Replies to post #43588 on Ripple (XRPUSD)
Circle's USDC stablecoin (USDC) launched on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) on Thursday, bringing the overcollateralized dollar-pegged token to users of the layer-1 blockchain network.
According to an announcement from Ripple, the launch of USDC on the platform will enable investors to use XRP as a bridge currency to transfer their stablecoins between decentralized exchanges (DEXs) through an auto-bridging feature. Markus Infanger, the senior vice president of RippleX added:
“Stablecoins are key entry points connecting traditional financial markets with the crypto space — essential for use cases focused on utility rather than speculation."
Support for USDC on the XRPL comes amid a concerted push to establish comprehensive stablecoin regulations in the United States, as the sector swells to over $237 billion in market capitalization with geo-strategic and macroeconomic implications.
