$GRVT Institutional credit marketplace Clearpool is officially changing its blockchain home as it prepares to replace its key asset. The project's community has overwhelmingly approved — with 97.16% voting in favor — a major expansion onto the $XRP Ledger (XRPL) and the full migration of its native $CPOOL token to a new asset, CLEAR.
The move closes the strategic discussion phase and formally establishes the framework for an alliance with Ripple in the rapidly growing sector of on-chain lending backed by real-world assets (RWA Private Credit).
Unlike traditional DeFi protocols built around speculative loans collateralized by volatile crypto assets, Clearpool is bringing infrastructure to XRPL for financing working capital in the real fintech sector.
The deal's structure is pragmatic: the platform provides the technology rails and smart contracts, credit manager Cicada Partners audits borrowers and underwrites risk, while Ripple joins the pools as a limited partner.
Financing will be conducted exclusively in the dollar stablecoin RLUSD (Ripple USD), giving the coin its first organic circulation among institutional investors. Custody provider Hex Trust, a longtime Ripple partner, will provide additional security and compliance bridges for the arrangement.
Why replace one token with another? (And what does fee burning have to do with it?)
The 1:1 token migration is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026. The team is combining the process with a recapitalization: the initial supply of the new CLEAR asset will rise to 1.125 billion tokens, compared with $CPOOL's previous supply of one billion. To protect investors from dilution, 70% of the new supply will be distributed to current holders at launch.
Developers plan to balance the remaining supply with a strict deflationary mechanism: exactly half of all fees collected by the platform will go to the open market to buy back and permanently burn CLEAR.
The technological foundation for the expansion is also being built with future growth in mind. The product relies entirely on the ledger's native standards — XLS-65 (regulated single-asset pools) and XLS-66 (an unsecured lending protocol). In early October, these amendments are still being tested on Devnet, awaiting the required approval from 80% of validators before full deployment on the XRPL mainnet.
The market, however, reacted to the vote's outcome well in advance. TradingView charts show that $CPOOL has firmly broken out of a year-long accumulation range of around $0.013–$0.020 and reached $0.036554. The current bullish momentum has pushed the price above the medium-term moving average at $0.028192, turning it into a strong support level.
With the asset swap approaching in the fourth quarter, the nearest significant target for buyers remains the long-term resistance zone around $0.101003.

$GRVT TL;DR
RLUSD reached $2.409 billion in circulation, while Ripple reported $2.5315 billion in reserves as of September 24.
Reserves exceeded circulating supply by approximately $122.5 million, representing a cushion of around 5%.
RLUSD continues expanding across Ethereum, XRP Ledger and other networks as Ripple targets institutional payments, settlement and digital-asset liquidity.
Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin has reached $2.409 billion in circulating supply, while reserves stand at $2.5315 billion, according to Ripple’s latest transparency data dated September 24. The figures show continued expansion for the dollar-backed token as Ripple builds RLUSD into its broader payments and institutional digital-asset infrastructure.
The reserve balance sits about $122.5 million above the reported circulating supply, providing a reserve cushion of roughly 5%. Ripple says RLUSD reserves are held in segregated accounts and backed by U.S. dollars, Treasuries and other permitted cash equivalents. The issuer also publishes monthly independent CPA attestations covering circulation and reserve assets.
RLUSD Growth Extends Into Institutional Markets
RLUSD crossed the $2 billion supply level in late August, meaning its reported circulation has increased by more than $400 million since late August. Ripple senior vice president of stablecoins Jack McDonald said on September 30 that RLUSD had grown by more than 50% in a month, while average daily activity had more than tripled since the beginning of 2026.
The stablecoin is issued by Standard Custody & Trust Company, a limited-purpose trust company chartered and supervised by the New York Department of Financial Services. Ripple has also selected BNY as the primary custodian for RLUSD reserves, strengthening the stablecoin’s reserve infrastructure.
Multichain Distribution Broadens RLUSD Liquidity
RLUSD is available across several blockchain networks, including Ethereum, the XRP Ledger, Base, Optimism, Ink, Unichain and the XRPL EVM Sidechain. Ripple’s own platform allows institutions to mint, redeem and manage RLUSD, connecting the stablecoin with treasury and payment workflows.
Ethereum has recently held more RLUSD than the XRP Ledger. On September 30, DefiLlama data put total circulating supply at about $2.521 billion, with roughly $1.396 billion on Ethereum and $1.125 billion on XRPL. The difference from Ripple’s $2.409 billion figure reflects different measurement dates and methodologies, rather than a contradiction between the datasets.
The expansion gives RLUSD a broader role in digital-dollar liquidity. Its growth can support settlement, payments and tokenized-asset activity across multiple networks, while its institutional structure gives businesses another regulated stablecoin option. For XRP, however, RLUSD growth does not automatically translate into equivalent token demand, since the stablecoin can operate without requiring every holder to purchase XRP.
