According to a Wednesday update, it has enhanced integration with digital asset exchange Bullish. 

The extended partnership grants Ripple Prime's institutional clients direct access to regulated Bitcoin (BTC) options markets. The red-hot RLUSD stablecoin will notably be used for facilitating trades.

Last year, Ripple Platform logged a staggering $3 trillion in transaction volume.  

Previously, its users were able to connect to Bullish’s spot markets, perpetual swaps, and dated futures.

The addition of BTC options is rather notable given that it opens access to what Bullish claims is the second-largest market by open interest for crypto-settled options for the flagship coin.

The deployment of capital can be performed via existing sub-account structures in no time. Hence, there is actually no need to deal with additional Know Your Customer (KYC) hurdles. 

Furthermore, clients can use stablecoins, specifically Ripple USD (RLUSD), to trade these options directly.

Executives from both companies argue that the move is a response to maturing market demands.  

According to Mike Higgins, International CEO at Ripple Prime, this upcoming feature will make it possible for institutions to improve capital efficiency when using multiple exchanges.
