails they can trust. XRP is a bus. And only poor people take the bus. That’s not a dig — it’s the economic truth. XRP is reused, recycled, and redistributed like a transit ticket. It’s fast and cheap because it’s meant to be forgotten after use. That’s not what scarcity looks like. That’s not what enforced value looks like. No staking. No burn. No requirement to hold. High turnover doesn’t create high value — it destroys it. The more velocity you have without lockup or friction, the less each token is worth. RLUSD is the evolution of ODL. They just don't know how to tell bag holders yet. You can hold hope. Institutions will hold RLUSD.
They track USDG, which has a lower market cap ranking than RLUSD. Strange but not your fault. I still bookmarked the resource.
Oh, I guess RLUSD doesn't have a large enough value to make it into the rankings then? Maybe Visa only track the 10 biggest stablecoin chains? Sorry, I should have checked before posting that it actually included XRP!
That's a nice resource. A bit disappointing that it doesn't include RLUSD.
Genius Act benefits stablecoins. XRP has RLUSD. ETH has more. If the genius act decides your investment choice, it wouldn't be towards XRP. It's more beneficial to other chains.
ripple becoming a bank is insane if you think about it. if it does, all deposits become a part of the fractional reserve, meaning that ripple only has to hold 10% of the deposits as cash and use the rest for something else....aka RLUSD.
Or, hear me out, we leave Tether behind and move to fully audited and compliant stables like RLUSD, USDC…that’s it. Those are the only two.
Is RLUSD tied to XRP in any XRP in any form besides owned by Ripple? Terra Luna horror is still on my mind. Talk about Terra Luna, what happened to Do Kwon now? Is he in jail or being pardon yet?
These guys rated RLUSD tied at A-ranking with 3 other tiny stablecoins while USDC is B+? How much did Ripple pay Bluechip?
RLUSD is the most transparent of them all
Unleash the AI: “XRP isn’t dead just because RLUSD is live — in fact, the rise of a regulated stablecoin reinforces XRP’s role as the liquidity and gas backbone that powers every transaction on XRPL. Every RLUSD swap, bridge, and payment burned or locks XRP via AMMs, boosts fees, and creates ongoing demand — unlike USDC on Algorand, this stablecoin growth directly drives XRP utility and scarcity. With live bank-grade rails (BNY, AMINA), EVM, SWIFT extensions, and looming ETFs, this isn’t hype — it’s a real institutional flywheel that Ethereum or Solana don’t have.” Solid points. Currently the breakdown of RLUSD’s transacting networks is 70/30 ETH/XRPL. RLUSD is slowly but surely gaining in market cap, with a few hundred million increase within the last 45 days. It is the most regulated stablecoin on the market at the moment. The only close second is USDC but it doesn’t have as many rails/interfaces to huge pools of liquidity like RLUSD will. RLUSD and stablecoins didn’t bury XRP, if anything they’ve breathed new life into it.
From gemini pro, prompt without preference: asking gemini to tell the cold hard truth ; Excellent question. The analysis you've provided is a sharp, coherent, and widely held articulation of the fundamental challenge facing XRP. It correctly identifies the core tension between its intended utility as a high-velocity bridge asset and the requirements for long-term price appreciation. It is not wrong; however, it is incomplete. Here is the cold, hard, objective analysis that adds the necessary counterpoints and nuance. The Analysis is Correct, But Its Premises are Too Simple The provided text frames the situation as a binary choice: either XRP works as a bridge, or stablecoins/CBDCs do the job better, rendering XRP a purely speculative token. The reality of the global financial system is far messier, and this is where the counter-argument lies. The "paradox" is real, but it's better described as a classic network adoption problem—a "chicken and egg" scenario that all platform technologies face. The core of the objective counter-argument rests on three points the original text under-emphasizes: * The unstated but significant frictions and risks of a stablecoin-centric system. * The functional necessity of a higher XRP price if its utility thesis is ever proven at scale. * The strategic value of a neutral, jurisdiction-agnostic bridge asset in a world of competing, politicized digital currencies. 1. The Cold Hard Truth About Stablecoins The provided text presents stablecoins as a near-perfect solution. They are not. For an institution like a bank or large payment processor, which operates on a timescale of decades and must price in tail risk, stablecoins present their own set of profound challenges: * Massive Counterparty Risk: A dollar-pegged stablecoin like USDC is a liability on its issuer's (Circle's) balance sheet. Its value is entirely dependent on the solvency of that single entity and the verifiable quality of its reserves. A "bank run" on Circle, a regulatory freeze of its assets, or an accounting scandal could render billions in USDC worthless or inaccessible overnight. XRP, for all its volatility risk, has no central issuer in this sense. It is a bearer asset whose primary risk is market-driven, not institutional. For a risk manager at a global bank, this is a night-and-day difference. * The "Last Mile" Liquidity Nightmare: The text correctly identifies the need for pre-funded liquidity. But it underestimates the severity of this problem. A stablecoin model requires a liquid USDC <> Thai Baht market, a liquid USDC <> Brazilian Real market, a liquid USDC <> South African Rand market, and so on for every corridor. Each of these requires local banking partners, regulatory approvals, and market makers. This creates a fragmented system where liquidity is siloed. The promise of XRP is to pool this liquidity into Fiat_A <> XRP <> Fiat_B. Instead of needing thousands of individual trading pairs, you only need liquid pairs against a single, highly efficient bridge asset. * The Coming Stablecoin Wars: We are not heading toward a world with one stablecoin; we are heading toward a world with many. There will be a USDC (US), a EUROC (Europe), a PYUSD (PayPal), Ripple's own RLUSD, and eventually, government-sanctioned CBDCs. Will a bank in Japan want to settle a transaction with a Brazilian bank using a stablecoin regulated by the United States? This re-introduces jurisdictional and FX friction. A truly neutral, non-sovereign bridge asset could become the preferred intermediary to swap between these competing stablecoins and CBDCs—a "Switzerland" for digital currency. 