Ripple Pushes RLUSD Into Institutions With Mint and Notabene

Ripple is making a strong play for the institutional stablecoin market. The company launched Ripple Mint, a new platform designed to let institutions mint, redeem, and manage RLUSD from a single dashboard. Alongside this release, Ripple made a strategic investment in compliance firm Notabene, adding strict identity checks and authorization tools to its stablecoin network.

Ripple Mint is built to replace older setups by offering a web console for manual checks and automated application programming interfaces for advanced workflows. The system tracks transactions in real time and uses reference IDs to simplify accounting for exchanges. Standard Custody and Trust Company issues the stablecoin under New York state financial rules, while SBI Group handles the business side in Japan.

The investment in Notabene addresses a major regulatory headache by verifying identities before transactions settle. This partnership helps institutions clear sanctions rules easily. Meanwhile, XRP traded near $1.11 as traders watched the news, holding a top ten spot by market capitalization.

Traders are paying attention because RLUSD now runs across multiple networks beyond the native ledger. Every transaction on the primary ledger burns a small amount of XRP for fees, meaning higher stablecoin activity directly shrinks the token supply. Watch for adoption metrics in the coming months to see if these compliance updates successfully pull in new institutional volume.
