Brad Garlinghouse took it to X earlier today to announce that Ripple had partnered with Securitize, a leading provider of digital asset infrastructure, to launch a smart contract that will also benefit holders of BlackRock\u2019s BUILD and VanEck\u2019s VBILL.<\/p>\n
More precisely, such holders will be able to exchange their shares to Ripple for the company\u2019s stablecoin RLUSD.<\/p>\n
Very excited to share that @BlackRock<\/a>\u2019s $BUIDL<\/a> and @VanEck_US<\/a>\u2019s $VBILL<\/a> tokenized fund holders can redeem shares for RLUSD\/ETH 24\/7 365 through @Securitize<\/a>, and soon to come RLUSD\/XRPL.<\/p>\n Enterprise-grade instant onchain liquidity at your fingertips. That\u2019s real utility.\u2026<\/p>\n \u2014 Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) September 23, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n According to the announcement, this new smart contract will add<\/a> \u201can additional stablecoin off-ramp for BUILD and VBILL tokenized short-term treasury funds.\u201d Jack McDonald, SVP of Stablecoins at Ripple, commented:<\/p>\n \u201cMaking RLUSD available as an exchange option for tokenized funds is a natural next step as we continue to bridge traditional finance and crypto. RLUSD is for institutional use, offering regulatory clarity, stability, and real utility. As adoption grows, partnerships with trusted platforms like Securitize are key to unlocking new liquidity and enterprise-grade use cases.\u201d<\/p>\n BUILD and VBILL operate in a similar manner as they are tokenized short-term treasury products issued on public blockchains. This integration will allow investors to gain a 24\/7 stablecoin off-ramp.<\/p>\n Their holders can swap their shares for RLUSD instantly, while maintaining exposure to on-chain yields and DeFi strategies. The integration is designed to increase liquidity, flexibility, and interoperability for tokenized assets.<\/p>\n BUILD has already launched RLUSD support, while VBILL is expected to follow suit in the following days.<\/p>\n \u201cPartnering with Ripple to integrate RLUSD into our tokenization infrastructure is a major step forward in automating liquidity for tokenized assets. Together, we\u2019re delivering real-time settlement and programmable liquidity across a new class of compliant, on-chain investment products\u2014bringing the full potential of blockchain to institutional finance,\u201d noted Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize.<\/p>\n The post Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse Drops Bombshell Announcement with BlackRock<\/a> appeared first on CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Brad Garlinghouse took it to X earlier today to announce that Ripple had partnered with Securitize, a leading provider of digital asset infrastructure, to launch a smart contract that will also benefit holders of BlackRock\u2019s BUILD and VanEck\u2019s VBILL.
