Ripple received final approval from the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to launch Ripple National Trust Bank, a federally supervised national trust bank. The bank will manage reserves for Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin, serve as collateral trustee, and offer custody of digital assets, adding OCC supervision to Ripple's stablecoin framework.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.
