According to Reuters, Ripple announced that it will make new investments. Accordingly, Ripple announced that it will acquire stablecoin payment platform Rail for $200 million after US President Donald Trump signed the stablecoin law GENIUS in recent weeks. Ripple, which has launched its own stablecoin called RLUSD, has been at the forefront with its large investments in stablecoin infrastructure in recent months. The deal is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, following regulatory approvals. The acquisition expands cross-border payment capabilities by integrating Rail's virtual accounts and automated payment system. Ripple President Monica Long stated that acquiring Rail will help the RLUSD issuer expand its customer base as stablecoin regulations mature in the US and globally. The Rail acquisition provides Ripple with a regulated payments platform in Canada, the US, and key emerging markets at a time when companies and fintechs are seeking compliant stablecoin Rail. *This is not investment advice.
