Exodus Movement has announced an expansion of its support for the XRP Ledger (XRPL). The long-time self-custodial crypto wallet provider announced the update in collaboration with Ripple.Exodus is deploying a deep native integration of the XRPL ecosystem, giving its millions of users direct access to advanced tools and newly added stablecoin support.The rollout equips users with enhanced in-wallet tools to send and manage XRP directly inside Exodus, while also paving the way for upcoming support of the Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin through its partnership with Ripple, per a Thursday press release.Users now gain greater flexibility to store, send, and swap dollar-pegged value on the XRPL— all while retaining full control of their private keys and avoiding reliance on centralized exchanges.“Expanding XRPL support means more ways to use XRP without sacrificing self-custody or the simplicity of the Exodus experience,” Exodus CEO JP Richardson postulated in a statement. “XRP is already a top asset in our wallet, and partnering with Ripple is a natural next step in making it easier to use every day.” RLUSD is a highly-regulated, enterprise-focused U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin designed with transparency and real-world utility in mind. Since going live in late 2024, its market capitalization has soared to around $1.48 billion, according to CoinMarketCap data.Stablecoin Product Lead at Ripple, Lauren Berta, said that open financial systems should empower users with greater control, adding that RLUSD enhances flexibility in how value is stored and moved.Exodus has long offered support for XRP storage and transactions, during which the payments-focused token has organically become one of the platform’s most prominent assets. According to the Exodus team, XRP consistently ranks among its top coins in terms of daily user activity and in-app swap volume. Notably, earli

That gap between corporate utility and token pricing is where the emotional trigger sits. People with market exposure can see oil jumping and Bitcoin sliding.

They can see the dollar catching a bid. The harder question then comes into focus: if the world is becoming more expensive and more fragmented, why is the best-known payments token still struggling to trade like a payment asset

The Ethereum Foundation exposed 100 Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK)‐linked IT workers embedded across roughly 53 crypto projects.

Ethereum Foundation Levels Up Its Security With A Detective Program

The North Korean secret crypto-agents don’t rest, so the Ethereum Foundation decided it was time they put on the detective’s hat to track them before they too fell victims to them, just as Drift Protocol was at the beginning of the month. And so, yesterday afternoon the Foundation announced on an official blog post the starking results yielded by the ETH Rangers Program (and yes, everything related to North Korean hackers inevitably sounds straight out of an RPG or action movie).

The ETH Rangers Program has wrapped up and the results speak for themselves: $5.8M+ recovered, 785+ vulnerabilities reported, 100+ DPRK operatives identified, and so much more.

A decentralized defence for a decentralized network.

According to the blog post, the Ethereum Foundation teamed up with Secureum, The Red Guild, and Security Alliance (SEAL) in late 2024 to roll out said program. The initiative offered stipends to people carrying out public‐goods security work across the Ethereum ecosystem.

The program’s mission consisted in backing independent security initiatives that strengthen Ethereum’s overall robustness, while spotlighting and rewarding contributors with a proven history of delivering high‐impact security work for the broader network.

After six months, the results of the program speak for itself.

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure Mastercard is exploring a path to settle card flows in Ripple USD (RLUSD) through its network in a move that could bring XRP Ledger-linked stablecoin infrastructure closer to one of the world's largest payments systems. In an interview shared April 16 by XRPL Commons' Odelia Torteman, Mastercard's senior vice president for digital assets and blockchain, Christian Rau, said the company is working with Gemini on an RLUSD settlement use case and hopes to bring it live in the first half of the year. Mastercard Signals XRP Ledger Stablecoin Use CaseSpeaking at an XRPL and Global Digital Finance stablecoin roundtable in Paris, Rau framed the initiative as part of Mastercard's broader push to integrate stablecoins into existing payment rails rather than treat them as a parallel system. He said the company continues to approach the sector from a "payments first" perspective, arguing that stablecoins have now entered the mainstream of financial services and can improve how money moves across borders and between institutions. "Over the last 50, 60 years we've been constantly innovating on how payments can be safe, simple, secure," Rau said. "And if you then fast forward to five years back or two years back, you will realize that stablecoins arrived in the financial services mainstream. And we believe that the benefits that they bring in terms of settlement cycles, money moving globally freely, they can definitely add to further driving sustainable innovation in the financial services and payment ecosystem. "Related Reading: Massive XRP Adoption Trend Paints The Most Bullish Picture YetRather than pitching stablecoins as a replacement for the card model, Rau described them as an additional settlement layer inside Mastercard's existing network.

Bitcoin surged above $78,000 in a sharp short squeeze after Iran declared the Strait of Hormuz fully open and Donald Trump claimed Tehran agreed to an unlimited suspension of its nuclear program.

The rally triggered about $762 million in crypto liquidations, mostly from short positions, with bitcoin accounting for roughly $382 million and ether $167 million, as funding rates had been negative for weeks.

Traders are watching the $76,000 to $78,000 zone as a key resistance area whose sustained break could clear a path toward bitcoin’s $94,000 yearly open and $126,000 record high, while other major tokens also logged solid weekly gains.

Not long ago I was told that the Strait of Hormuz would be opened. I had the info before it went public. Didn’t think twice - opened a small long on $BTC. You can see the result on screen + the entry time.

I didn’t doubt the info because it came from the right people.

It wasn’t told to me so I could trade it. Just came up in a conversation about the situation around UAE.
