This integration establishes RLUSD as an additional payment rail on Cross River’s platform, in the same environment as traditional rails, so that businesses can leverage the strengths of both options, according to the release.

“By integrating RLUSD into Cross River’s existing stablecoin infrastructure, we’re expanding on capabilities already in development, enabling FinTechs to move between U.S. dollars and RLUSD, settle cross-border payments and treasury movement 24/7, and access ACH, wires and real-time payment through a single banking platform and API connection,” Adam Goller, head of Fintech banking at Cross River, said in the release.

RLUSD is purpose-built for institutional use and is issued on the XRPL blockchain, which enables transactions to settle in 3 to 5 seconds at a fraction of a cent and move 24/7. XRPL has settled over $1.3 trillion in value to date, according to the release.

Markus Infanger , senior vice president, RippleX at Ripple, said in the release that the integration of RLUSD and XRPL with Cross River’s regulated banking platform marks a step toward stablecoins transforming payments by becoming part of the banking structure businesses already use.
