Crypto Briefing
Binance will list Ripple USD (RLUSD) and XRP pairs, starting trading on January 22 with fee waivers for promotional pairs.

Summary

Binance announced it will list Ripple USD (RLUSD), a US dollar-backed stablecoin issued by a Ripple Labs subsidiary, with trading commencing on January 22. The exchange will launch three spot pairs: RLUSD/USDT, RLUSD/U, and XRP/RLUSD, allowing deposits ahead of trading. To promote adoption, Binance will waive trading fees on the RLUSD/USDT and RLUSD/U pairs initially. RLUSD, which has surpassed $1.4 billion in market capitalization, is currently supported on Ethereum, with XRP Ledger compatibility planned. Ripple views this listing as a significant milestone for RLUSD's growth and its enterprise stablecoin infrastructure, noting that RLUSD is issued under a New York DFS charter.
