Ripple promotes XRP and RLUSD to enter the x402 payment system and launches XRPL toolkit

According to CoinDesk, Ripple is trying to introduce XRP and its stablecoin RippleUSD into the AI proxy payment market to cut into the on-chain micro-payment system still dominated by the U.S. dollar stablecoin USDCoin. Currently, the "XRPLAIStarterKit" has been released to provide developers with a toolset to build AIAgent payment capabilities, allowing agents to complete payments, check balance and wallet operations on XRPLedger, and support automated payment processes based on the x402 protocol. However, Ripple has not disclosed any large-scale customer or real-production AIAgent payment transaction data, and the solution is still in the early exploration stage of the infrastructure and developer ecosystem.
