The demand for faster, more transparent, and affordable payments is growing, but cross-border transactions remain slow, costly, and complex. Stablecoins issued on XRPL, like $RLUSD are changing that by enabling faster payments, lower fees, and greater access.

Prime brokerage services, once dominated by big banks, are evolving to bring institutions into DeFi with regulated clearing for derivatives, swaps, and crypto while unlocking trillions in trades. @bgarlinghouse returns for another round of Crypto In One Minute and breaks down how prime brokers simplify clearing between TradFi and DeFi at scale. ⏱️

1/With the signing of the GENIUS Act, we’re seeing more consumer companies, retailers, platforms, and tech firms explore whether they need their own stablecoin. But let’s be clear: launching a stablecoin isn’t like launching a new app. It’s infrastructure. And getting it wrong has real consequences. 🧵

Built for enterprise use cases, $RLUSD delivers the security, compliance, and scale global businesses demand. We appreciate @bluechip_org’s A rating and recognition of $RLUSD as the market’s most trusted stablecoin.
The highest-rated stablecoin on Bluechip has never changed. But today, RLUSD becomes the new #1 ranked stablecoin. Bluechip is beginning coverage for RLUSD by @Ripple with an initial rating of A. This reflects our view that RLUSD is one of the safest stablecoins available. ⬇️

The last major financial regulation bill was passed 15 years ago in response to the 2008 financial crisis. Tomorrow, the signing of the GENIUS Act cements the US’s future in being a leader in truly innovative financial technology – stablecoins. This moment is a historic one, and I, for one, am looking forward to all that is to come as a result of this transformational legislation. Thank you to the bipartisan leaders that got it done – @RepFrenchHill, @GOPMajorityWhip, @CongressmanGT, @RepAngieCraig, @RepDustyJohnson, @RepDonDavis, @RepBryanSteil, @RepRitchie, @SpeakerJohnson, and @RepJoshG.

The GENIUS Act now goes to the President’s desk, and the CLARITY Act moves forward to the Senate – at long last, there’s movement on workable, clear frameworks for crypto and stablecoins that will both foster innovation and protect consumers. This is exactly what the American people have been asking for.
PASSED: The GENIUS Act will create a clear regulatory stablecoin framework for asset innovators to thrive in the U.S., bring our payment system into the 21st century, and preserve the dollar’s dominance as the world’s reserve currency. A massive WIN!
