Ripple has teamed up once more with its trusted ally SBI Group and snagged the green light from Japan’s Financial Services Agency to roll out RLUSD across the country 🖤
The vibe there is all about smart rules and crypto progress as Jack McDonald noted.
RLUSD in Japan 🌙
SBI Holdings tapped its licensed arm SBI VC Trade to bring RLUSD live for everyone.
Back in August they inked that MoU and now this step unlocks one of the sharpest digital markets out there.
Under the JFSA nod RLUSD counts as a fresh electronic payment tool built to hit every local safety rule.
Both big players and everyday folks can grab it straight from the VCTRADE setup.
Jack McDonald added how Japan leads with clear regs and fresh ideas so this opens doors to regulated stablecoins for institutions consumers and businesses alike.
SBI VC Trade CEO Tomohiko Kondo celebrated the long partnership and called the launch a key win for both sides.
We’re proud to announce that Ripple USD ($RLUSD) is now officially available in Japan, following approval from the Japan Financial Services Agency (JFSA): https://t.co/5rJZBrFaIM
Through our partnership with SBI Group and @sbivc_official, $RLUSD will be accessible to both…

RLUSD Keeps Growing 💀
Even after earlier hurdles Ripple dropped RLUSD late in 2024 and it now serves institutions while spreading fast with moves like the Mastercard tie-in.
Deals with various exchanges have boosted its flow and liquidity.
CoinGecko data puts its market cap at $1.6 billion close to Ripple’s own $1.7 billion figure making it one of the top 50 coins overall and the tenth largest stablecoin.
