Crypto commentator challenges Ripple's claims on XRP and RLUSD usage in payments.

Crypto commentator BrutallyHonest criticized Ripple and its CEO Brad Garlinghouse for allegedly misleading the XRP community about the use of RLUSD and XRP in payments. He argued that RLUSD, not XRP, is used for all cross-border dollar-to-dollar and domestic US transactions, questioning why XRP is not used for transfers between dollar balances. This sparked mixed reactions, with some agreeing on the RLUSD claim but accusing BrutallyHonest of dishonesty, while others felt XRP supporters were too defensive of Ripple's leadership. The debate highlights ongoing confusion and division within the XRP community about the roles of XRP and RLUSD.

XRP is trading at Rp22.726 on Pluang, showing a modest 0.56% gain in the past day. The market cap stands at Rp1.436,89 trillion with a 24-hour trading volume of Rp14,46 trillion. As of Nov 01, 2026 21:21 WIB, sell orders slightly exceed buy orders at 53% to 47%.
