Today, Ripple published a post with a video extract of an interview with its president Monica Long, speaking on the recently launched RLUSD stablecoin. She reminded the crypto community that the stablecoin market is currently valued at $160 billion, approximately, and it is predicted to show growth to as high as roughly $3 trillion within the next four years.
In this market, Long said, there is a constantly growing demand for stablecoins that prioritize “regulatory compliance, increased diversification and drive utility.” All od those, the Ripple president stressed, are offered by the Ripple stablecoin.
