Ripple launches Mint to expand institutional access to RLUSD

Ripple launches Mint to expand RLUSD access for institutions as the stablecoin’s market cap approaches $1.6 billion.

Ripple, a blockchain-focused fintech company, has launched Ripple Mint, a platform that gives institutions new ways to access, mint, redeem and manage its US dollar-pegged stablecoin, Ripple USD (RLUSD).

The company announced Ripple Mint on Thursday, describing it as a unified platform that lets institutions manage RLUSD through a web interface or direct application programming interface (API) integrations.
