Sources report that Ripple’s products increasingly use the stablecoin RLUSD instead of XRP, and the token’s price is largely speculative, leading to a divergence between the token’s performance and the company’s valuation.
RLUSD is a stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar that offers a less volatile bridge asset for cross‑border payments, potentially cannibalizing XRP’s use in the ledger.
According to the sources, the lawsuit concluded in 2025 with a lighter fine and a ruling that XRP was not an unlicensed security when sold to retail investors, leading to relisting on exchanges.
Ripple secured full MiCA licensing in Europe, enabling payments across 30 countries, and may benefit from the upcoming U.S. Digital Asset Market Clarity Act.
Sources suggest that Ripple’s equity may have more long‑term upside due to diversified products, while XRP’s value remains tied to speculation and volatility.
