XRP vs. RLUSD: Ripple CEO Sets the Record Straight on Competition
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse addressed community concerns regarding whether the company's dollar-pegged stablecoin, $RLUSD, threatens $XRP .
Complementary, Not Competitors: Garlinghouse clarified that RLUSD is designed to compete with rival stablecoins like USDT and USDC—notXRP.
* Distinct Roles on XRPL: While XRP remains essential as the native token for transaction fees and ledger reserves,$RLUSD provides fiat-pegged price stability for institutional payment flows.
* Driving On-Chain Volume: The core goal is to capture diverse stablecoin liquidity and bring active institutional use cases directly onto the XRP Ledger.
> “Use case matters, and I want those use cases running on the XRPL.” — Brad Garlinghouse
What are your thoughts—will RLUSD drive broader utility for the XRP Ledger, or do you prefer holding native XRP?
