Stablecoins have emerged as one of crypto’s clearest and most prominent use cases, with their total market cap exceeding $320 billion at the time of this writing. That’s more than 13% of the entire industry’s capitalization.
Attempting to take full advantage of the narrative, Ripple has been pushing its RLUSD stablecoin for a while, and today, they dropped another announcement.
According to the company’s X account, RLUSD is now live on one of the largest regulated exchanges in South Korea – Coinone.
Korean traders are now able to access the asset directly in KRW.
🇰🇷 $RLUSD is now live on @CoinoneOfficial — one of South Korea’s largest regulated exchanges.
Korean traders can now access Ripple’s fully-reserved, enterprise-grade stablecoin directly in KRW.
Global reach. Local access. #RLUSD #Ripple

Coinone is amongst the leading crypto exchanges in the country, boasting a trading volume of around $300 million in the past 24 hours.
This is the last in a series of moves aimed at positioning RLUSD as a preferred crypto on-ramp internationally. As _CryptoPotato _reported earlier in March, Ripple is testing whether RLUSD can replace manual payment processes in Singapore, using the city-state’s sandbox environment called BLOOM. The latter is under the direct management of the Monethary Authority of Singapoe (the country’s de-facto central bank).
