Having achieved a major victory in its legal battle with the SEC, Ripple (XRP) continues to achieve new victories. At this point, Ripple USD (RLUSD), a stablecoin launched by Ripple, reached a significant milestone by surpassing the $1 billion market capitalization less than a year after its launch. According to the data, Ripple USD, which was officially launched in December 2024, has achieved a remarkable growth of 1,278% in its market capitalization since the beginning of the year. Ripple stated in a post on X on Monday that RLUSD reached a market capitalization of one billion dollars in one year, is backed 1:1 with the US dollar, and is the most reliable and transparent stablecoin for institutions. “With Ripple Prime, GTreasury, and Rail joining this effort, RLUSD and XRP will foster faster, more efficient, and compliant payments around the world.
