Ripple has officially adopted the Chainlink standard to enhance the utility of its RLUSD stablecoin in decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems. This helps Ripple integrate RLUSD with Chainlink Price Feeds on Ethereum.
This collaboration is another major milestone for the newly launched stablecoin. It also aims to enhance RLUSD’s utility and accessibility within the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.
Chainlink’s Price Feeds provide secure and reliable pricing data on the Ethereum network, enabling developers to integrate RLUSD into their DeFi applications seamlessly. This move aligns with Ripple’s commitment to advancing the adoption of stablecoin-based payments and expanding RLUSD’s reach across on-chain markets.
According to Ripple’s official blog post, Jack McDonald, Senior Vice President of Stablecoin at Ripple, highlighted the importance of this integration, stating, “As RLUSD scales across DeFi ecosystems, reliable and transparent pricing is essential to maintaining stability and building trust in its utility within decentralized markets.”
RLUSD and the Growing Stablecoin Market
Stablecoins, with their ability to facilitate instant, low-cost transactions, are transforming the financial landscape. RLUSD backed 1:1 with the US dollar with NYDFS approval, is Ripple’s answer to the increasing demand for secure, compliant digital payment solutions.
RLUSD was issued on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) and Ethereum blockchain and is designed for seamless compatibility with smart contract applications in DeFi. However, the growth of RLUSD in DeFi depends on access to high-quality pricing data.
DeFi applications cannot effectively manage risks or create reliable financial products without accurate and real-time asset prices. By integrating Chainlink Price Feeds, Ripple addresses this need, positioning RLUSD for broader adoption within the DeFi space.

Chainlink’s Role in RLUSD’s Expansion
Chainlink’s infrastructure offers several features that make it an ideal partner for Ripple’s goals. Its decentralized oracle network delivers tamper-proof, volume-weighted pricing data from a wide range of premium aggregators. This ensures RLUSD pricing remains accurate and resilient against market manipulation.
Moreover, Chainlink’s secure node operators and decentralized architecture provide robust protections against downtime and tampering. Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, emphasized, “The adoption of tokenized assets such as stablecoins will continue to accelerate in the coming years, and having access to critical on-chain data will accelerate the process.”
The integration also benefits from Chainlink’s reputation framework, which enables real-time monitoring of the Oracle network. RLUSD is already in the top ten most used stablecoins, and this transparency further solidifies trust in the stablecoin and the broader ecosystem.
By leveraging Chainlink’s battle-tested infrastructure, Ripple is set to accelerate RLUSD’s adoption and reinforce its role as a leader in the digital asset space.