2. Solving the "Paradox": Price as a Functional Prerequisite The text claims that if nobody holds XRP, its price won't appreciate. This misses a critical point. For XRP to function as a bridge for transactions of significant value, the price of XRP must be high. Imagine Ripple's On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) needs to facilitate a $100 million cross-border payment. If the price of XRP is $0.50, moving that value would require 200 million XRP tokens. A transaction of that size would exhaust the order books on most exchanges, causing massive price slippage and rendering the transfer non-viable. Now, imagine the price of XRP is $10. The same $100 million transfer would only require 10 million XRP. The impact on market liquidity would be far smaller, making the transaction faster and cheaper. Therefore, price appreciation is not merely a speculative byproduct; it is a functional prerequisite for the network's utility at scale. If you believe ODL will capture even a tiny fraction of the multi-trillion dollar daily FX market, you must necessarily believe that the price of XRP will be orders of magnitude higher than it is today to support the value flowing through it. The speculators and LPs holding the token are betting on this future utility, which requires a higher price to function. 3. The Bottom Line: It's an Execution Risk, Not a Logic Flaw The bearish analysis you provided is a perfect articulation of what happens if Ripple fails to achieve scaled adoption. If ODL does not become a critical piece of financial plumbing, then yes, XRP's value will be untethered from utility and will remain purely speculative, vulnerable to being chipped away by more straightforward solutions. However, the objective counterpoint is that the alternative "simpler" solutions have their own severe, understated complexities. * XRP's success does not depend on stablecoins failing. It depends on stablecoins not being the perfect, one-size-fits-all solution for every type of global payment. * The investment case for XRP is a high-risk bet on institutional adoption. It's a bet that global banks and payment providers will eventually conclude that the risks of a fragmented, counterparty-heavy stablecoin system are greater than the market volatility risk of a neutral bridge asset. * Ripple’s legal clarity in the U.S. is a non-trivial advantage. In a world where regulation is the biggest existential threat to crypto, having a degree of legal clarity for institutional use is a powerful, bank-friendly asset. The cold, hard truth is that the future of finance will be a hybrid system. Stablecoins will dominate certain corridors and use cases. But for the complex, high-value, and exotic cross-border settlements that are the lifeblood of global trade, the case for a neutral, efficient, and sufficiently liquid bridge asset remains powerful. The question is not whether the logic holds, but whether Ripple can execute on its vision before competitors solve their own inherent problems.
😂😂😂😂 The genius bill which is now in Law will show all you haters exactly what RLUSD/XRP is about. This nonsense you keep posting is for amateurs who know nothing about Crypto. I have been around since the early days
Dead is overdramatizing. XRP still serves as a bridge asset in corridors where liquidity is needed. RLUSD does not make XRP useless. But it does make XRP less important.
I reckon it’s artificially been used to inflate the price of bitcoin, they seem to print a billion at a time out of thin air. RLUSD and USDC are no where near that despite having more backing, ripple is a private company with an estimated 100-115 billion in value so I don’t see how tether is worth anything near that.
>On a smaller scale if 1 XRP equals $5,000 then 5,000 RLUSD will be worth $1. No 5,000 RLUSD would be worth $5000... also 5,000$ XRP isnt happening. stop posting and do SO SO SO much more reading.
It’s a possibility when Ripple signed a deal for RLUSD being launched on a trust worth $50 Trillion. There could be a contract where the trust invests $1-5 Trillion into XRP to maintain a constant value of whatever price and set a floor for RLUSD.
I never said XRP would explode and honestly it could take 100+ years to ever top $100. I pointed out a possibility of how RLUSD will be backed. XRP back go to $10 and stay there for all I care and my theory still stands that 10 RLUSD is 1 XRP and RLUSD needs something to back its 1:1 valuation. Whether they rely on Ripple Network, their blockchain networks or whatever. XRP could crash to $0.50 & it still wouldn’t change my mind that 10+ years down the road if Ripples international license goes through or whatever then 1 RLUSD will be worth 2 XRP. Post is literally a satire explanation that RLUSD needs backed by something to have any 1:1 valuation.
I never said this was a moon post? I pointed out a possibility of how RLUSD will be backed. XRP back go to $10 and stay there for all I care and my theory still stands that 10 RLUSD is 1 XRP and RLUSD needs something to back its 1:1 valuation. Whether they rely on Ripple Network, their blockchain networks or whatever.
