SINGAPORE, Aug. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Trident Digital Tech Holdings Ltd (NASDAQ: TDTH), a Singapore-based leader in digital transformation and Web 3.0 activation, today announced plans to pursue regulatory approvals for stablecoin operations across several African countries. The initiative aims to accelerate adoption of Ripple USD (RLUSD) \u2013 Ripple\u2019s U.S. dollar\u2013pegged stablecoin \u2013 to enhance financial inclusion and digital payments infrastructure on the continent.<\/p>\n

Strategic Background<\/strong>
TDTH recently took a pioneering step in corporate crypto strategy, launching a bold initiative to raise up to US\u202f$500 million<\/strong> to establish one of the world\u2019s largest corporate XRP<\/strong> treasuries. The company plans to leverage staking mechanisms and deepen its integration with the Ripple ecosystem. This move underscores TDTH\u2019s commitment to decentralized finance as a catalyst for global financial evolution.<\/p>\n

African Expansion for RLUSD<\/strong>
Building on its Web\u202f3.0 infrastructure expertise and recent public\u2013private partnership in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) to launch of \u201cDRCPass,\u201d TDTH is now extending its ambitions to the stablecoin arena. The company aims to secure stablecoin licenses \u2014 particularly for RLUSD \u2014 in multiple African markets. This will help unlock digital dollar liquidity, improve cross-border payments, and address current local currency liquidity challenges.<\/p>\n

Why RLUSD in Africa Makes Sense<\/strong><\/p>\n

1\uff09Stablecoin momentum<\/strong>: Ripple\u2019s RLUSD has rapidly gained traction, reaching over US\u202f$500 million in circulating supply<\/strong> within months of issuance.<\/p>\n

2\uff09Regional context<\/strong>: Innovation in stablecoin payments across Africa is already underway, including initiatives by Circle\u2019s USDC in collaboration with Onafriq, and Visa\u2019s pilot programs via Yellow Card in selected markets.<\/p>\n

Quote from Leadership<\/strong>
\u201cBy pursuing stablecoin licenses and RLUSD adoption in Africa, we are furthering our mission to enable Web\u202f3.0 transformations in emerging markets,\u201d said Soon Huat Lim, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Trident. \u201cOur success with national digital identity systems and this bold new trajectory into stablecoins reflect our belief: blockchain-native assets can reshape financial infrastructure \u2014 safely, inclusively, and pragmatically.\u201d<\/p>\n

Next Steps<\/strong>
TDTH is in exploratory discussions with regulatory authorities, financial institutions, and local partners to understand licensing pathways and infrastructure needs. The goal is to begin phased rollouts in pilot countries by mid-2026, subject to existing legal frameworks and market readiness.<\/p>\n
