According to a single unconfirmed report, an XRP-backed lending market on Morpho has generated $7.2 million in RLUSD loans, with three wallet addresses reportedly accounting for 93% of that total. The figures have not been independently verified, as the primary source was inaccessible at the time of writing.
Key Points
- A single report, cited as unverified, puts total RLUSD loans in the market at $7.2 million.
- Three addresses reportedly hold 93% of outstanding loan exposure in the market.
- The market uses XRP as collateral and RLUSD as the borrowable asset on the Morpho protocol.
Three Addresses Dominate RLUSD Borrowing in the XRP-Backed Morpho Market
A report from CryptoSlate claims three addresses account for 93% of $7.2 million in RLUSD loans within an XRP-collateralized Morpho market. The report was inaccessible during research, and the address-level breakdown and total loan figure remain unconfirmed by independent sources.

Reported borrower concentration
93%
of the reported $7.2 million in RLUSD loans was attributed to three addresses. Unverified independently.
If accurate, the three-address cohort controls roughly $6.7 million of the $7.2 million total. The remaining 7%, approximately $500,000, is distributed across all other borrowers in the market. For related coverage, see Cyber Revolution Summit Vietnam 2026.
A 93% share held by three addresses indicates the market's loan activity is almost entirely dependent on a small number of participants. If any of those positions are reduced, liquidated, or closed, total outstanding loans in the market would contract sharply.

The market structure pairs XRP as collateral against RLUSD, Ripple's USD stablecoin backed 1:1 by cash, U.S. Treasuries, and government money market funds, with monthly reserve verification by an independent accounting firm. Borrowers post XRP to draw RLUSD loans, meaning collateral value moves with XRP's spot price.
XRP was trading at $1.4946 as of October 1, 2026 at 21:18 UTC, up 0.21% over 24 hours, with a market cap near $94.3 billion and 24-hour volume of approximately $2.8 billion.

The broader Fear & Greed Index sat at 74, classified as Greed, at the time of writing. Morpho, the underlying protocol, reported $16 billion or more in deposits across its credit markets and more than 30 completed audits.
What to Watch in RLUSD Loan Concentration
The primary variable to track is whether the three addresses' reported share of outstanding loans grows, holds, or shrinks as the market matures. A sustained concentration near 93% signals limited organic participation beyond the initial large borrowers. Broader adoption would require that share to fall.
Total RLUSD borrowing is the second indicator. The current unverified baseline of $7.2 million is a small absolute figure for a lending market on a protocol the size of Morpho. The Ethereum validator exit queue and related DeFi liquidity shifts could affect cross-protocol capital availability, including demand for collateral-backed stablecoins like RLUSD.
Collateral conditions are the third factor. Any sustained move in XRP's price affects the loan-to-value ratios of all three concentrated positions simultaneously. With most market exposure concentrated in a small cluster of addresses, a sharp XRP drawdown could trigger correlated collateral stress across the majority of the market's outstanding loans. Broader outflows from crypto risk assets would amplify that pressure.
