The XRP Ledger has turned a corner after indicating a high level of institutional interest in the platform. This is followed by increased activity revolving around the tokenisation of assets on the XRPL.
Crypto investor Paul Barron posted on X that the XRPL has turned the corner after hitting the $1 billion milestone in on-chain tokenised assets, followed by the surged use of the ledger to host prominent institutional projects.
Barron highlighted some of the reasons influencing this level of growth. He started by highlighting that the growth is because of the latest inclusion of RLUSD on Binance. Last week, the exchange publicised that it now permits the trading of the stablecoin using XRP or USDT.
They also publicised that they will soon include the XRP Ledger in their list of supported ledgers. It is noteworthy that the holdings of stablecoins on the ledger had surged by $100 million in January to $407 million.
At the same time, in 2025, Ondo Finance added tokenised U.S. treasuries to the XRPL. The product had some difficulties when the SEC examined the finance team regarding the legality of the process.
Although the matter concluded there, since then the team has widened operations. The XRPL now has over $145 million in tokenised U.S. Treasury debt, showing a 2,876% increase from 2025.
Being At the Front Line
Adding more to this, Ripple has always mentioned that it is at the front line of the strategy of tokenisation and stablecoins. The other initiatives are now associated with the XRP Ledger; the firm collaborated with Securitise to take the stablecoin to the BlackRock and VanEck tokenised funds market.
It is noteworthy that the system has recently witnessed prominent upgrades. For example, after the firm included RLUSD in the BlackRock BUIDL, the ledger’s programmability was boosted. The developers have also mentioned that they had made prominent developments on the smart contract to boost its functionality.
