Ripple USD (RLUSD)

We have signed a basic agreement via SBI VC Trade, the crypto asset exchange subsidiary, to issue and circulate RLUSD in Japan (^^)

Mr. Kitao said they would launch it even before the stablecoin.
I think the flow of releasing, including the decimal issuance of stocks, is inevitable.

Now,
Distributing XR even to shareholders.
Why connect it with stablecoins from other countries? Isn't that right? ✨

One of the biggest misconceptions around $RLUSD is that it’s “just another stablecoin.”

In reality, RLUSD is becoming one of the most regulated stablecoins on the planet.

And over the past 18 months, we’ve seen Ripple systematically expand its regulatory footprint across 3 major financial regions:

🇺🇸 United States
🇦🇪 UAE
🇪🇺 Europe

Let’s start with the US

RLUSD launched under approval from the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS).

One of the most stringent financial regulators in the world.

The stablecoin is issued through Standard Custody, Ripple’s NYDFS-regulated trust company.

Meaning RLUSD operates under reserve, custody, and compliance requirements that many stablecoin issuers simply don’t have.

But Ripple didn’t stop there.

Next came the UAE.

First, RLUSD was approved by Dubai’s DFSA for use within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).

One of the world’s leading international financial hubs.

And more importantly, one Ripple had already partnered with prior!

This allows RLUSD to be used by DFSA-licensed firms operating within Dubai’s regulated financial ecosystem

Then came Abu Dhabi.

RLUSD was recognized by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) as an Accepted Fiat-Referenced Token within ADGM.

The international financial centre of Abu Dhabi.

In less than a year, Ripple secured regulated stablecoin access across both of the UAE’s major financial centres.

And now Europe.

Ripple has received preliminary approval for a Luxembourg CASP licence under MiCA.

Combined with Ripple’s existing EMI licence, this positions Ripple to offer regulated cryptoasset and stablecoin infrastructure across all 30 countries of the European Economic Area (EEA)

This isn’t just about RLUSD.

The licence positions Ripple for broader cryptoasset activities throughout Europe as institutional adoption continues accelerating.

When you zoom out, a pattern emerges.

Most stablecoins focus on exchange listings.

Ripple appears focused on regulatory jurisdictions.

New York.
Dubai.
Abu Dhabi.
Luxembourg.

Some of the most important financial gateways across North America, the Middle East and Europe.

The story here isn’t simply stablecoin growth.

It’s the construction of a globally regulated settlement asset.

The question isn’t whether Ripple is expanding.

The question is how many more jurisdictions come next.

If stablecoins hit $1T market cap, what % do you think $RLUSD will capture? 👀
