Ripple Plans Regulated Stablecoin to Compete in U.S. Digital Finance Market

On Friday, XRP’s price was closer to $2, and there were rumours that New York regulators approved Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin. Also spurring the XRP price further was a potential launch of an XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF), which is being discussed for 2025, adding even more bullish momentum with analysis indicating a very high possibility of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) endorsement.

Ripple has given regulated stablecoin that directly competes with some stable alternatives to XRP. The legal move sets up Ripple as a serious competitor to long-standing issues of US stablecoins, such as Tether and Circle.

After very difficult years of wrestling with the SEC, XRP warms up to institutional investors in the hope of much easier regulation, especially with the possibility of a re-election of Donald Trump.
