📰 XRP fell 27% while RLUSD crossed $2.3 billion and nobody blinked
🗓️ Sep 09 2026 19:05 UTC
Ripple’s stablecoin has grown 1,278% this year while XRP shed more than a quarter of its value. The network is busier than ever, but the token capturing that activity has a dollar sign and a peg. The numbers tell two…
➤ Ripple's stablecoin, RLUSD, has experienced explosive growth and widespread institutional adoption for settlement, overshadowing XRP's declining price despite increased network activity.
➤ The XRP Ledger's utility is increasingly driven by RLUSD, leading to a decoupling of network success from XRP's token performance, as institutions prefer the stablecoin's lack of volatility.
➤ Despite XRP ETFs attracting significant inflows, the token's price is pressured by ongoing escrow unlocks and the shift in utility towards RLUSD, suggesting a potential downgrade in XRP's narrative from a payment utility to a speculative asset.