Go for it. I own about 30 different crypto currencies lmao been here since 2017. Still holding 15 BTC, 3.5mil DOGE, 250,000XRP & 1mil XLM… countless others. To call me a XRP schizo is hilarious. I’m just sharing an idea of how Ripple is establishing RLUSD to get approved for their international banking license.
That’s essentially what I was trying to explain it other words. If XRP is $2,500 then $2,500 RLUSD is worth 1 XRP.
5,000 RLUSD would be worth 1 XRP in your example, not $1. Every token needs liquidity to come from somewhere.
RLUSD will be backed by XRP and XLM
Ripple launched RLUSD, a stablecoin on XRPL in 2025. Even Ripple knows XRP is dead.

You clearly don’t understand how any of this works. The Genius Act applies to stablecoins, not XRP. XRP is a utility token, not a stablecoin, and it’s the native gas that powers the XRP Ledger. Ripple’s new stablecoin (RLUSD) is launching on XRP Ledger, which means XRP is still needed to move it, pay fees, and route liquidity. XRP isn’t being replaced. It’s already used today by SBI Remit, Tranglo, and Coins.ph for real cross-border payments. No hype, just real usage. Calling XRP a meme coin while ignoring its live financial corridors is pure cope. The real memes are the ones with dog logos. XRP is solving real problems. You’re just loud on Reddit. Do you not know what L1 native gas tokens are? $SOL is not Solana Network and $ETH is not Ethereum they're SEPARATE. They're GAS tokens which fuels the entire blockchain. It's the electricity that powers your entire House. NOTHING runs WITHOUT the gas token. Anything that goes on the XRP ledger will REQUIRE the use of the $XRP gas token. This is what LAYER1 is it's not an APPLICATION token it's the GAS. Native gas tokens are historically known to mint new millionaires. If $SOL and $BTC were application tokens the price wouldn't be where it is today.
😂😂😂 You posted pure emotion, not facts. XRP isn’t a scam. It’s the gas for a real blockchain used by SBI, Tranglo, and others. Courts ruled it’s not a security. Ripple sells XRP transparently and uses it to build products like RLUSD and acquire partners like Metaco. That helps XRP’s utility, not just shareholders. XRP isn’t stock just like ETH or SOL. You don’t get equity, you get access to a real network. Comparing XRP to a Disney cup is just lazy. If XRP were a scam, it wouldn’t be powering real payment corridors in Asia while most of crypto is still figuring out what they even do. And yeah i’m up nearly 400% on XRP since July 2024, going from about $0.51 to $2.50 today. If people listened to your Bitcoin FUD, they would’ve missed that too. How much are you up on Mr BTC? 😂 Satoshi warned exactly about what's happening to Bitcoin: centralization, regulation, and control. XRP's closer to his vision than BTC is now.
This is just nonsense. XRP isn’t some meme coin. It’s literally being used right now by SBI Remit, Tranglo, and Coins.ph for real cross border payments. That’s actual on-chain utility, not speculation. It’s the native gas token for the XRP Ledger. Every transaction runs on XRP. That’s how a real Layer 1 works. You’re mad it’s not stock? ETH isn’t stock either. Nobody complains when Ethereum builds. Ripple didn’t dump and disappear. They disclose sales, return XRP to escrow, and use those funds to build infrastructure that supports XRP adoption. RLUSD, Metaco, Hidden Road those aren’t distractions, they’re building blocks. You're confusing Ripple with XRP. You’re holding the token that powers a real-time payment network. It’s doing more than most of this space combined. Stay salty.
XRP is a bank-themed meme coin being sold to crypto uncles and dentists who think they're betting on some kind of "banks + blockchain" thesis. Ripple sells you their zero-cost XRP takes your cash, and uses your money to either buy back Ripple stock, acquire companies like Hidden Road, or launch services like RLUSD for payments. All of these profits are solely internalized to Ripple Labs shareholders. Nothing goes to XRP holders (beyond microscopic burn on XRPL). In fact, 99% of the money Ripple Labs has comes from token sales; so it's even worse than just not sharing profits with you if they were actually generating revenue from their protocol being adopted. They dump on you and* don't share with you any of the things *YOU* capitalized for them.
