Standard Chartered has started custody of Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin on the XRP Ledger through its Dubai branch, regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority. A proposed 'collateral mirroring' model with trading platform LMAX would allow institutional clients to trade against their RLUSD holdings without transferring collateral to the trading venue. While custody is live, the trading arrangement still requires testing, legal reviews, and regulatory approval before it can operate. This development enhances institutional infrastructure for RLUSD but does not directly increase demand for XRP, as the stablecoin—not XRP—is the main asset involved.
