Braza's USDB is fully backed by U.S. and Brazilian government bonds, ensuring transparency, trust, and full compliance for digital financial operations.
The new stablecoin USDB is now available to both institutions and retail users via Braza On, promoting broader blockchain adoption in Brazil.
With XRPL's compliance and scalability, Braza aims for USDB to capture 30% of Brazil's USD stablecoin market by the end of 2025.
USDB, a new USD-pegged stablecoin, has been launched by Brazil-based Braza Group on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). The asset is fully backed by U.S. and Brazilian government bonds and aims to support stable, secure, and fast digital transactions.

Braza Expands Digital Offerings on XRPL
Braza Group introduced USDB to broaden its stablecoin portfolio, following the earlier 2025 launch of BBRL. Both stablecoins are issued on XRPL, a decentralized Layer-1 blockchain optimized for real-world asset tokenization. XRPL’s reliability and compliance features were key to Braza's choice of infrastructure, providing a scalable platform for cross-border transactions.
Marcelo Sacomori, CEO of Braza Group, explained that the USDB launch is part of a broader effort to strengthen the digital financial system for both local and global users. He said, “With USDB, Brazilian individuals and companies gain new alternatives to hedge against volatility and speed up their operations.”
He further added that USDB is designed with a strong focus on stability and trust. “We are committed to offering a stablecoin that not only meets but exceeds the highest standards of security and compliance,” Sacomori noted.
Braza currently ranks sixth in Brazil’s interbank operations, with $1.079 billion moved in 24 hours this past April. The institution is already a leader in foreign exchange services and is now expanding its reach into digital markets with a stronger product suite.
Accessible to Institutions and B2C Clients
Initially made available to institutional clients, USDB can now also be accessed by retail users via the Braza On app. The move enables broader use of the stablecoin in everyday financial transactions, including international remittances and value storage.
Sacomori emphasized the inclusive nature of the launch, stating, “USDB not only enables stable commercial transactions but also enhances efficiency and security in the market.” He highlighted the company’s broader objective, adding, “Our goal is to build a network that provides high liquidity for this currency.”
Ripple’s Managing Director for LATAM, Silvio Pegado, commented on Braza’s role in shaping the regional crypto landscape. He said, “By issuing both BBRL and USDB on the XRP Ledger, Braza is helping lay the foundation for a more connected and efficient digital asset community in Brazil.”
Outlook for Growth and Market Share
Looking to the year ahead, Sacomori expressed optimism about regulatory developments in the cryptoasset sector. He shared, “Regulation should make the market safer, especially regarding asset custody for financial institutions, an area where we’re already prepared.”
He also discussed Braza’s growth expectations, saying, “We believe that by the end of next year, USDB could account for about 30% of Brazil’s USD-pegged stablecoin market.” According to Sacomori, the bank’s long-standing presence and innovation in digital finance will drive this expansion.
Forecasting the future of global foreign exchange, Sacomori concluded, “We’re positioning ourselves to lead this movement. Today, we are already a benchmark.” With the launch of USDB, Braza aims to offer a solid bridge between traditional banking and modern blockchain infrastructure.
