- Ripple Mint enables institutions to mint, redeem, bridge, and monitor RLUSD through a web interface or API.
- Ripple expanded RLUSD to multiple networks, including Base, Optimism, Unichain, Ink, and the XRPL EVM Sidechain.
- Ripple said Ripple Mint streamlines institutional stablecoin operations with automation, multichain support, and regulated RLUSD issuance.
Ripple has introduced Ripple Mint, a new platform that lets institutional customers mint, redeem, bridge, and manage RLUSD through a web interface or API. According to Ripple, the launch expands institutional access to its stablecoin with automation, monitoring, and multichain capabilities as RLUSD reaches about $1.5 billion in market capitalization, despite monthly transfer volume declining from roughly $14.6 billion to $11 billion.
Institutions Gain Automated RLUSD Tools
According to Ripple, Ripple Mint replaces manual operational processes with tools designed for institutions managing digital assets at scale. Customers can now choose between a web-based interface and direct API integration, depending on their operational needs.
The platform allows institutions to mint and redeem RLUSD directly, bridge tokens across supported blockchains, and monitor transactions from initiation through settlement. Additionally, new APIs and webhook notifications provide real-time updates throughout each stage of the transaction lifecycle.
Ripple said customers can also retrieve account balances programmatically and monitor redemption requests involving both fiat settlements and blockchain transfers. Furthermore, consistent reference IDs connect every transaction step, making reconciliation and operational tracking easier.
Ripple added that existing RLUSD customers can continue using the service without disruption while gaining access to the expanded workflow options.
Ripple Expands RLUSD Across More Networks
Alongside Ripple Mint, the company continues expanding RLUSD beyond its original issuance on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum. According to Ripple, the stablecoin now extends to the XRPL EVM Sidechain, Base, Optimism, Ink, and Unichain.
Ripple said the XRPL EVM Sidechain combines Ethereum Virtual Machine compatibility with close integration to the XRP Ledger ecosystem. As a result, institutions can access RLUSD across additional exchanges, decentralized finance protocols, payment applications, and blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
The company also stated that XRP and RLUSD will work together across supported networks for liquidity, settlement, collateral, swaps, and payments.
RLUSD Targets Institutional Stablecoin Operations
According to Ripple, Ripple Mint supports operational control through automation, multichain access, and regulated issuance. RLUSD is issued by Standard Custody & Trust Company LLC, a New York Department of Financial Services-chartered trust company.
Ripple said the platform will continue evolving into a broader institutional access system for stablecoin operations and liquidity management. Meanwhile, Ripple Mint is already available to existing RLUSD customers.
