XRP0.06%
According to Ripple SVP Jack McDonald at Consensus 2026 in Miami, XRP is essential to RLUSD operations on the XRP Ledger. As the ledger's native gas token, XRP powers every RLUSD transaction processed on XRPL. McDonald described XRP as the "grease in the wheel" enabling fast and efficient transaction flow, stating: "Everything that we're doing on the XRP Ledger with RLUSD requires us to use XRP." His remarks clarify that RLUSD and XRP are complementary, with RLUSD delivering price stability while XRP continues powering liquidity, transaction fees, and core network functionality.
