Can RLUSD Improve Liquidity and Global Payments?
RLUSD also plays a key role in boosting liquidity for both cross-border payments and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications on the XRP Ledger. By offering a price-stable digital asset, it enables smoother transactions for institutions and businesses. According to Saldana, RLUSD complements XRP by often using it as a bridge currency when users convert RLUSD into other tokens, which helps drive additional demand for XRP and strengthens its position in global payment flows.
