Arf taps Ripple to bring RLUSD settlement liquidity to XRP Ledger

  • —Arf lends licensed payment firms RLUSD on XRPL for 1–5 day windows
  • —Arf processes about $10 billion in annual settlement volume, with capital turning over 4–4.8 times a month
  • —The company reports a 0% default rate over more than 1,400 days of operations
  • —A second phase will connect to XRPL's native lending features once live
Why it matters: Replacing pre-funded destination accounts with stablecoin credit could cut cross-border settlement costs and broaden demand for RLUSD.
