Binance has finalized the integration of Ripple USD (RLUSD) on the XRP Ledger, enabling users to make deposits and withdrawals of the stablecoin directly via the network. The exchange’s move increases RLUSD’s accessibility and exposure to a broader set of crypto participants.
According to the announcement, with the integration now finalized, Binance will allow deposits and withdrawals of RLUSD on the XRP Ledger. This allows Binance users to transact RLUSD directly through XRP Ledger infrastructure.
Ripple USD was launched on Dec. 17, 2024, with a focus on facilitating cross-border payments and providing liquidity within Ripple’s ecosystem. At launch, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said the stablecoin’s vision is to compete in the more than $150 billion stablecoin market.
RLUSD entered a market already dominated by major stablecoins including Tether (USDT) and Circle (USDC). Despite that competitive landscape, Ripple has continued to position RLUSD to compete favorably with established players.
As of January 2026, RLUSD was struggling to break into the top 50-ranked crypto assets by market capitalization. However, trading activity showed momentum: volume rose by 135% following active engagements by traders.
The Binance integration is described as a liquidity boost for RLUSD, as it expands the stablecoin’s reach on a major exchange. It also signals credibility through RLUSD’s association with the world’s largest crypto exchange, which could support increased activity on the XRP Ledger as more users gain easier access to RLUSD.
XRP holders have welcomed the integration as a bullish development, citing increased institutional-grade infrastructure around Ripple products and greater visibility for RLUSD.
