Ripple, Robinhood expand partnership to bring RLUSD to retail and institutional markets

Ripple also expanded its collaboration with BNY on digital asset custody and partnered with C2FO to bring trade finance settlement onto the XRP Ledger.

Ripple and Robinhood have expanded their partnership to bring the RLUSD stablecoin to Robinhood’s retail and institutional businesses, alongside new integrations spanning treasury management, lending and trading services.
