LATEST: Crossborder payments need liquidity before transactions can settle. Arf is partnering with @Ripple to provide licensed payment firms with shortterm RLUSD funding on the XRP Ledger, reducing the need to prefund destination accounts. Arf’s model lets payment firms borrow RLUSD for settlement and repay once their own funds arrive. The partnership will begin with direct liquidity provision, with integration into XRPL’s native lending features planned for a later phase.
