Ripple公司的首席技术官David Schwartz在该公司即将推出与美国美元挂钩的稳定币RLUSD之际,提醒投资者注意其潜在的价格波动。
在12月15日于X平台上发布的一条帖子中,Schwartz回应了关于RLUSD市场首秀的担忧,他承认初期可能会出现供应短缺,导致RLUSD的价格高于其与美元1:1的预定平价。
目前尚未公布RLUSD何时投放市场的具体日期。Ripple公司未立即回应置评请求。
今年8月,Ripple宣布已开始在其XRP账本(XRPL)和以太坊主网上测试其新的稳定币。Ripple计划利用RLUSD为全球用户提供跨境支付解决方案。

Ripple Starts Testing Its New Stablecoin on Ethereum and XRP Ledger
Fintech firm Ripple today announced that it had started testing its new stablecoin on its own blockchain and Ethereum. The San Francisco-based company said Friday that Ripple USD (RLUSD) would help meet worldwide demand for stablecoins and be used for cross-border payments. But its testing is only the first step. “RLUSD has not yet received regulatory approval and therefore is not available for purchase or trading—please be cautious of scammers who claim they have or can distribute Ripple USD,”...
Schwartz指出,一些预售竞标中RLUSD的价格高达1,244美元,他认为这是买家渴望获得购买首批稳定币“荣誉”所导致的。
“实际上,有人愿意为一小部分RLUSD支付1,200美元/RLUSD,”Schwartz写道,并引用了一个Ripple钱包的列表。
然而,他表示,这种高估的估值将是短暂的,并确信“一旦供应稳定,价格将很快回落到非常接近1美元的水平。如果价格没有回落,那就说明出了大问题。”
Schwartz描述了市场力量的作用,并指出了套利者在稳定RLUSD价格中的角色。套利者预计会通过高价卖出和1美元或更低的价格买入来迅速使RLUSD的价值正常化,从而平衡供需关系。
“请不要因为FOMO而盲目买入稳定币!这不是一个致富的机会,”Schwartz补充道。

XRP Price Hits 7-Year High, Now Up 274% This Month
Bitcoin may be leading the charge across the crypto industry since Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election this month, but XRP—the Ripple-linked asset—is seeing much larger gains of late. And on Saturday, it reached a price not seen in nearly seven years. XRP jumped to a recent high of $1.93 on Saturday, topping the 2021 peak of $1.92. The last time that XRP was worth $1.93 was back in January 2018, according to data from CoinGecko, just after setting its all-time high mark of $3.40. Tha...
这一警告是在Ripple于12月11日获得纽约金融服务部批准后准备推出RLUSD之际发出的。
Schwartz最后提醒投资者,稳定币的主要目的是保持“价格稳定”。虽然在推出期间可能会出现短期价格波动,但稳定币的设计目的是维持其与美元1:1的挂钩。
与此同时,本月早些时候,XRP的价格飙升至七年来的最高点,达到2.74美元——这是自2018年1月以来的最高价格,标志着过去30天内价格增长了五倍。
