Bitrue Expands Crypto Services With RLUSD Listing

Bitrue has added RLUSD to its platform, expanding the exchange’s crypto services beyond a basic listing and into a broader stablecoin offering that includes trading, staking, and yield features tied to Ripple’s dollar-backed asset.

Bitrue Adds RLUSD to Its Crypto Offering

In its official announcement, Bitrue said RLUSD/USDT spot trading opened at 9:00 UTC on November 5, 2025 and that withdrawals opened at 9:00 UTC on November 6, 2025. The same notice said RLUSD went live with 7% flexible staking and no lock-up period.

Bitrue reinforced that broader rollout in a separate blog post, saying users can trade, stake, and earn with RLUSD, while VIP tiers can reach up to 8.4% APY. That matters because the exchange is not presenting RLUSD as a spot-only addition; it is packaging the token as part of a fuller on-platform service stack.

What the RLUSD Listing Means for Traders

For traders, the immediate change is access to an RLUSD/USDT market on Bitrue alongside flexible staking. Because Bitrue launched both features together, the listing gives users another venue where stablecoin liquidity and passive yield sit inside the same workflow.

Ripple said RLUSD launched on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum as a USD-denominated stablecoin. Ripple also said each token is 100% backed by U.S. dollar deposits, U.S. government bonds, and cash equivalents, giving Bitrue users a clearer reserve model than the one attached to many exchange-added tokens.

Ripple further said RLUSD is issued under a New York Trust Company Charter and supported by monthly third-party reserve attestations. That regulatory framing helps explain why another exchange listing can matter for traders who are already tracking Ripple-related market setups in XRP Breaks $1.40: Is XRP Finally Turning Bullish? and ecosystem narratives in Ripple Developers React to Solana XRP Post: What to Watch.

“Ripple’s stablecoin is poised to become the gold standard for enterprise-grade stablecoins.”

Why Bitrue's Move Matters in the Current Crypto Market

Bitrue’s move stands out because the confirmed package includes spot trading, 7% flexible staking, and VIP boosts up to 8.4% APY. In a market where many listings stop at custody and order-book access, that combination gives Bitrue a more service-led way to compete for stablecoin users.

The strategic value is also specific to RLUSD itself. Because Ripple says the stablecoin runs on XRPL and Ethereum and is fully backed by dollar-linked reserves, Bitrue is adding an asset built for transfer and capital parking rather than a token whose only appeal is volatility. That makes the listing relevant for readers following how XRP-linked sentiment is interacting with wider crypto positioning, including the macro caution described in Bitcoin Quantum Fears Lift Focus to $87K Return as XRP Double-Bottom Setup Emerges.

The confirmed facts remain narrow: Bitrue launched RLUSD trading, opened withdrawals the next day, and paired the rollout with staking. Even so, those details are enough to show that the exchange is using RLUSD to deepen its product mix rather than simply add another ticker to its market list.
