DeFi Dominance: Ripple plans to integrate RLUSD into decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, including lending platforms, decentralized exchanges, and derivatives. The recent partnership with Chainlink to bring RLUSD to Ethereum-based DeFi protocols marks a significant step in this direction.

Leveraging Existing Partnerships: Ripple has a strong network of banks and fintechs through RippleNet. This existing infrastructure will be used to drive RLUSD adoption, making it easier for Ripple to introduce the stablecoin to its partners.
