The XRP Ledger is finally getting some real stablecoin heat.

Total stablecoin supply on XRPL has surged to $762 million, with Ripple’s own RLUSD absolutely dominating the scene. Industry numbers show RLUSD now controls the high-80% range of dollar liquidity on the ledger, turning it into the clear king of XRPL’s stablecoin game.
Even better, monthly stablecoin transfer volume has exploded to roughly $4.71 billion. That’s not small money — it’s starting to look like actual usage, not just hype.
RLUSD Runs The Show.. But There’s a Twist
While the XRPL numbers look strong, a big chunk of RLUSD supply is actually sitting on Ethereum (ETH), not on the XRP Ledger itself.
This cross-chain strategy makes the overall numbers look bigger, but it also highlights that much of the growth is happening outside of XRPL’s native ecosystem.
Still, hitting nearly three-quarters of a billion in stablecoins is a solid milestone for XRPL. It’s now rubbing shoulders with mid-tier networks that used to leave it in the dust.
Big On Rails, Thin On Ridership
Here’s where things get awkward.
While the stablecoin side is growing fast, XRPL’s tokenized real-world assets (RWA) story tells a different tale. The ledger shows billions in represented value, but the actual number of RWA holders is hovering around just 110. That doesn’t sound like the most inclusive club.
It paints a classic picture: impressive infrastructure with limited everyday participation. The rails are being built, but the trains aren’t fully running yet.
XRPL’s stablecoin supply just hit a healthy $762 million, led heavily by RLUSD, with strong monthly volume showing real activity. However, the gap between shiny infrastructure and actual broad adoption remains visible — especially in the tokenized asset space.
Ripple is clearly making progress on the payments and stablecoin front, but turning that into vibrant on-chain DeFi usage is still the bigger challenge ahead.
The foundation is getting stronger… now we wait to see who actually shows up to use it.
