Gemini, the cryptocurrency exchange, has officially listed Ripple’s stablecoin, RLUSD, for trading, deposits, and withdrawals. This listing marks the 15th exchange to support the dollar-backed token, signaling growing institutional adoption and the continued expansion of Ripple’s digital asset ecosystem.
The announcement was made following a cryptic social media post earlier in the day, which piqued interest within the XRP community. The post featured a stylized sentence with specific capitalization that seemed to reference RLUSD, leading many to believe that Gemini was teasing the stablecoin’s upcoming listing. While the exchange did not confirm the message’s intentionality, the listing of RLUSD on Gemini officially increases its reach within the cryptocurrency space.
With RLUSD now available on Gemini, Ripple’s stablecoin joins a growing list of exchanges offering it, including Uphold, Moonpay, Bitstamp, Revolut, and others. Ripple’s continued push for RLUSD’s availability across various platforms aims to enhance its utility for a wide range of users, from retail traders to institutional clients, with applications in cross-border payments, stablecoin custody, and crypto-to-fiat conversions.
In addition to its integration into exchanges, Ripple has made headlines for its charitable initiatives. On May 5, 2025, the company announced a $25 million donation in RLUSD to support U.S. public education. This donation will be distributed through DonorsChoose and Teach For America, supporting K–12 classrooms and teacher training in underserved communities. The donation will fund school supplies, digital tools, and classroom technology, further demonstrating RLUSD’s utility beyond the trading environment.
Ripple has also integrated RLUSD into Ripple Payments, its enterprise payment platform, to enhance cross-border treasury operations for financial institutions. This integration aims to speed up and streamline global payment processing, aligning with the growing push for stablecoin regulations. Furthermore, Ripple’s recent $1.25 billion acquisition of Hidden Road, a prime brokerage firm, will embed RLUSD as collateral in Hidden Road’s trading and settlement services for institutional clients.
Through these efforts, Ripple continues to expand RLUSD’s role in both the retail and institutional sectors, positioning the stablecoin as a key player in the evolving digital asset ecosystem.
