- Coinbase Lists Ripple's RLUSD Stablecoin, Expanding Dollar-Backed Offerings — this brief
Coinbase has announced the addition of Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin to its trading platform, expanding its range of dollar-backed cryptocurrencies available to both retail and institutional clients. RLUSD, which was launched in December 2024, is designed to facilitate international payments and settlements, according to Ripple.
The listing of RLUSD comes as Coinbase continues to diversify its stablecoin offerings. The platform already supports other major stablecoins, including Circle's
USDC, PayPal's PYUSD, and TrueUSD. This move is part of Coinbase's strategy to provide a comprehensive suite of digital asset options to its users.
According to data from DeFiLlama, RLUSD currently has a circulating supply of $2.57 billion, which is slightly lower than PayPal's PYUSD at $2.99 billion but significantly lower than USDC's $71.22 billion. The addition of RLUSD to Coinbase's platform could potentially increase its market capitalization as it gains more exposure and liquidity.
The total cryptocurrency market cap stands at $2.76 trillion, with the overall market remaining relatively flat.
Bitcoin has seen a slight increase of 0.06% in the past 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed Index is at 51, indicating a neutral market sentiment. The stablecoin market, in particular, continues to be a significant area of growth and competition within the broader crypto ecosystem.
The listing of RLUSD on Coinbase is likely to have implications for the competitive landscape of the stablecoin market. It provides users with more options for dollar-backed digital assets and could potentially drive further adoption of RLUSD. Investors and traders may want to monitor the performance and adoption of RLUSD in the coming weeks to gauge its impact on the market.
