TLDR
- Exodus added native XRP send and management tools inside its self-custodial wallet.
- The update expands Exodus support for the XRP Ledger and future XRPL-issued assets.
- Exodus said Ripple will help expand RLUSD support inside the wallet.
- RLUSD launched in late 2024 and has a market value near $1.5 billion, per CoinGecko.
- Exodus and Ripple said they will keep building XRPL and RLUSD features together.
Exodus has expanded its wallet with native XRP tools and deeper XRP Ledger support. Exodus develops self-custodial software for storing, swapping, and managing digital assets.
The update lets users send and manage XRP directly inside the app. The company also plans broader RLUSD support through a partnership with Ripple.
That move connects Exodus users to a regulated stablecoin built for payments and transfers. Both companies said they will keep expanding XRPL and RLUSD features in Exodus.
Native XRP tools arrive in the Exodus wallet
Exodus announced the rollout in a press release issued on Thursday. It said the update removes extra steps and gives XRP users direct wallet functions. Those functions now sit inside the main Exodus experience for daily use.
The company said XRP remains one of its most used assets in the wallet. It also ranks high by swap volume across Exodus products and services. That user demand helped drive the latest expansion of native XRPL support.

Chief executive JP Richardson said the goal was easier daily use for XRP holders. He said, “Expanding XRPL support means more ways to use XRP without sacrificing self-custody.” He added that the wallet should stay simple for regular users as features grow.
Ripple partnership expands RLUSD support plans
Exodus said Ripple will help expand RLUSD support inside the wallet over time. RLUSD is Ripple’s regulated stablecoin, and it launched in late 2024. CoinGecko data cited in the release placed its market value near $1.5 billion.
Ripple describes RLUSD as an enterprise-grade asset with transparent reserves and financial utility. Exodus said the partnership gives users more options for holding and moving value. It also opens the door for wider stablecoin access on XRPL inside Exodus.
Lauren Berta of Ripple said open financial systems should give users more control. She said, “RLUSD provides more flexibility in how value is stored and transferred.” That message matched the focus on self-custody and direct asset access in the wallet.
Exodus and Ripple plan wider XRPL feature growth
The new XRP tools also set up support for more XRPL-issued assets. Exodus said the rollout creates a base for future additions across the network. That could widen token access for wallet users over time as support expands.
For Exodus, the move follows strong XRP use across swaps, storage, and transfers. For Ripple, the partnership places RLUSD in a wallet with active crypto users. Both companies said they plan to keep building XRPL features within Exodus.
The two firms said they will continue working to improve XRPL and RLUSD access. Their stated aim is simple use, self-custody, and direct support inside one wallet. The rollout now gives XRP a larger role in the Exodus wallet.
