The launch of Ripple USD (RLUSD), pegged one-to-one with the US dollar, was seen as a major step in Ripple's ecosystem, generating high expectations for this year. It was initially planned to launch on both the XRP Ledger (XRPL) and Ethereum platforms.

However, recent developments suggest that RLUSD might only be launched on Ethereum this year, or alternatively, on XRPL with limited functionality. The XRPL launch could occur without Automated Market Maker (AMM) support and be restricted solely to the DEX orderbook. The main reason for this limitation stems from the "clawback" feature, which prevents the stablecoin from being used within XRPL's AMM.

Various updates are being developed to address this issue. One of them, XLS-73, aims to improve how AMM interacts with frozen assets, while XLS-77 is designed to introduce a stricter freeze function for trustlines, preventing blacklisted accounts from transferring RLUSD.

Since XRPL operates as a decentralized network, it remains unclear when these amendments will take effect, and signs of fatigue are being observed within the community.

Ripple CTO David Schwartz shared his thoughts, explaining that XLS-77 would implement a less stringent freeze than expected. When XLS-77 is applied, instead of assets being moved to frozen accounts, they remain in unfrozen accounts with additional restrictions, affecting payments that would otherwise have gone through.

Despite these technical advancements, the initial RLUSD launch may not fully meet expectations. While a high-quality stablecoin is undoubtedly crucial for Ripple’s future, the first release may lack complete functionality, requiring some patience from users.

Further intensifying the situation, the XRP community has voiced strong objections to the potential limitations of RLUSD on XRPL, especially since it is expected to operate fully on Ethereum. This has not been well-received by many, who harbor deep frustrations with Ethereum and its creator, Vitalik Buterin.
