Ripple has begun testing its RLUSD stablecoin on Ethereum Layer 2 networks, including Optimism, Base, Ink, and Unichain, using Wormhole’s interoperable NTT infrastructure to maintain native issuance and move liquidity across chains.
RLUSD will be the first US trust-regulated stablecoin on L2 solutions. However, approval from New York regulators is still pending. This step will be key to strengthening the utility of the XRP ecosystem alongside wXRP to enhance cross-chain interoperability.
The expansion allows businesses and users to access payments, swaps, and on-chain services with a reliable, liquid token. The public launch of RLUSD on these networks is scheduled for 2026, once the necessary regulatory approval is secured.
