Ripple Taps BNY Mellon to Custody Stablecoin Reserves as RLUSD Surpasses $500M

Ripple just pulled off a power move—teaming up with banking giant BNY Mellon to safeguard reserves for its RLUSD stablecoin. And guess what? The token just blasted past $500 million in circulation.

Why this matters: Institutional custody isn’t just about security—it’s a credibility flex. Ripple’s playing the long game, wrapping its DeFi ambitions in Wall Street’s favorite security blanket.

The cynical take? Nothing says 'trust us' like outsourcing trust to a 238-year-old bank. Classic crypto—disrupt the system, then rent its vaults.

What’s next? Watch how regulators react. A bank-backed stablecoin walks a tightrope between innovation and 'just another bank product.'
