Ripple will acquire the stablecoin platform Rail for $200 million.



Ripple has announced that it will acquire Rail, a payment platform for stablecoins based in Toronto, for $200 million. The deal is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025 after receiving regulatory approvals.

According to Ripple President Monica Long, this purchase is very timely, considering the recent changes in the regulatory framework. It expands the company's stablecoin infrastructure with new features — virtual accounts, automated back-office systems.

Stablecoins are quickly becoming the cornerstone of modern finance, and thanks to Rail, we have a unique opportunity to elevate innovation, the adoption of stablecoins, and blockchain in the field of global payments," said Long.
Rail, supported by Galaxy Ventures and Accomplice, processes approximately 10% of all global payments in stablecoins, offering faster and more cost-effective cross-border payments. Therefore, the acquisition will make Ripple "the most complete solution for transactions in stablecoins available on the market."
Experts link the merger of Ripple and Rail to the adoption of a new federal law on stablecoins in the USA. Many see this as a very positive signal, indicating that digital assets pegged to fiat currency will be used by more and more people and companies.
