RLUSD is described as a regulated dollar-backed stablecoin designed for transactions that need stable pricing and fiat-linked settlement. XRP is positioned as a neutral bridge asset that connects trades across tokenized markets without depending on a single issuer or intermediary. As more assets enter a marketplace, direct trading can become less efficient when trading pairs lack dedicated liquidity. XRP streamlines these transactions by acting as an intermediary on the XRP Ledger, enabling automated settlement in the background so users only see the assets they send and receive. Liquidity pools and automated market maker structures reinforce XRP’s recurring role because pools require two separate assets, often making XRP the intermediary between markets.