You’re seriously underrating XRP because of Bitcoin cult blindness. Let’s check THE FACTS first, not Reddit hype: RippleNet has 300+ financial partners in 45 countries, and 40% of them use XRP for On-Demand Liquidity. ODL volume topped over $15 billion in 2024, up 32% from 2023 Tranglo is not just a message-passing stunt. Ripple acquired 40% in March 2021 to power XRP-based ODL across Southeast Asia. In 2022 alone, Tranglo processed $970 million in ODL, up from $53 million in 2021. That’s real usage, not marketing fluff XRPL on-chain is booming. Over 4.8 million funded wallets and 50,000 to 70,000 active wallets daily, up 25 percent year over year. On-chain transactions hit up to 251 million in Q1 2024, up 108 percent quarter over quarter. DEX volume rose 18 percent, and average fees dropped 45 percent Stablecoins and real-world assets are pouring into the XRPL. USDC, XSGD, EUROP, and RLUSD are live. $500 million RLUSD was minted in Q2 2025. Tokenized money market funds are launching. Large AMM pools are active, and AMM clawback features for compliance are enabled XRPL has processed over 2.8 billion cumulative on-chain transactions and is gaining traction with institutions exploring tokenization at scale Bottom line: XRP isn’t parked in wallets. It is powering massive, real-world, institutional and OTC flows. There are no bottlenecks. XRPL is alive, growing, scalable, compliant, and increasingly institutional. So yeah, next time you say "they don’t use XRP," you’ll sound like a Bitcoin shill who ignored $15 billion in ODL volume, nearly $1 billion in stablecoin minting, major tokenized fund launches, and explosive wallet and transaction growth. Reality check first. These are literally my factual notes. I do my due diligence..You're speaking to win an argument to favor an old tech like your obsessed with some rookie card hoping it makes you rich someday 😂
>Banks around the world are not going to send USDC by the billions of dollars. I know, banks will send their own issues stables. >You don't know how the XRP/ripple system works. [I do.](https://ripple.com/ripple-press/ripple-selects-bny-to-custody-ripple-usd-reserves/) "RLUSD has been purpose-built for enterprise utility, particularly in improving the speed, cost and efficiency of cross-border payments." >swift which takes many days and costs a ton. Once again, Swift is not going to roll over. They have adapted to use blockchain with their existing legacy systems. Do you guys even read what theyre doing? I sent you 3 links in the first post that you seem to ignore. >The token XRP would be used to pay for gas fees Thats all it is. A gas token. If it wasnt, they wouldnt have said this about RLUSD. ""RLUSD has been purpose-built for enterprise utility, particularly in improving the speed, cost and efficiency of cross-border payments." Why make the distinction, if they do the same thing? >It would be nice if less people on Reddit felt that their lack of understanding equals a problem with the theory. Ironic, considering you dont know what Swift is or how they operate. Why are you ignoring Swifts blockchain research?
Yep, Ripple and RLUSD are tearing it up. Ripple has a very bright future, XRP not so much. They could develop some new use cases that couldn't be usurped by RLUSD, but that doesn't seem to be a priority.
Yep Tether left Europe because it couldn’t pass an audit - it will fall short of Genius as well… RLUSD and USDC are both way more transparent
Game over. You said institutions want “nothing to do” with the public XRPL yet Dubai just tapped it to tokenize **$16 BILLION** in real estate, fully on-chain. You claimed it’s only about Ripple Labs remittance software yet **Ondo Finance**, a major RWA player, *chose the public XRPL* to bring tokenized U.S. Treasuries on-chain via **RLUSD**, Ripple’s new stablecoin. And now Ripple’s acquisition of **Hidden Road**, which is a prime broker means XRPL is being hardwired directly into institutional finance. XRP is becoming it's own BANK! 😂 You’re arguing based on the past. The world’s moving forward. XRPL isn’t just surviving it’s quietly becoming the backbone of global tokenization. The facts don’t care how emotional you are about Bitcoin. XRP Ledger is winning. Publicly. XRPL is a scaling!!!
Youre actually thinking of XRP as a bridge currency. Thats why they created RLUSD.
RLUSD is a stablecoin. I mean a token people go to xrp chain to buy obviously. $200m is a minuscule portion of RWA market and of course amounts planned/announed are 10x what actually goes through you can check stats by chain here: app.rwa.xyz
Without even looking I already knew RLUSD was in the top 400 (#112) so your facts have holes - In June they passed 7.1 million wallets, with a new high of 295k daily active wallets (and growth to over 2700 wallets with 1m+ XRP) “On June 15, the network processed over 5.1 million transactions in a single day.” Just in the last 8 hours “Digital asset platform Mercado Bitcoin plans to tokenize more than $200 million in permissioned real-world assets (RWAs) on the XRP Ledger (XRPL).” The second tokenised Dubai property sold via PRYPCO on the XRPL went in under 2 minutes between 149 investors from 35 countries Sounds like more than ‘zero adoption’ and far more utility than a meme 🤔 Do you think all of the memes / pumpfun really add a ton of value for SOL? When I had SOL I found it very hard to find any information about SOL itself because it was drowned out behind everyone shilling memes, or complaining about snipers / bots / presales / telegram scams / phantom hacks : SOL pumped hard with XRP around the time of the election, but XRP has held onto those gains far better despite all the metrics you used being stronger for SOL? (Ie. #2 TVL) ETH is #1 but is down 22.1% over the last year
Still said a meme, and there is some adoption through Vivofit wellsgisitics wibus, and then adoption via acquisitions with ripple acquiring metaco / hidden road / money transfer licenses and now applying to get banking licenses as well - stablecoins running on the XRPL too, RLUSD EUROP USDB XSGD, and USDC available on XRPL now as well - all seems adoption related
USDT is sketchy… don’t trust your money in it… it couldn’t meet the requirements for MiCa so isn't up to standard in Europe… far better off with USDC or RLUSD… both Ripple and Circle have filed for banking licenses as well now… I sold all my SOL when the Trump coin launched - turned out to be the top for SOL, now its back at November levels - XRP has been the top performer since the election
“Direct Access to U.S. Payment Systems A U.S. banking license would give Ripple: • Direct connectivity to the Fedwire, ACH, and SWIFT networks → Ripple can move RLUSD and fiat seamlessly. • Ability to hold deposits, issue loans, and clear payments in-house → not reliant on third-party correspondent banks.” This will translate to a boon of volume and liquidity on XRPL. XRP will probably get a nice price boost from this if it pans out.
