The XRP Community will host an XRP Community Night event during Paris Blockchain Week on April 15th. The event will take place from 7 pm to 10 pm at Solum in Paris, offering free refreshments to users and developers to facilitate networking and interaction. Previously, the XRP Community held a similar event in February of this year at ETHDenver, continuing a tradition dating back to 2018. This gathering comes at a time of favorable regulatory environment, as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently clarified that mature tokens like XRP are not securities.

According to a community-operated Ripple Stablecoin Tracker, Ripple Labs has permanently destroyed 9 million RLUSD stablecoins from its treasury wallet. Previously, Ripple Labs conducted multiple large-scale destruction events in March 2026, including burning 25 million RLUSD on Ethereum and 10 million RLUSD on XRP Ledger. These destruction operations are routine procedures for managing supply and maintaining 1:1 reserve backing. RLUSD currently has a market cap of $1.5 billion, with the community speculating its market cap could reach $2 billion, though recent destruction operations have slowed the growth of net supply.
