Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin draws market attention through support from a leading crypto exchange and the company's ambitious plans.
Analysis of RLUSD Stablecoin
RLUSD stands out due to its dollar peg and being a product of a company known for battles with US regulators. Recently, the stablecoin received approval from the New York State Department of Financial Services and was launched on Ethereum and the XRP Ledger.
Current Status of RLUSD Listings
Bitstamp, one of the first exchanges to support Ripple, has already listed RLUSD. Jack McDonald from Ripple shows confidence in future listings on Coinbase and Binance.
Future Prospects for RLUSD on Exchanges
Despite McDonald's confidence, there are technical challenges for listings on other exchanges, including compatibility and demand, along with exclusive relationships like those between Binance and FDUSD. McDonald hopes exchanges will reconsider exclusive relationship policies. However, a public statement from Coinbase explains it has no exclusive relationship with USDC and supports other stablecoins such as PAX, GUSD, and USDT.
Ripple’s RLUSD is on a strategic path to expand its influence on leading exchanges like Coinbase and Binance. With regulatory approval and market presence, it embodies Ripple's vision for the future in a competitive environment.