>They will approve the Federal Reserve Master Account access they are applying for here and RLUSD and XRP will be government certified like it has always been planned. They already partnered with literally everybody else. ABAA DTCC ISDA IMF BIS ECB the list goes on and on and on. This is completely false lol DTCC doesn't work with Ripple or use XRPL. [They use their own chain built on hyperledger Besu](https://www.dtcc.com/news/2025/april/02/dtcc-announces-new-platform-for-tokenized-real-time-collateral-management) and [chainlink CCIP to connect private chains together. ](https://www.dtcc.com/dtcc-connection/articles/2023/september/21/bringing-capital-markets-onchain-with-dtcc-and-chainlink)
Very interesting times ahead for Ripple, XRPL, and RLUSD. The EVM update alone was huge. Not long before it the AMM Pool one was as well. All these pieces falling into place. The level of access being built to interface with XRPL is crazy. Saw a crazy couple stats on the volume change after the EVM change went live. From double digit %’s to high 200’s. It’s already growing significantly not even a week after it went live. No telling what happens as it is allowed to thrive and institutional players start getting involved.
The problem with that, is that. RLUSD barely operates on the XRPL. The vast majority lives on Eth and has never even seen the XRPL. https://defillama.com/stablecoin/ripple-usd And even with he pitiful amount of RLUSD on the ledger, XRP is devalued to just a gas token. On a chain with no volume, or TVL. So relatively valueless.
You're talking only $100M it's peanuts...essentially needs stable coin volume - Can't have USDC because it's too technical to implement on a UTXO chain, Circle can't be arsed doing it. ( Plus they hate ADA as being a non VC funded chain and they don't like competition to their EVM account based shit chains. Anyway RLUSD coming soon which has better audit reports.
RLUSD isn't going to promote XRP's price. XRPL is a ghost chain and no one cares about txing it there, and even on Ethereum the demand for it is minimal. > all other coins other then bitcoin look like crap. Lol. Ripple is so irrelevant that even Circle refused to sell to it. Good luck holding to zero.
You’re incoherent, and I’m unemotional about my speculation. It’s clear you don’t understand the mechanics. Stable coins settle using XRP on the XRPL. That includes both RLUSD and USDC. Stable coins are just the on-ramp. Facts are facts and opinions are opinions. Sorry you missed out.
Nah, XRP was a stepping stone for Ripple to launch RLUSD (stablecoin). Retail XRP has become useless and has basically become a memecoin that will never go higher than $3-
No I understand it clearly. After no one adopted ripple net or ODL, they’re now pivoting to a smart contract platform, an EVM side chain. They realized this is what banks actually want, along with stablecoins, RLUSD. But they mint more on ETH anyways, literally today I believe
Essentially it has a low stablecoin mc because Circle don't want to implement the tech to integrate USDC to a UTXO chain- they only like account based models, anyway RLUSD will come soon. Cardano will be the de facto DeFi layer for BTC (Also a natural fit as it's also a UTXO) Check: https://bitvmx.org/ Cardano is fully DECENTRALISED with no VC backing unlike SOL and SUI ( a16z, Poly Market Capital, Multi Coin Capital,Jump Crypto, Coinbase Ventures etc...) Transaction volumes regularly surpass 100,000 - and don't include fake tx's like mev bots and voting tx's like SOL. Influencers are not part of Cardano, you must be thinking of that charlatan of Bitcoin, Saylor..😏
It’s ironic it got hate for being the bankers coin… but now BTC and others want to be the bankers coins as well and get that government / institutional and bank money - Ripple has an edge with all the money transfer licenses they have under their belt and RLUSD - original crypto investors were very anti bank anti gov anti tax crypto is the Wild West… but new investors don’t care about those ideals and as crypto blends with tradfi coins like XRP are well positioned to blend across the two
>Ive stated many times, I want XRPL to integrate CCIP, its just more traffic for chainlink. XRPL is agnostic even though it has an L1 oracle built in, any oracle can be used on the XRPL, any XRPL dev can use CCIP for their use case like how Band Protocol and DIA oracles are being used. >No bank is going to use XRP as a bridge currency What, except for the ones who are? >11k Banks are not going to undermine a system that they own. you must not understand how greed works then, of course they would if it meant they pay less and make more from a company whose VC and board members are a who’s who of respectability and success. >XRPLs only shot at adoption is through Defi when Tradfi connects. You posit as if the chain and coin are not being used, for anything. Such a misinformed take. >This is why they created their stablecoin No, it is because liquidity is the King of all markets, and if Tether can’t pass an audit for MiCA regulations RLUSD can and has, noone in the US or the EU is trying to be beholden to a Chinese coin. >and why they have a EVM chain in development. Ripple is developing an EVM chain because smart contracts on the main net makes zero sense, they don’t own or control the XRPL, they hold no patents pr trademarks of the XRPL or XRP, why would they want the XRPL to try to be everything on one chain when they can develop and control a side chain that offers greater main net security and broader use applications? >But the fact is, XRPL currently has no defi and theyre no where near as successful as their community makes them out to be. You are here on Reddit when the community is on another platform, go where the devs are and learn you don’t know what you don’t know. >This also explains why they used token sales to buy other companies that actually have a product Did you think Google was only a search engine for the last 25 years? Ripple offers an enterprise software suite, they have bought industry leaders in complimenting sectors so that they can offer a wider portfolio of solutions for their clients, they make moves and good ones, Ripple stock imo is undervalued.
