Ripple and Privy Bring Wallets and AI-Agent Payments to the Ledger
Ripple is partnering with wallet company Privy to bring wallet tools to the XRP Ledger, known as XRPL.

Privy's official announcement says developers will be able to create and manage wallets through code, sign transactions, and build with XRP, the dollar stablecoin, and other assets.
Users can also export their keys, which keeps ownership and portability in their hands.
Software agents get a role too. Server-side wallets can let an AI agent hold funds and pay for services through x402 payments, which in simple terms lets programs pay online automatically.
Privy says policy controls and gas sponsorship are coming later.
-
Create and manage wallets programmatically
-
Sign transactions on the ledger
-
Build with the native token and other assets
-
Enable x402 payments for agent commerce
The announcement notes the ledger has more than 8 million funded accounts and has moved $1 trillion in value over 14 years.
Privy's tools make it easier for fintechs to bring the network into real products, while Privy's CEO said stablecoins are changing how money moves.
The Token Leads Upbit Trading as Weekly Volume Drops 20.8%
Upbit's weekly trading fell 20.8% to 6.7 trillion won, about $4.9 billion, in the week ended November 8, and XRP was the most traded asset.

Upbit's official data lab confirms the ranking at the time we checked. The token held a 14.40% share of 24-hour trading, ahead of bitcoin at 9.87%, ether at 8.69% and USDT at 8.40%.
Its own trading reached 101.0 billion won, up 78.53% in a day, while the whole exchange stood near 701.5 billion won.
This is the key XRP news today for Korean traders: the token still leads trading even as overall activity cools.
RLUSD Transfers on XRPL Jump to $20.1B
Token Terminal's dashboard tracks Ripple's dollar stablecoin.
| Measure | Reported figure |
| XRPL transfers, January | $2.2B |
| XRPL transfers, October | $20.1B |
| Ethereum transfers, October | $15.4B |
| Stablecoins on XRPL in total | About $976M |
| RLUSD share of those | 91% |
Source: Token Relation
The ledger carries about 57% of the combined transfers, with about 42% of the supply.
The growth is 9.1 times, or roughly +814%, so the "+900%" in one headline is slightly high.
Ripple's official documentation explains that the stablecoin is backed one-to-one by cash and short-term US government assets, with monthly reserve reports from an independent accountant.
Direct customers are limited to institutions that pass identity checks, while retail users can buy it through exchanges and on-ramps listed on Ripple's site.
It runs on eight networks, including XRPL and Ethereum. Transfer totals count all movements, not only payments.
How the Stories Connect and What to Watch
Privy gives developers the tools, the stablecoin gives them money to move, and the native token pays the small fees on the ledger, so the three stories point the same way.
For anyone following XRP news today, watch:
-
Whether Privy's promised policy controls and gas sponsorship arrive
-
Upbit's next weekly figure
-
Stablecoin transfers for November
-
Whether the price holds near $1.10
