Coinbase Lists Ripple RLUSD Stablecoin With Support on Three Networks
(3 hours ago) · 1 source · Summarized by CryptoBipto
Coinbase has listed RLUSD, a stablecoin issued by Ripple, and is supporting transfers on three different blockchain networks. The listing expands the availability of Ripple's stablecoin to Coinbase's user base.
WHY IT MATTERS
A stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency designed to hold a steady value, usually equal to one US dollar. Think of it like a digital dollar that can be sent across different blockchain networks. Ripple, a well-known company in the crypto industry, created its own stablecoin called RLUSD. Coinbase is one of the biggest and most widely used crypto exchanges, similar to how a stock exchange lets people trade stocks. When Coinbase lists a new token, it becomes much easier for everyday users to access and use it. Supporting transfers on multiple networks means users can move RLUSD across different blockchain systems, giving them more flexibility in how they use it.
