Copper has integrated Ripple's U.S. dollar stablecoin, RLUSD, into its Stablecoin Rewards Program, enabling institutional clients to earn yield while holding RLUSD in Copper's secure custody environment. This move simplifies access to stablecoin yields without the need to manage decentralized finance protocols directly. RLUSD, backed by U.S. dollar deposits and government bond reserves, is issued on both the XRP Ledger and Ethereum, aligning with Copper's focus on regulated digital dollar assets. The integration supports RLUSD's growing market presence, now valued above $1.75 billion, and offers institutions a trusted platform for custody, settlement, and collateral management, potentially expanding RLUSD's adoption beyond retail users.
