Ripple chases AI’s machine economy as XRPL stablecoins near $1 billion
The company is tying RLUSD’s rapid growth to a broader push for autonomous payments, even as real-world demand remains early.

Good to see you this Friday.
Crypto’s next phase is being shaped less by slogans than by who controls distribution, compliance, and user flow. SBI Shinsei’s XRP-linked vouchers point to a banking play built around deposits and retention, while the CLARITY Act’s Senate path may hinge on whether lawmakers target bad actors or the software behind them.
That backdrop matters because the industry is expanding into traditional finance and real-world infrastructure at the same time. Crypto exchanges are pushing deeper into stock trading, Ripple is tying RLUSD growth to machine payments as XRPL stablecoins approach $1 billion, and Raydium’s legacy-contract exploit is a reminder that adoption without maintenance can turn old code into fresh risk.
The global crypto market cap is $2.18 trillion, with a 24-hour volume of $80.73 billion. The price of Bitcoin is $63,865.43, and BTC market dominance is 58.5%. The price of Ethereum is $1,670.16, and ETH market dominance is 9.2%. The best-performing sector is DeFAI, which gained 11%. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index is currently Extreme Fear (12).
