$72 Million Stablecoin Gets DeFi Boost: Ripple Integrates Chainlink

Ripple has integrated Chainlink’s services to enhance the utility of its RLUSD stablecoin within decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. Launched last month on Ethereum and XRP Ledger, RLUSD now boasts a $72 million market cap. This integration, effective immediately on the Ethereum blockchain, allows developers to use RLUSD for trading, lending, and other DeFi activities. Chainlink’s infrastructure, which has supported over $18 trillion in transaction value, provides reliable pricing data crucial for managing risks in DeFi. Ripple aims to increase RLUSD’s adoption in DeFi and improve its efficiency for cross-border payments. Jack McDonald, Ripple’s senior VP of stablecoin, emphasized that this move positions RLUSD to support a wide array of financial activities in decentralized systems.
