The XRP community eagerly awaited Schwartz’s address, gleaning key insights from his presentation. Schwartz promised further details regarding the stablecoin in the coming month. He mentioned potential names from the community like the Ripple stablecoin, USDRipple USDR, and USDX. However, he did not reveal the name of the stablecoin, telling the audience they would have to keep referring to it as the Ripple stablecoin for now.
The company will unveil these details during the XRPL Apex event scheduled for June 11-13 in Amsterdam. He urged the audience to attend the event.
While specifics remain undisclosed, Schwartz’s brief comments on the Ripple stablecoin have generated significant excitement among XRP holders and the broader cryptocurrency landscape. Industry experts anticipate the stablecoin to be a major catalyst for institutional adoption of XRPL.

The proposed Ripple stablecoin is expected to be pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar, drawing its backing from a combination of secure financial instruments such as U.S. dollar deposits, short-term U.S. government treasuries, and other cash equivalents. This transparency in reserve management aims to foster trust and stability within the XRPL ecosystem.
By leveraging the inherent strengths of XRPL, including its native decentralized exchange (DEX) and AMM functionalities, which Schwartz also spoke about in the interview, Ripple’s stablecoin could be a game-changer. This strategic move also positions the XRP Ledger as a strong contender within the burgeoning stablecoin market.
However, the excitement around the upcoming stablecoin has raised questions about XRP’s role in the ecosystem. Schwartz recently addressed these questions, assuring the community that XRP and the stablecoin will be used where they function best.
