Evernorth’s Sagar Shah says XRP remains key to XRPL routing alongside RLUSD, May 20

Evernorth argues XRP and RLUSD fill different roles on the XRP Ledger, with XRP used as a neutral bridge asset for routing trades and RLUSD aimed at dollar-denominated transactions. In a May 20 Evernorth blog post, chief business officer Sagar Shah said issuer-linked constraints can make stablecoins less suited for universal routing across markets. He added that XRP’s function also extends to liquidity pools, collateral use, and XRPL escrow-based settlement.