I’ve only just learned about XRP ~1 month ago and I’m starting to understand bagholders’ disappointed sentiments who bought in 5+ years ago but I truly believe XRP has some real value and long-term potential. I hope this case study I’ve put together helps clarify my bullish pov. ——————————————— Case Study: XRP -Bank of Int’l Settlements (partnered w Ripple) lists 7 central banks to use XRPL for cross-border settlements: Bank of France, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Swiss National Bank, Fed Reserve of NY & Bank of England. -Cross-border global payments industry: $155T industry // $190T in transactions per annum // $290T by 2030 -Adopted by 8 out of 190 [w/ 30+ potential] central banks to issue their CBDC on the XRPL -Adopted by 80% of Japanese Banks in 2025 ($4.8T in inflows) -China’s Webus Int. created a $330M XRP treasury for cross-border settlements -1700 partnerships w companies under NDA -450M-1.1B XRP [false 53B] in circulation -India bought crude oil from UAE on XRPL -UAE’s Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) uses XRPL for real estate tokenization amid $16B initiative -Grayscale XRP trust launched -BlackRock filed to launch XRP ETF -13 spot XRP ETFs awaiting SEC approval to hedge bets for ETF creators + will add liquidity to XRP ($8B in inflows over 1st year) -VivoPower, Webus Int’l, Trident Digital & Wellgistics have all announced XRP treasury plans (totaling $950M) -Supply control: 37.24B of [100B] supply locked in escrow by Ripple / $1B in XRP released per month + $800M goes back to escrow = $200M released to retail per month -Burn rate: 5k tokens/day -Elon Musk holds 16.783M XRP ($52.35 million); Musk offered to buy Ripple for $25B then re-offered to buy for $50B -European Central Bank launched own stable coin (Digital Euro) on XRPL -Price suppression: SIFIs selling XRP futures; 1 wallet bought $260B XRP on Kraken’s dark pool service to avoid actual price surge -Dubai sold $400M of real estate on XRPL -CEO at Apex2025: w/in 5yrs, XRP will take ~14% of Swift’s daily transaction volume ($5T) = $700B/day which means $437.47 per XRP by 2030 -XRP now listed on NASDAQ -Top stable coins/currencies now listed on XRPL ($RLUSD, $USDC, $XSGD, $EUROP, $USDB) -Ripple announced $700M share buyback (3-5% of RippleLabs) at $175/share -Expected $30B IPO (2nd highest ever) if it does -Valhil Capital’s collateralized fair mkt value per XRP token: $122,500 -Grok3 price simulation: $148.28 per XRP (embedded in calculation: impacts of 13 spot ETFs approved, current burn rate of ~2.4M XRP per annum, institutional treasuries reducing supply, XRPL capturing 25% of $10T in cross-border liquidity, and 3x speculative premium due to institutional FOMO) Utility: monopoly on high-speed/low fee cross-border payments -Speed: 1500 transactions/sec -Fees: $0.00423 per transaction -Transactions settle in 3.004 seconds -Banks & countries will extinguish pre-funded NOSTRO accts & free up 100s of billion for banks & countries to use Personal Forecast: $100 Q4-FY2025 -Replace 1/2 of global financial system (inflows >$400T) ———————————————————— With that being said, I will forever hold on to the ~$1K worth of XRP I bought 2 weeks ago.
Hmm there is still a difference between centralisation and concentration :) as big players own more it doesn’t make things more centralized - but interoperability and multi chain tech does definitely make the future look more interconnected, and blurring the lines between defi / trad fi :) Interesting to see Circle release USDC on the XRPL (RLUSD / EURØP / USDB / BBRL etc) and Vivo’s plan to generate yield on their $100m of XRP using the FLR network! And tokenized realestate sales in Saudi Dubai’s first tokenized property listing sold in 24 hours, and the second sold in under 2 minutes! (Between 149 investors from 35 countries) “Both projects are part of the Dubai Land Department’s (DLD) Property Tokenization Initiative, designed to enhance real estate market accessibility through blockchain-based fractional ownership. The PRYPCO Mint platform, a joint initiative between DLD and PRYPCO, is licensed by the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) and utilizes blockchain technology developed by Ctrl Alt via the XRP Ledger.” Really cool to see the mix of so many techs and startups working together or on the XRPL to bring utility and new opportunities out! :)
Ripple (XRP-USD) just landed a major approval in the UAE — and it's not just another checkbox on a licensing map. Dubai's financial regulator has officially cleared Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin for use within the city's international financial district. + Trump said a few weeks ago XRP will be part of the national digital reserve ;-) It's a hold sir.
