Ripple’s RLUSD Cleared for Use in Abu Dhabi Global Markets

Published at 2025-11-27 07:15:06

Ripple said RLUSD has been cleared for use in Abu Dhabi Global Markets (ADGM), marking a regulatory win as the company expands across global financial centres. The approval allows RLUSD to be used within Abu Dhabi’s primary financial market, opening doors for wallets, exchanges, and institutional counterparties operating under ADGM rules to integrate the token for payments, settlement and trading.

The ADGM nod is significant for regional liquidity and institutional confidence: regulatory acceptance in a major MENA hub can help RLUSD gain traction for cross-border flows and treasury operations, and may indirectly boost demand for XRP as part of Ripple’s broader rails. Market watchers will be looking for exchange listings, custodial integrations and initial on‑market flows that confirm tangible adoption in the weeks ahead.
