The gap between the usage of XRP, the native token of the XRP Ledger (XRPL), and Ripple‘s USD stablecoin (RLUSD) in artificial intelligence-powered wallets has widened sharply, reaching a 105% discrepancy in transactional volume.
Autonomous algorithms running on XRPL have increasingly moved toward fiat-denominated settlements. Data from the XRPL AI Hub dashboard shows this trend is sustained, with AI-driven bots steadily raising their turnover in RLUSD and largely bypassing XRP due to its recent price levels.
Over the past seven days, AI-driven scripts processed 554,007 transactions but spent only 209 XRP. In contrast, the transaction volume in RLUSD—the dollar-pegged stablecoin developed by Ripple—reached 602.27 units in the same period. At XRP’s current price of $1.4027, this activity represents $293.16 transacted in XRP, compared to $602.27 transferred in RLUSD.
This demonstrates a clear shift, as the RLUSD share of AI wallet transaction volume is now exactly 105% higher than that of XRP. The difference underscores persistent preferences by machine agents for stable, fiat-linked assets over volatile native tokens.

AI wallet operators have linked this ongoing shift to XRP’s price movements. The token experienced a major rally in late August, rising above $1.70, before settling within the $1.38 to $1.50 range. For software programs executing frequent, ultra-small payments—a common use for such wallets—the higher price has proven restrictive, especially when program limits are set in dollar terms.
For autonomous software handling millions of micropayments, the current exchange rate means program dollar limits are depleted instantly, which has driven bots to focus fully on RLUSD for operational efficiency.
With the price of XRP effectively raising the cost per transaction, bots are finding it more economical to transact in the RLUSD stablecoin. This strategy helps them protect operating budgets from market fluctuations and ensures predictable budgeting for ongoing operations.

Despite hundreds of dollars in turnover, the growing imbalance between the two assets highlights a new dynamic in settlement practices on XRPL.
The preference for RLUSD among AI agents suggests a move toward immunity from cryptocurrency volatility. As a result, the XRP Ledger is increasingly serving as a base for digital dollar settlements, particularly in periods marked by rising market swings.
AI-driven settlement systems operating on XRPL appear to have established a persistent resistance to volatility, channeling transaction flows into Ripple’s stablecoin whenever XRP’s price grows unsettled.
Ripple, founded in 2012, is a fintech company focused on global payments and digital asset solutions. Its stablecoin RLUSD is designed to provide a reliable, dollar-pegged value on the XRP Ledger, which is an open-source blockchain known for fast settlements and low fees.
