Ripple plans to expand its $RLUSD stablecoin to multiple Ethereum layer 2 networks using Wormhole’s Native Token Transfers (NTT) standard, the company said on Monday.
The expansion will bring $RLUSD to Optimism, Base, Ink Chain, and Unichain, with availability slated for 2026.
The move would make $RLUSD one of the first U.S.-based trust-regulated stablecoins to integrate with these L2 ecosystems, which are designed to facilitate faster and cheaper transactions while settling on Ethereum’s mainnet.
