Ripple unveiled Ripple Mint, an enterprise platform enabling institutions to mint, redeem, and manage its U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin RLUSD. The platform automates stablecoin workflows and integrates RLUSD into existing financial infrastructure across multiple blockchain networks. Ripple announced the platform is available immediately to existing RLUSD customers, targeting exchanges, fintech firms, payment providers, market makers, and asset managers seeking large-scale digital dollar liquidity management.
Ripple Mint Delivers Automated RLUSD Management Features
Ripple Mint combines a web interface with API access for institutional stablecoin operations. Institutions can manage RLUSD manually through a dashboard or automate minting, redemption, and treasury functions via direct system integrations. The platform supports minting and redeeming RLUSD directly, bridging across supported blockchains, real-time transaction monitoring, and integration into treasury, settlement, compliance, and accounting systems.
The platform includes advanced APIs and real-time webhook notifications, providing end-to-end visibility throughout minting and redemption processes. Unified reference IDs enable users to track fiat deposits, mint requests, on-chain settlements, and redemption payouts, simplifying reconciliation and reducing operational complexity.
RLUSD Expands Across Multiple Blockchains with XRPL EVM Sidechain Integration
Ripple is extending RLUSD beyond the XRP Ledger and Ethereum to Base, Optimism, Ink, Unichain, and the XRPL EVM Sidechain. The XRPL EVM Sidechain combines Ethereum Virtual Machine compatibility with the speed, low cost, and efficiency of the XRP Ledger, enabling developers and enterprises to deploy Ethereum-based applications while remaining connected to XRPL's ecosystem.
Ripple stated RLUSD complements rather than replaces XRP. RLUSD serves as a regulated digital dollar for payments, settlements, and treasury management, while XRP remains the network's liquidity and bridge asset, facilitating cross-chain transfers, decentralized swaps, collateralization, and global payment flows. Ripple Mint and recent integrations such as RedotPay's XRPL-powered RLUSD payment card support Ripple's institutional-grade digital finance ecosystem.
