TREE NEWS update: Ripple Prime has opened round-the-clock swaps tracking Trade.xyz perpetual markets on Hyperliquid, with the platform taking the other side of each trade and accepting RLUSD as collateral. Virtu is already trading the new product, which covers stocks, metals and currencies. The launch extends Ripple’s prime brokerage into 24/7 perpetual-style exposure.

The notable element is structural: a prime brokerage is now warehousing perpetual-style exposure itself, rather than merely clearing it, which puts its balance sheet directly on the other side of every swap. Accepting RLUSD as collateral ties that risk-taking to Ripple's own stablecoin, making the product as much a distribution channel for its token as a trading venue. Virtu's early participation signals institutional plumbing is being tested rather than marketed. Whether other market makers follow, and whether the model's risk controls hold through a stressed session, is the open question.
