Ripple Starts Testing New Stablecoin

As a seasoned analyst with over two decades of experience in the financial industry, I’ve witnessed the rise and fall of numerous digital currencies and stablecoins. With this background, I find myself cautiously optimistic about Ripple’s foray into the stablecoin market with its RLUSD.


In a recent announcement on Friday, the digital currency company based in San Francisco, known as Ripple, revealed that it has begun a private testing phase for its eagerly anticipated stablecoin.

The Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin will be available for beta testing on both XRPL and Ethereum

As a researcher involved in the project, I am looking forward to the beta testing phase where a chosen group of our enterprise partners will have the opportunity to test our new product prior to its public release. Our aim at Ripple is to guarantee that the stablecoin is robustly secure and dependable before proceeding with a broader launch.

During the beta phase, you cannot purchase or exchange the newly developed stablecoin, as it has yet to receive regulatory approval before becoming available for trading, which is part of Ripple’s ambitious plans.

Ripple has issued a caution, advising users to be wary of scammers who may pretend to offer early access to RLUSD during its initial rollout, aiming to exploit the situation.

According to U.Today’s report, Ripple unveiled a webpage dedicated to its stablecoin initiative, promoting it as a solution for payment systems and international remittances.

In April, the cryptocurrency firm focused on enterprises decided to take a daring step into the market for stablecoins. Later, during the XRP Ledger Community Summit in June, Ripple officially unveiled the name of its stablecoin project.

According to Monica Long, the president of Ripple, she anticipates that the highly anticipated stablecoin project will be launched this year.

In addition to being launched on XRP Ledger (XRPL) and Ethereum, it’s anticipated that Ripple’s stablecoin will also be introduced on various other blockchain networks.
