RLUSD supply surges 30% as XRP tests $1.50 resistance
ambcrypto.com reports that RLUSD supply has grown by over 30% while USDT supply declined by 0.4%, highlighting a shift in stablecoin liquidity. RLUSD now exceeds $950 million on the XRP Ledger, representing more than 90% of stablecoins on that network. This influx of capital coincides with XRP piercing the $1.50 resistance zone and posting a 53% weekly rally. The token recently experienced a 6% pullback, resulting in the liquidation of $1.18 billion in longs on Bitfinex. The data suggests that increased liquidity on XRPL could help absorb selling pressure and support XRP against Ethereum. If this on-chain growth persists, XRP may reclaim $1.50 and resume its relative strength against ETH.
