How RLUSD and XRP Are Used (EXPLANATION)
$XRP (XRP.CC)$ I am reposting a Reddit user's explanation:
Crypto
I noticed a lot of people asking questions about RLUSD, and how it will affect XRP, how does it work and so on, so I decided to compile the most important information in a very easy way to understand it.
RLUSD (Stablecoin):
It's a digital version of the US Dollar, pegged 1:1 to a real dollar.
You use it like digital cash for transactions, but it stays tied to the Dollar's value.
It's great for sending or receiving money if the sender and receiver both want to deal in Dollars.
XRP (Bridge Currency):
XRP is designed to connect different currencies (like RLUSD, Euros, Yen, etc.) and move value quickly and cheaply across borders.
It's not pegged to any currency, it has its own market value.
You use it when you need to send money between currencies or across systems (e.g., RLUSD in one place, Euros in another).
But wait, why should I use XRP if there will be RLUSD??
If you're staying in one currency (like RLUSD → RLUSD), XRP isn’t needed.
But if you’re moving between different currencies or systems, XRP is the bridge that makes it all work seamlessly and cheaply.
Think of RLUSD as digital cash for Dollars, and XRP as the global courier that connects everyone. They work together in many cases, but they also serve different purposes depending on the transaction.
If it's still confusing, I will give an easy example.
In the real world, there are over 180 currencies (like Dollars, Euros, Yen). Banks need to hold huge amounts of money in every currency to send money around the world. It's expensive and slow.
XRP acts as a bridge currency.
If someone in the U.S. wants to send $1 million to Japan, instead of needing both Dollars and Yen, they convert $1 million into XRP.
The XRP is sent to Japan, and there, it’s turned into Yen.
This is faster and cheaper because banks only need XRP as the bridge, not every currency in the world.
RLUSD is like a digital version of a dollar.
It’s backed 1:1, meaning every RLUSD is supported by a real dollar in a bank.
This makes it safe and trustworthy.
You can use RLUSD in the digital world (on the XRP Ledger or Ethereum) instead of cash.
Think of XRP as the super-fast delivery truck and RLUSD as the digital money it carries safely. Together, they make global money transfers easier, cheaper, and much faster. Instead of 6,000 different currency combinations (Dollars to Yen, Euros to Pesos, etc.), banks just need XRP as a bridge. RLUSD makes the dollar ready for this digital system too, so people can easily use it online.
Now, what will happen once RLUSD launches?
The launch of RLUSD could indirectly strengthen the XRP market, but the magnitude of the impact will depend on how quickly RLUSD gains adoption and integrates into real-world financial systems.
Expect some short-term excitement but focus on long-term utility for sustainable effects on XRP.

Familyman : How is RLUSD different from USDT?
Popping Candles OP Familyman : RLUSD and USDT are both stablecoins, but they differ in a few ways:
Backing
RLUSD is backed 1:1 by US dollar deposits, short-term US government Treasurys, and other cash equivalents. USDT tokens are distributed in exchange for an equivalent amount of fiat money deposited into a bank.
Regulatory compliance
RLUSD will be on the New York Department of Financial Services “Greenlist” when it is approved.
Use cases
RLUSD is intended to be used for settling international payments and tokenizing real world assets. USDT is ideal for trading between different cryptocurrencies and enables easy flow of funds between fiat currencies and crypto.
Launch
RLUSD is currently in beta testing on Ripple's XRP Ledger (XRPL) and the Ethereum mainnet.
I googled the answer.
