Onchain stablecoin volume is expected to reach 33 trillion USD by 2026. This is the main message from a Ripple brochure at XRP Tokyo 2026.

The major XRPL conference takes place on April 7 in Japan. The message to fintech companies is clear: stablecoins are no longer optional.

The stablecoin argument to fintech companies

The brochure discusses Ripple's offering. It states: “When onchain volume is expected to exceed 33 trillion USD this year, stablecoins are now the new standard for global liquidity. Modern fintech companies no longer ask if they should use stablecoins. Instead, they ask how quickly they can integrate stablecoins to stay ahead.”

The company also calls itself “the trusted partner to unite traditional and digital finance.” The company has more than 75 licenses globally. Therefore, they offer what they themselves call a “robust and regulated solution for stablecoin usage.”

Did you know? The figure of 33 trillion USD is larger than the GDP of both the USA and China combined!

Japan has long been one of the most crypto-friendly markets in the world. The country introduced clear regulations early on and remains a leading nation in adopting new technology. For Ripple, Japan is a very important region.

SBI Holdings is one of Japan's largest financial groups and has been collaborating with Ripple since 2016. Together, they launched SBI Ripple Asia to spread blockchain technology in the region. The partnership gives Ripple direct access to Japanese banks and financial companies.

Japanese authorities also have a positive attitude towards digital assets. This creates a good climate for RLUSD and Ripple's other products.

Therefore, Japan acts as a test market for institutional crypto services and provides important knowledge on how to implement blockchain solutions in the traditional financial system on a large scale.

XRP Tokyo 2026

XRPL Japan organizes XRP Tokyo 2026 and Ripple is the main sponsor. The conference focuses on XRP's increasing role in institutional use, RWA tokenization, and DeFi.

At the same time, Ripple's presence at the event shows that they continue to focus on Asia. With over 75 licenses worldwide and a clear plan for RLUSD, Ripple strengthens its collaborations with fintech companies in the region.
