Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, has officially announced it will list Ripple USD (RLUSD), the US dollar-backed stablecoin from Ripple. Spot trading for RLUSD is scheduled to commence on January 22, 2026, at 08:00 UTC.
The exchange will open three key spot trading pairs: RLUSD/USDT, RLUSD/U, and XRP/RLUSD. To incentivize early liquidity and celebrate the launch, Binance is initiating a "zero-trading-fee promotion" for the RLUSD/USDT and RLUSD/U pairs. Users can already begin depositing RLUSD in preparation for trading.
Ripple issued a statement confirming the development, noting that the listing on Binance "marks a milestone in RLUSD's continued growth." The company emphasized its commitment to building a stablecoin infrastructure that is open and ready for institutional use. The initial listing includes Ethereum support, with XRP Ledger (XRPL) support planned to be added soon.
