With amendments like the fixAMMOverflowOffer, the XRP Ledger has evolved in no small way. As showcased, payments dominated the majority of transactions on XRPL – 88% – in January with OfferCreate coming in at 12%. Fast-forward till today, the scale has tilted remarkably. Both payments and OfferCreate now share 50% adoption rates each.
The RLUSD Stablecoin Use Case
In learning from other prominent layer-1 blockchain, a native stablecoin is central to top performance and growth. Based on this, blockchain payments firm Ripple Labs Inc has decided to launch its stablecoin RLUSD on the XRP Ledger.
While it planned a dual launch for the stablecoin on Ethereum, the impact will be more profound for XRPL. The firm is in the later stages of the RLUSD stablecoin testing on both blockchain networks.
As reported earlier by Coingape, the testing of the stablecoin features minting, burning and transfer of the token. These were designed to solidify the functioning of the digital asset to properly compete in the stablecoin industry.
With the RLUSD, the XRP Ledger will have the liquidity it need to power its AMM, DEXs and other smart contracts hosted on the platform.
