Ripple just announced a new partnership in Bahrain, agreeing to help expand the kingdomās Web3 infrastructure with pilot projects, participation in industry events, and more.
This could be a golden opportunity for the firm to expand its RLUSD user base, which is still rather tiny. However, the stablecoinās liquidity is growing quickly and could potentially reach the $1 billion mark soon.
Rippleās Bahrain Deal
Ripple has been making significant progress in expanding its RLUSD stablecoin recently; in the last few months, new partnerships have expanded its market access in Europe, East Asia, and across the African continent.
Today, Ripple is gaining further global exposure thanks to a new partnership in Bahrain:
To be clear, Bahrain isnāt Rippleās only expansion target at the moment; the firm also conducted top-level meetings in Luxembourg today. Still, this Bahrain deal has been finalized, and it offers many advantages.
The firm is partnering with Bahrain Fintech Bay, a financial incubator and ecosystem builder with important government partnerships.
Ripple hopes to expand Bahrainās Web3 ecosystem in a variety of ways, supporting pilot programs and agreeing to take part in future industry conferences.
RLUSD isnāt a centerpiece of this agreement, but it does play a notable role, as Ripple will integrate it with Bahrainās financial institutions. Furthermore, this partnership comes at an interesting moment for the firm and its stablecoin.
Ripple hasnāt just pursued regulatory acceptance for this token; itās been continually building liquidity for several months. RLUSDās market cap is rapidly approaching $1 billion, an impressive milestone:
Despite this impressive liquidity, however, RLUSDās actual user activity is lagging far behind.
On-chain data currently shows that average daily users hover around 500, and it hasnāt hit 700 in the last 12 months. In other words, actual adoption in regions like Bahrain could be very critical to Rippleās long-term success with RLUSD.
With a daily transaction volume of roughly $80 million, Ripple has a lot of work ahead of it if the firm wishes to seize a piece of the lucrative stablecoin market.
Hopefully, this Bahrain expansion can help it achieve these goals.
