data-start=\"169\" data-end=\"466\">Ripple has appointed the Bank of New York Mellon (BNY Mellon) as the primary custodian for reserves backing its US dollar-pegged stablecoin, RLUSD.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"169\" data-end=\"466\">The partnership, announced Wednesday, aims to strengthen regulatory compliance and institutional credibility for Ripple and its stablecoin product.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"468\" data-end=\"790\">BNY Mellon, the oldest bank in the United States and a major provider of financial services to institutional clients, will facilitate the movement of reserve assets and cash to support RLUSD conversions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"468\" data-end=\"790\">The arrangement marks a significant development in Ripple\u2019s stablecoin strategy, which launched in December 2024.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"1043\">\u201cAs primary custodian, we are thrilled to support the growth and adoption of RLUSD,\u201d said Emily Portney, global head of asset servicing at

signals \u201cStablecoin Summer\u201d<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1106\" data-end=\"1366\">The collaboration between Ripple and BNY Mellon reflects a broader trend of traditional financial institutions entering the stablecoin space.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1106\" data-end=\"1366\">This wave of engagement, dubbed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2025\/07\/09\/bny-mellon-will-have-custody-of-ripples-new-stablecoin.html\">\u201cstablecoin summer\u201d by CNBC<\/a>, is gaining momentum amid shifting regulatory dynamics in the US.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1775\">The Trump administration is rolling back restrictive crypto policies from the Biden era, while the <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/06\/18\/what-is-the-genius-stablecoin-bill-and-how-it-could-redefine-crypto-regulation\/\">Senate recently passed the GENIUS Act<\/a> to set guardrails for US dollar-pegged stablecoins.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1775\">This regulatory clarity is attracting major corporate players. <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/06\/13\/amazon-and-walmart-considering-to-issue-own-stablecoins-report\/\">Amazon and Walmart are said to be exploring stablecoin<\/a> initiatives, while companies such as Uber, Apple, and Airbnb are also reportedly assessing similar possibilities.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1777\" data-end=\"2078\">Stablecoins, which are digital tokens pegged to assets like the US dollar, aim to combine the speed and efficiency of blockchain networks with the price stability of fiat currencies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1777\" data-end=\"2078\">Their growing appeal among institutions underscores their perceived utility in modernizing financial infrastructure.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"2085\" data-end=\"2145\">Ripple Eyes US banking charter, federal reserve access<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2147\" data-end=\"2444\">In addition to securing BNY Mellon as a custodian, Ripple recently applied for a US national banking charter and a Federal Reserve master account.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2147\" data-end=\"2444\">If approved, this would enable Ripple to hold RLUSD reserves directly with the central bank and integrate more deeply into the US payments system.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2446\" data-end=\"2719\">Ripple, founded 13 years ago, is best known for its cross-border payments platform serving banks, payment providers, and other financial institutions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2446\" data-end=\"2719\">While its operations are largely international, the RLUSD launch represents a strategic move to expand its US footprint.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2721\" data-end=\"2990\">BNY Mellon\u2019s involvement in crypto dates back to 2021, when it established a digital assets unit focused on servicing bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2721\" data-end=\"2990\">The bank\u2019s custodial partnership with Ripple is its latest step in supporting the broader digital assets ecosystem.<\/p>\n<div
