This stablecoin has been in private beta testing on the Ethereum and XRP Ledger (XRPL) networks since August 9, 2024. Ripple has already minted millions of RLUSD tokens, but the company has yet to announce an official mainnet launch date. Whether Ripple will disclose this information during the conference remains uncertain.
