Ripple’s RLUSD Added by Major Crypto Exchange Gemini

Ripple’s new product – the recently launched stablecoin RLUSD – has scored a new listing. It has been added by the major US-based cryptocurrency exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins, Tyler and Cameron, in October 2014 – Gemini. RLUSD now supported by Gemini This news was announced by Ripple’s senior executive, managing director for Middle East & Africa, Reece Merrick, on his social media account. Ripple USD (RLUSD) was launched on the mainnet in early December 2024. The new stablecoin is being minted on two blockchains – XRP Ledger and Ethereum. The latter has so far been used more frequently for releasing RLUSD. Soon after the launch, several major exchanges, including Bullish and Bitstamp, listed RLUSD. In the middle of March, LMAX Digital also added support for it. Now, the turn has come for Gemini to add support for RLUSD.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse commented on that move, stating that Ripple has partnered with the aforementioned organizations “to benefit thousands of classrooms across the US.” This took place during Teacher Appreciation Week, and Garlinghouse hopes that this move of Ripple will inspire other large companies to follow suit. This donation will also help to fund “thousands of classroom projects and teacher requests,” Ripple’s blog post says. CEO of Teach For America, Aneesh Sohoni, reacted by saying that this funding “will expand our Ignite Tutoring Fellows program, drive innovation in our Reinvention Lab, and provide crucial financial assistance to thousands of new corps members during their teacher preparation.” You Might Also Like Zero RLUSD minted since April 25 The last time Ripple Treasury minted a new batch of RLUSD stablecoins was last month, on April 25.
