XRP's role as the primary settlement asset on the XRP Ledger is strengthening as Ripple USD (RLUSD) activity grows significantly. RLUSD trading volume has surged to about $900 million over six months, increasing from under 1% to 12% of network trading by 2026. This growth boosts overall transaction counts and fee generation on the XRP Ledger, with RLUSD trades relying on XRP for settlement.

This trend highlights XRP's expanding importance in facilitating dollar-based trades and institutional payments.
