Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has announced plans to integrate XRP and Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin into the Cardano ecosystem. Speaking on a recent podcast, Hoskinson outlined the potential for XRP yield opportunities through integrations like Flare, which could enhance its utility in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. Additionally, discussions with the RLUSD team are underway to incorporate the stablecoin into Cardano, focusing on a self-service framework. This approach aims to allow RLUSD to adapt to market demand independently of Ripple's direct involvement, potentially simplifying the addition of new blockchains to the RLUSD platform and bolstering its role in the DeFi sector.
