Ripple's RLUSD Stablecoin Earns Top Rating from Bluechip Agency, Ripple CEO Warns of XRP Scam on YouTube.

Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin has been ranked the #1 most trusted stablecoin by Bluechip, a major stablecoin rating agency. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse tweeted about the achievement and warned the XRP community to be cautious of scammers impersonating Ripple's official account on YouTube. Garlinghouse emphasized the importance of verifying information and urged the community to report any suspicious activity.

Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin has achieved a significant milestone, earning the top rating from Bluechip, a leading stablecoin rating agency. The rating, which signifies "very low market risk," underscores the stability and reliability of RLUSD [1].

Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple Labs, celebrated the achievement on Twitter, stating that the rating is a testament to the public's trust in the new stablecoin. Bluechip's assessment includes a stability score of 0.91, a management score of 0.84, and a governance score of 0.86, all within the "very low risk" category [1].

The top rating is attributed to Ripple's robust cross-border payment ecosystem and strategic partnerships. The company has collaborated with traditional financial institutions and recently partnered with OpenPayd for direct minting and burning of RLUSD. Additionally, Ripple and The Bank of New York Mellon (BNY Mellon) have formed a partnership to facilitate the secure custody of RLUSD's dollar reserves [1].

Regulatory compliance has also played a pivotal role in RLUSD's high rating. The stablecoin is regulated under a New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) Trust Company Charter and benefits from the passage of the GENIUS Act, which aims to maintain the U.S. dollar's global reserve currency status through stablecoins [1].

Despite the positive news, Garlinghouse has warned the XRP community about a recent YouTube scam targeting Ripple's official account. Scammers are promoting a fake 100 million XRP reward event, using Ripple's branding to deceive users. The CEO urged caution and emphasized the importance of verifying information and reporting suspicious activity [2].

The rising adoption of RLUSD has a direct correlation with the bullish outlook for XRP, the native coin for the XRPL network. High demand for RLUSD helps in reducing the circulating supply of XRP through on-chain burning, potentially leading to a parabolic rally [1].
