šŸ“° Ridiculous—Binance is giving RLUSD users $800,000 worth of XRP in weekly rewards. Why is Ripple ā€œcryingā€?

Binance announced that starting September 25, it will send an XRP weekly report to RLUSD holders. The total prize pool is $800,000. Users only need to hold RLUSD during the promotion period, and they will receive XRP every week in their Binance spot account. The event runs until October 23. This news is a major positive for both RLUSD and XRP, but for Binance… well, we’ll get to that.

Why is this news important?
In essence, Binance’s move is about finding incremental users for RLUSD. RLUSD is Binance’s own stablecoin, but market recognition and user numbers have always lagged behind USDT. With $800,000 in promotional funding, Binance is essentially buying traffic for RLUSD with real money—and it’s delivering XRP as the direct reward. For Ripple, it’s also basically free advertising. More importantly, this shows Binance is no longer content to play the ā€œfollowerā€ role in the stablecoin space; it’s starting to take the initiative.

Impact on the market
For RLUSD, this is definitely a shot in the arm—its usage could surge in the short term. As for XRP? On the surface, it’s bullish, but $800,000 per week means about $40,000 worth of XRP is being distributed every week. In the long run, the price support effect may be limited. The bigger issue is that it will drive more people to pay attention to RLUSD and the Binance ecosystem, potentially siphoning some USDT users. That would be a potential shock to USDT and the entire stablecoin market.

šŸ’” I think this is positive for RLUSD and the Binance ecosystem in the short term, but theåŠ›åŗ¦ of $800,000 per week may not last longer than a month. If, after the promotion ends, RLUSD usage can’t stay at a high level, this bullish catalyst will be quickly ā€œpriced inā€ and fade. If the XRP price breaks above $1.497, then Binance’s move would truly be a success.
