Ripple's Stablecoin Supply Nears $1 Billion Amid Machine Economy Push

Ripple's stablecoin supply on the XRP Ledger has surged nearly 97% in just 30 days, nearing the $1 billion milestone. DeFiLlama tracked the XRPL stablecoin supply at around $770 million, while RWA.xyz estimated it to be at $901.7 million, with Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin leading the growth.

Ripple is betting big on the machine economy, which the company estimates will reach $182 billion in size. The goal is to make RLUSD a go-to stablecoin for institutions and enterprises looking to automate financial transactions using AI agents.

The XRP Ledger's architecture is well-suited for agentic payments, with features such as fast settlement, predictable fees, escrow, trust lines, and multi-signing. Ripple has released the XRPL AI Starter Kit to help developers build payment flows where AI agents act autonomously.
