The initiative aims to leverage Ripple's USD-backed stablecoin to enhance financial inclusion and accelerate Web3 adoption in key emerging markets.
August 11, 2025

Trident Digital Tech Holdings is actively pursuing regulatory licenses to launch and operate stablecoin services across multiple African countries, focusing on the adoption of Ripple's USD-backed stablecoin, RLUSD. This strategic push is designed to address the demand for transparent and efficient digital dollar access throughout the continent.
The company's efforts are centered on leveraging RLUSD to foster financial inclusion, enabling more seamless cross-border transactions and providing a stable store of value for individuals and businesses. By securing the necessary regulatory approvals, Trident aims to build a compliant foundation for the growth of the digital economy in Africa.
This move signals a broader trend of blockchain and crypto companies targeting emerging markets for growth. The success of this initiative will depend on navigating the complex and varied regulatory landscapes of the different African nations, but it underscores the growing importance of stablecoins in the future of global finance.
