A blog post published on the Evernorth website on May 20 by Sagar Shah, chief business officer at Evernorth, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.evernorth.xyz\/blog-post-05-20-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">outlined<\/a> why RLUSD and <span>XRP<\/span> serve different functions on the <span>XRP<\/span> Ledger.<\/p>\n<p>Within that framework, RLUSD was characterized as a regulated dollar-backed <span>stablecoin<\/span> intended for transactions involving stable pricing and fiat-linked settlement. <span>XRP<\/span>, meanwhile, was positioned as the neutral bridge asset connecting trades across tokenized markets without relying on a single issuer or intermediary.<\/p>\n<p>The executive argued that direct trading becomes less efficient as more assets enter a marketplace, especially when trading pairs lack dedicated <span>liquidity<\/span>. Shah explained that <span>XRP<\/span> streamlines those transactions by serving as an intermediary asset on the <span>XRP<\/span> Ledger. Under that structure, trades involving tokenized Treasury bills and euro <span>stablecoins<\/span> can settle automatically through <span>XRP<\/span> in the background, while users only see the asset they send and the asset they receive. Shah wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI often get some version of this question: \u2018If RLUSD does what <span>XRP<\/span> was supposed to do, why do you still need <span>XRP<\/span>?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2> <span>Liquidity Pools<\/span> and Escrow Functions Reinforce <span>XRP<\/span> Use<\/h2>\n<p> <span>Liquidity pools<\/span> and <span>automated market maker<\/span> structures on the <span>XRP<\/span> Ledger were also highlighted as part of <span>XRP<\/span>\u2019s routing role. Shah explained that pools require two separate assets, making <span>XRP<\/span> a recurring intermediary between markets. RLUSD can pair with euro <span>stablecoins<\/span> or tokenized Treasury products, though broader trading activity across the ledger still depends on an additional bridge asset connecting <span>liquidity<\/span> between pools.<\/p>\n<p>Collateralized lending and escrow systems were also presented as core <span>XRP<\/span> Ledger use cases involving <span>XRP<\/span>. Shah described <span>XRP<\/span> as collateral for borrowing arrangements tied to <span>stablecoins<\/span> and tokenized assets, citing its <span>liquidity<\/span> and the absence of issuer intervention during loan periods. He also highlighted <span>XRP<\/span> Ledger\u2019s native escrow functionality, which locks <span>XRP<\/span> until predefined dates or conditions are fulfilled directly on-chain. Shah wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe <span>XRP<\/span> step is invisible to the trader \u2026 But the <span>XRP<\/span> in the middle is what makes the trade possible, instantly, without anybody having to find a specific buyer on the other side.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Evernorth framed RLUSD and <span>XRP<\/span> as complementary infrastructure for expanding on-chain finance. Shah positioned RLUSD as the dollar-denominated asset, while <span>XRP<\/span> was described as supporting routing, <span>liquidity<\/span>, collateral, and settlement across the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.binance.com\/en\/price\/xrp\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">XRP<\/a> Ledger ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>The discussion follows Evernorth\u2019s focus on institutional <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-a-blockchain\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blockchain<\/a> infrastructure and XRP-based treasury operations.