Not a dig, truly asking, how old are you and have you completed formal education? You really, and I mean really, don’t parse well. Ripple owns one validator. One. How about you do due diligence before making claims like “that list is “allegedly” not only Ripple servers, but it actually is only Ripple servers”. Where are you getting your info from? Look at the validator list, it’s easy to do. And when I say bad at parsing, here is an example Per the XRPL >Initially, it was believed that 60% overlap between two servers’ UNLs was enough to prevent those servers from forking apart. However, further research showed that in the worst case scenario, 90% overlap was required to prevent a fork. Per you >Also it needs to be 90% the same on every node, meaning, it is basically the same list on every node? Don’t you see the issue with how you interpreted this? I don’t think you do, if you did you wouldn’t misunderstand. >The XRP token is premined by Ripple No. Ripple wasn’t even a company when the coins were created. You don’t know this do you? You really are out here claiming knowledge and don’t know Ripple did not create the XRPL or XRP, they did not pre-mine XRP, they have never once distributed XRP, they do not own a single patent on XRPL or XRP and they don’t own the trademark of XRPL and XRP. Ripple does not own or control the XRPL, it is an open-source decentralized network, the first blockchain created that wasn’t a Bitcoin blockchain, and the first blockchain to have a DEX (Decentralized Exchange). Probably also don’t know 3 guys (David Schwartz, Arthur Britto, Jed McCaleb) created the XRPL, Chris Larsen joined them and they formed the company NewCoin, later named OpenCoin. There was no XRP, it was called XNS at the Genisis. Ledger::pointer firstLedger = boost::make_shared<Ledger>(rootAddress, 100000000); Ledger::pointer firstLedger = boost::make_shared<Ledger>(rootAddress, SYSTEM_CURRENCY_START); define SYSTEM_CURRENCY_CODE “XNS” https://github.com/XRPLF/rippled/commit/f0e3383856a8923e55b0f10e7822de9031b7159e >and it is sold by them to fund their marketing (instagram and youtube influencers) and development. Source on this? You can’t spout off and not be called out for trying to spread lies. >Every XRP in existance has been created by them. Wrong >Almost all utility cases that Ripple has developed evolve around a separated blockchain from the XRP. What are you on about here? Cite your source. >This means that everyone who is buying XRP, is basically just giving them money. Ripple does not sell OTC to customers. Buying XRP is not “basically” just giving them money, where would you get that idea from? Show me on-chain that buying XRP comes from a Ripple wallet, or is connected to a Ripple wallet. You can’t, because Ripple does not sell OTC, the SEC case went over this. >There is no use case for XRP and there will never be any use case for XRP. (Read up on XRPL and the RLUSD) Really? Really?? Ok here is one, how do you open a wallet on XRPL? Here’s another, by what mechanism does the XRPL protect against spammers? XRP is the native Layer 1 coin, saying a native Layer 1 coin has no use case exhibits a total lack of understanding of blockchains. You believing that RLUSD somehow makes XRP pointless shows a lack of fundamental understanding of the XRPL, cross border remittance, crypto regulations, Nostro Vostro, and Native Layer 1 coins. You should read more, post less, and do better at understanding something before you criticize it, your words are foolish and an indicator of your ignorance about the subject matter. Quite frankly it shows you watch YouTube crypto influencers that are counting on your ignorance for clicks and getting paid. Here’s some homework, if you believe the XRPL is centralized, then tell me how just one of these things can happen. how can Someone doublespend? how can Someone reverse transactions? how can Someone create more XRP? how can Someone censor a user from the network? how can Someone force a code update on the network? how can Someone owning XRP get rights to code base, validators, network and governance? Level up, do better, be better.
Wow, how can you defend something so much without have a single clue about what it is? Are you being serious right now? Hang on I will put together a little list for you In XRP every transaction needs to be verified by a server from a pre-approved list. That list is "allegedly" not only Ripple servers, but it actually is only Ripple servers. Also it needs to be 90% the same on every node, meaning, it is basically the same list on every node. So in reality you have only Ripple servers that are approved in the pre-approved list and no other alternatives. This if from their official documentation [https://xrpl.org/docs/concepts/consensus-protocol/unl](https://xrpl.org/docs/concepts/consensus-protocol/unl) "Initially, it was believed that 60% overlap between two servers' UNLs was enough to prevent those servers from forking apart. However, further research showed that in the worst case scenario, 90% overlap was required to prevent a fork" "Currently, the default configuration for XRP Ledger servers uses two lists: one published by the XRP Ledger Foundation, and one published by Ripple. Typically, these lists are very similar to one another or even **identical**." \--- XRP token The XRP token is premined by Ripple, and it is sold by them to fund their marketing (instagram and youtube influencers) and development. Every XRP in existance has been created by them. Almost all utility cases that Ripple has developed evolve around a separated blockchain from the XRP. This means that everyone who is buying XRP, is basically just giving them money. There is no use case for XRP and there will never be any use case for XRP. (Read up on XRPL and the RLUSD)
There could be actually a reason to use XRP - for cross-border payments between different currencies. RLUSD is tied to USD, so for cross-border payments it would be required to have liquidity pools in the destination currency. This is no different than the current SWIFT overall system (Bank A in USA holds a nostro account in Bank B in Europe, and has it pre-funded with X amount of EUR in order to be able to settle transactions between USD and EUR). Ripple wouldn't have an advantage going down this road, probably only the faster transaction times (can this justify the costly replacement of the existing, established system globally?). Other than that - everything remains the same if RLUSD is to be used. Fees would still be high, pools of money would need to be "parked" in nostro accounts of external banks (which means they cannot be used for profit making or investment).
