Expanding into Africa

In the meantime, Ripple recently made an announcement about its stablecoin expanding into Africa. The product will be embedded into existing financial rails with the help of such partners as Chipper Cash and Yellow Card

The RLUSD stablecoin will help to ensure affordability and higher speed
