🚨 GENIUS Act Heads to U.S. Senate Floor
America is now racing to regulate stablecoins — and the bill that just advanced could reshape the financial system.

Here’s the kicker:
Ripple’s RLUSD is coming.
And it’s built for compliance, transparency… and total integration with $XRP.

They mocked stablecoins.
Now they’re writing emergency legislation to control them.

If you think RLUSD is “just another stablecoin,” you’re missing the bigger play:
🔹 It’s Ripple’s entry into programmable money
🔹 It activates institutional liquidity via XRP rails
🔹 And it positions Ripple for CBDC-adjacent dominance

Everything is aligning.
The laws. The tech. The liquidity.

They don’t want you holding XRP when the grid flips.
But it’s already happening.

Nigeria's Ex-Central Bank Chief Reportedly Fights Court Order to Seize 753 Properties

Ex-Governor Godwin Emefiele has appealed to the Court of Appeal in Abuja, challenging a ruling that ordered the forfeiture of a multi-million-naira property portfolio. Emefiele argues he has legal ownership rights, according to local media.

"I was unaware of the forfeiture," he was quoted as saying, claiming that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) published the notice in a "hard-to-notice" section of a newspaper.

The initial court dismissed his objection, stating the EFCC followed proper legal procedures.

Emefiele is currently facing trial on corruption charges.

Nigeria Receives Credit Rating Upgrade From Global Agency

👉 Inflation Easing: Moody’s noted that policy reforms have reduced inflation risks, with early signs of lower inflation and borrowing costs boosting confidence in economic stability.

👉 Earlier this month, the World Bank reported Nigeria's fastest economic growth in a decade in 2024, driven by a strong fourth quarter and better fiscal health. However, the bank cautioned that high inflation remains a challenge.
