Ripple\u2019s dollar-backed stablecoin RLUSD today secured the status of a \u201cRecognised Crypto Token\u201d from the Dubai Financial Services Authority, clearing it for use inside the Dubai International Financial Centre. The designation, announced only six months after RLUSD\u2019s launch under a New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) trust-company charter, makes RLUSD the first fully-reserved US-dollar stablecoin admitted to the DFSA regime and extends Ripple\u2019s regulated footprint into one of the world\u2019s fastest-growing digital-asset hubs.<\/p>\n

Ripple Expands In UAE With RLUSD Approval<\/h2>\n

The DFSA\u2019s recognised-token list, introduced in late 2022 with bitcoin, ether and litecoin, was expanded two years ago<\/a> to include Toncoin and XRP. RLUSD now joins that small cohort, underscoring the regulator\u2019s policy of adding tokens only after a rigorous due-diligence process that examines reserve composition, governance and consumer-protection measures.<\/p>\n

Issued by Ripple Markets NY-DFS LLC, RLUSD is backed one-for-one<\/a> by short-dated US Treasuries, cash and cash equivalents held in segregated accounts, with monthly attestation reports and the right of same-day fiat redemption. Those safeguards replicate the standards required by New York\u2019s trust-charter regime\u2014still regarded by many compliance officers as the most demanding in the stablecoin sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe DFSA\u2019s approval of RLUSD is proof of our commitment to building a stablecoin that meets the highest standards of trust, transparency and utility,\u201d said Jack McDonald, Ripple\u2019s senior vice-president for stablecoins. He added that the token \u201cis uniquely positioned to drive institutional use of blockchain technology across global markets, starting with cross-border payments.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recognition allows Ripple to plug RLUSD directly into its DFSA-licensed Ripple Payments platform, giving banks and fintechs a dollar-settlement option alongside XRP for on-chain transfers. Two inaugural DIFC clients\u2014Zand Bank, the UAE\u2019s first all-digital bank, and fintech firm Mamo\u2014have already gone live on the service, which offers 24-hour settlement into more than 90 payout corridors.<\/p>\n

The green light also opens RLUSD to other DFSA-regulated virtual-asset firms inside the centre\u2019s 7000-strong financial ecosystem. Reece Merrick, Ripple\u2019s managing director for the Middle East and Africa, described demand as \u201chuge,\u201d citing corporate treasury desks, exchanges and custody providers that require a compliant on-chain dollar. \u201cThe UAE\u2019s digital economy is vibrant and incredibly dynamic, and we\u2019re looking forward to working with our regional partners, customers and regulators to supercharge that growth,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Stablecoin usage in the Emirates has been climbing sharply. Chainalysis estimates that dollar-pegged tokens accounted for more than half of all crypto flows into UAE-based services in 2024, with the value of stablecoin transactions rising 55 percent year-on-year to roughly $9.8 billion. Those figures outpaced both bitcoin and ether volumes and reflect the country\u2019s $400 billion-plus trade footprint and its appetite for faster settlement rails.<\/p>\n

By adding RLUSD to the recognised-token roster, the DFSA strengthens Dubai\u2019s pitch as a jurisdiction where global trade businesses can settle in tokenized dollars without regulatory ambiguity. The move also dovetails with the emirate\u2019s high-profile experiments on the XRP Ledger: last week the Dubai Land Department<\/a> and tokenization firm Ctrl Alt began pilot transfers of property title deeds on the network as part of a planned $16 billion real-estate fractionalisation initiative.<\/p>\n

At press time, XRP traded at $2.22.<\/p>\n