tldr; Dubai’s Financial Services Authority (DFSA) has approved Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin for use within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) starting June 3, 2025. RLUSD, a U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin, is designed for enterprise use with a focus on compliance and transparency. This approval allows DFSA-regulated firms to integrate RLUSD into their services, supporting Ripple’s global expansion and reinforcing Dubai’s position as a digital finance hub. RLUSD is backed 1:1 by U.S. dollars and undergoes third-party audits to ensure reserve integrity. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

The administration at the very least would have to work with the Fed due to bluring fiscal and monetary authority. The Fed launched FedNow last summer, and while it proclaims it isn't a CDBC, let's be real.. it is. Would I buy it? Very little reason to hold a stable coin as it is today, so even if this were a competent administration, no. I would consider buying the L1 it sits on.. Global role.. probably wouldn't have much of any impact to the dollar itself, considering it would be pegged to it and we already have USDC, USDT, and RLUSD. Similar to above, I think the only impact it would hold is having a major government sign off on crypto. It would likely attract fresh retail, but i doubt it would nudge any needle on the institutional side as they've been loading up for the past five years.
I watched it but the APR is still too high compared to wrapped bitcoin. You can put wrapped bitcoin as collateral on aave or compound and borrow stablecoin at 2-5% RLUSD, DAI, USDC, Tether - from smallest to largest APR. Strike promises 9-12% APR on Bitcoin loans and its 12% for the lower amount of collateral and 9% for multi-millions in BTC, I find it interesting he skipped that slide pretty quickly. Im all for DeFi and also Jack Mallers is cool, but this product aint for me maybe for others.
A lot of people throw shade at XRP, but they ignore how efficient XRPL actually is. Fast settlement, low fees, and it’s been running without downtime for over a decade. If RLUSD gains traction on XRPL and starts getting listed on major exchanges, it could seriously compete with USDT and USDC as a transfer medium. Also, it’s ironic how everyone calls it “dead”, but XRP still outperformed most alts in the last year. The chart looks strong, and if utility adoption continues, a $8–$13 target this cycle doesn’t sound unrealistic at all.
The follow conditions 1. Tariffs all gone 2. XRP vs SEC case totally cleared - most likely in June XRP APEX in Singapore 3. ISO20022 14 July 2025 4. Full banks implementation of ISO20022 probably in Nov 2025 5. XRPL based Stable Coins adoptions goes up, e.g. RLUSD, XSGD, USDB 6. Market improved after USA recovers from supply chain issues By end next year….other than China & its Digital Renmibi (e-RMB) there will be many other XRPL based stable coins (3-5 sec) for each country freeing up banks more foreign funds previously reserved for cross border payment under old SWIFT messaging system (3-5days) Small amount of XRP tokens (finite supply) will be burnt permanently for each XRPL transaction Over time XRP can increase in prices once adoption goes higher to improve liquidity per transaction XRP uses a fraction of the energy required per transaction (compared to Bitcoin) & there will be no more minting of XRP token The energy required to mint BTC token exponentially goes up over time causing wastage of energy to produce BTC instead of using on the population. BTC slow transaction makes it harder to do point of sales payment compared to other crypto XRP are well suited for point of sale transactions using crypto wallet apps when banks take over custody of crypto like exchanges after OCC allowed banks to behave like exchanges https://www.cointribune.com/en/occ-clears-us-banks-to-buy-sell-and-custody-crypto-with-third-party-support/ That means one final nail in the coffin- internet of value for XRP = online payment using XRPL based stable coins or XRP directly is possible in a few years time
Exchange to wallet or exchange to exchange. Say I wanna buy "crypto a" on Kucoin, but I have to onboard money via Coinbase. RLUSD would be 99.9% cheaper than buying USDT RLUSD would be 99.9% cheaper when moving it from Coinbase to Kucoin
If RLUSD is on an exchange. It's not on the XRPL.
When RLUSD is available on the large exchanges and people need to move money Are they going to use USDT on ETH Or RLUSD on xrpl
To say nobody uses the network is pretty wild The network is used If RLUSD is in the xrpl it uses xrp Mast majority of RLUSD is on ETH which has no effect on xrp it self Spot ETFs will be the catalyst here
Yea, that's shit if you are holding XRP. But it's stupid to hold it. If you use the network, use RLUSD not XRP. But no one uses the network. I was talking from a decentralisation perspective.
