Ripple’s stablecoin RLUSD has witnessed a remarkable increase in trustlines following its final approval by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS).
Trustlines are a key XRP Ledger (XRPL) feature that allows users to establish secure connections to specific assets. Recent data highlights a surge in activity for RLUSD, as the stablecoin nears its launch.
The data, shared by crypto influencer JackTheRippler (@RippleXrpie), reveals a large number of trustline creations on December 11, 2024. Each transaction shows trustlines being established for 1,000,000 RLUSD tokens.

Ripple made waves in the crypto sector by creating an enormous 10,000 trillion RLUSD trustlines recently, and this increased activity has increased speculation that the stablecoin launch is imminent.
RLUSD is crucial for Ripple’s broader strategy to enhance global payment systems. The stablecoin, backed by Ripple and operating on XRPL and Ethereum blockchain, aims to provide fast and secure financial solutions.
The approval by NYDFS, a leading regulatory body in the United States, shows the company’s desire to act within the rules of a proper regulatory body while giving its users the best offering on the market.
RLUSD offers several advantages. Its decentralized architecture supports efficient transactions, low fees, and seamless cross-border payments. As part of Ripple’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) system, RLUSD is designed to facilitate instant settlement, making it a powerful tool for international trade and finance.

How Will This Affect XRP?
The debate on XRP’s role in the ecosystem is important, as the announcement of RLUSD caused some incorrect speculation that the company was abandoning XRP. Ripple’s system works with both tokens and will use the best asset for each transaction so users always get the cheapest and fastest transactions.
XRP is the foundation of the XRPL. It also serves as a bridge currency and performs many other functions like being used for trading fees and more. Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO) David Schwartz recently delved into the unique roles of both assets, explaining how RLUSD will enhance liquidity on the ledger and help the ecosystem grow.
The regulatory approval from NYDFS marks a significant milestone. The implications of RLUSD’s growth extend beyond individual users. Businesses and financial institutions could leverage the stablecoin for secure, cost-effective transactions. Ripple’s broader vision includes enhancing global liquidity and promoting financial inclusion—areas where RLUSD can play a transformative role.
