Ripple’s RLUSD Stablecoin Integrated with BlackRock and VanEck Funds
Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin is now integrated into tokenized money-market funds from BlackRock and VanEck, allowing direct redemption into on-chain liquidity.
A smart contract on Securitize’s platform enables investors in BlackRock’s BUIDL and VanEck’s VBILL funds to swap shares for RLUSD on demand.
This integration positions RLUSD as a settlement layer for real-world assets (RWA) while expanding its institutional reach.
RLUSD is backed 1:1 with liquid reserves, issued under a New York DFS trust charter, and has surpassed $700 million in circulation since last year.
Ripple aims to use RLUSD for cross-border payments and DeFi pools, anchoring it to institutional RWA platforms.
The Securitize partnership also enables RLUSD deployment on the XRP Ledger, enhancing both regulatory compliance and DeFi usability.
