Gate News message, April 24 — Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin has expanded its cross-chain reach after Wanchain added bridge support for the asset. The integration enables RLUSD transfers across the XRP Ledger, Ethereum, Cardano, and Wanchain networks, creating multiple interoperability routes for users managing liquidity across chains.
Wanchain’s bridge now allows RLUSD issued on the XRP Ledger to move to Cardano, Ethereum, and Wanchain. Similarly, RLUSD on Ethereum can be bridged to Cardano and Wanchain. The new routes include a direct path between XRP Ledger-based RLUSD and Ethereum, adding interoperability between the two native RLUSD issuance environments. This reduces reliance on centralized exchanges for cross-chain transfers and conversion steps before moving assets into decentralized finance applications.
Ripple is building a broader multichain distribution model for RLUSD. The company previously signaled plans to expand the stablecoin to Ethereum layer-2 networks, including Base, Optimism, Unichain, and Ink, with testing conducted through Wormhole partnerships. In early April, Coinone listed RLUSD, giving South Korean users direct access in KRW and expanding the stablecoin’s regulated entry points in major Asian markets. Bitrue now allows RLUSD to be used as collateral for futures trading, broadening its role in trading workflows. Mastercard is also exploring stablecoin settlement options that could include RLUSD as part of broader blockchain-linked payment system discussions.
RLUSD is currently the eighth-largest stablecoin by market capitalization at approximately $1.5 billion. Most supply resides on Ethereum, while about 382 million tokens circulate on the XRP Ledger. With Wanchain’s bridge now connecting RLUSD across multiple major blockchain ecosystems, Ripple’s stablecoin is entering a broader cross-chain phase.
