Evernorth, the well-known XRP treasury company, has released a new report examining the relationship between the RLUSD stablecoin and the XRP network.

The findings push back against a common concern in the community that RLUSD’s growth could come at XRP’s expense. Instead, the firm argues the stablecoin’s expansion has directly reinforced XRP’s role as the underlying settlement asset.

A Rapidly Growing Share of On-Chain Trading

Evernorth also disclosed that cumulative trading volume across all RLUSD pairs on the XRP Ledger has surpassed $2.5 billion since the stablecoin’s launch. Every transaction involving RLUSD still settles in XRP and pays network fees denominated in XRP.

This design increases demand for XRP as RLUSD grows. Evernorth described this activity as genuine economic throughput for the ledger rather than a substitute for it.

Transaction Counts And Supply Have Multiplied

The report also highlighted a sharp rise in transaction frequency. Monthly transactions tied to RLUSD rose from around 54,000 in December 2024 to a range between 600,000 and 1.1 million more recently, with the stablecoin now driving close to one million transactions per month on its own.

Alongside this, RLUSD’s circulating supply on the XRP Ledger expanded dramatically, moving from roughly $20 million at the close of 2024 to more than $800 million by late June 2026. Evernorth noted that the XRP Ledger now holds about 51% of RLUSD’s total supply, a larger proportion than what currently sits on Ethereum.

Institutional Use Continues To Expand

Beyond trading metrics, the report pointed to broader adoption across the network. As of June 25, 45,527 accounts on the XRP Ledger held RLUSD, spread across 93,898 trust lines. Direct payment volume using RLUSD also grew substantially, rising from about $68 million in December 2024 to more than $5 billion by May 2026.

Evernorth characterized this trend as evidence of increasing institutional-scale reliance on the network, framing RLUSD’s trajectory as complementary to XRP’s function rather than competitive with it.
