Talk of the Town

Ripple's new stablecoin, RLUSD, is set to launch on December 4, pending approval from the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). The overcollateralized dollar-pegged stablecoin will offer a stable alternative amidst Ripple’s ongoing legal battle with the SEC over XRP. Ripple partnered with major exchanges like Bitstamp, MoonPay, and CoinMENA for the stablecoin's launch. The RLUSD will be issued by Standard Custody & Trust Company, a subsidiary Ripple acquired in June. Ripple plans to use RLUSD and XRP for cross-border payments and will conduct regular third-party audits of the stablecoin's reserves.
