XRP is soaring after its creator, Ripple, announced that its planned and unrelated RLUSD stablecoin has finally received regulatory approval and is preparing to launch “soon.” XRP is up 11% in the last 24 hours,

Ripple Labs mints 13.9 million RLUSD tokens across XRP Ledger and Ethereum Network during final testing phase, while XRP price reaches $2.35 amid growing anticipation for the regulated stablecoin's launch.

In a post on the social media platform X, Ripple chief executive Brad Garlinghouse says that Ripple USD (RLUSD) – the firm’s new dollar-pegged crypto asset – has been approved by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS).

The XRP price jumped 6.8% amid news that its stablecoin is approved, but traders rush to buy this ICO before it's too late.
