On the 10th anniversary of @RippleSwell, it felt apt to share Ripple’s best year ever, and why the vision for an Internet of Value will be achieved.

🚨 MASSIVE: Coinbase switches on Ripple's $RLUSD across the $XRP Ledger, Base and Ethereum. Coinbase didn't just list RLUSD. It switched it on across the platform. Live starting today: → Coinbase Prime → Coinbase Exchange → The Coinbase app for retail What switched on: → 1:1 conversion from US dollars and other supported USD stablecoins into RLUSD → Deposits and withdrawals on the XRP Ledger, Base and Ethereum → Ripple providing RLUSD liquidity on Base → Next: Coinbase Global Exchange, including RLUSD as collateral In Ripple's words, this brings RLUSD to "the largest institutional client base in the U.S. crypto market." The timing: → Yesterday: Robinhood made RLUSD a key stablecoin across its retail and institutional businesses → Today: Coinbase switches it on → RLUSD: past $2.4 billion in market cap since launching in December 2024 Two of America's biggest trading platforms in two days. RLUSD isn't waiting for distribution anymore. It's being switched on.
Robinhood yesterday. Coinbase today. $RLUSD is now live on Coinbase Prime, Coinbase Exchange and the Coinbase app, with deposits and withdrawals on the $XRP Ledger, Base and Ethereum. The cash leg for RWAs keeps getting bigger. Trensik.com

More good news for $RLUSD this week - @moodysratings has assigned RLUSD an A2 long-term rating and P-1 short-term rating, the highest possible short-term rating under its new stablecoin framework.  TL;DR: RLUSD is the first stablecoin to have ever received an investment-grade Moody’s rating. This is one of the most respected independent credit rating agencies in the world, and a massive validation of the quality, transparency and institutional-grade infrastructure behind RLUSD.  Moody’s assessed everything from the credit quality and liquidity of @Ripple’s reserves to redemption arrangements, custody relationships, regulatory oversight, and operational controls in their rigorous methodology.  As RLUSD continues to grow, this kind of independent validation matters more than ever. Moody’s has helped set the standard for assessing credit quality and risk across traditional finance for decades, and bringing that same level of assessment to stablecoins themselves is a major step forward for the industry. Proud to see RLUSD helping set a new benchmark for institutional trust in stablecoins. ratings.moodys.com/ratings-n…

Big news heading into @RippleSwell: the @USOCC has granted final approval for Ripple National Trust Bank. This gives Ripple a federally supervised platform to support $RLUSD and provide digital asset custody to enterprises. We’ve always said crypto and banks work better together — this is what that looks like. Real innovation, real accountability, federal oversight. The revolution isn't happening outside the system. It's happening from within it.

For too long, regulatory uncertainty has prevented responsible, yet critical innovation from taking root in the United States. It has been a priority of my chairmanship to reverse this trend. Though temporary, the Innovation Exemption is a principled, structured grant of relief designed to resolve genuine legal uncertainty, while providing investor protections and upholding market integrity standards. Through this order and a number of ongoing initiatives, we will ensure that America remains the world’s premier destination to build the next generation of financial infrastructure.
