Coinbase lists Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin across retail, exchange and Prime

Coinbase has added Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin to its retail app, exchange and Prime platforms, supporting the XRP Ledger, Base and Ethereum, as the token's market capitalisation passes $2.6bn.

Why it matters: The listing puts RLUSD on one of the largest US crypto platforms, widening its use in trading, collateral and settlement and sharpening competition among stablecoins.

Key points

  • RLUSD is available on Coinbase's retail app, the Coinbase exchange and Coinbase Prime, with 1:1 conversion from US dollars and supported dollar stablecoins.
  • RLUSD launched in December 2024 and has grown to more than $2.6bn in market capitalisation, backed by cash, short-term US Treasuries and cash equivalents.

Coinbase has added Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin across its retail app, its exchange and Coinbase Prime, giving institutional and individual clients access to the token on infrastructure they already use, Bitcoin.com News reports. Users can convert US dollars and supported dollar-denominated stablecoins into RLUSD at a 1:1 rate.

Brett Tejpaul, co-CEO of Coinbase Institutional, said the access lets clients pick assets that fit their strategy.

The token launched in December 2024 and has passed $2.6bn in market capitalisation, with use across exchanges, payments, institutional markets and DeFi. It is redeemable for US dollars and backed by cash deposits, short-term US Treasuries and other cash equivalents.

For Ripple, the integration moves RLUSD beyond payments and settlement into a wider trading and custody ecosystem. For Coinbase, it fits its push to become an "everything exchange". The article notes that stablecoin competition is increasingly about distribution, liquidity and interoperability as much as market capitalisation.
